Though found in watches like the Zeitwerk or the Langematik Sax-O-Mat, it’s in the Lange 1 that it’s shown to the greatest effect. Alongside other details such as asymmetrical sub-dials depicting the hours and sub-seconds, and the A. Lange \u0026amp; Söhne signature with its famous ampersand, it shows a clarity of vision that is wholly Lange. And while the Lange 1 has seen many versions, from a tourbillon to the Timezone, it’s the original that has become the symbol of the maison — and perhaps even the symbol of modern watchmaking itself. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis particular example from the early 2000s, housed in a 38.5mm 18K rose gold case with a sapphire crystal and sapphire case back, features a matching 18K polished bezel; a grey dial with subsidiary hours and minutes at 9 o'clock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e; a seconds register at o'clock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e; a power reserve indicator at 3 o'clock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e; a framed date window at o'clock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e; applied rose gold indices; and a matching handset.
