A. Lange & Söhne

Congratulations to these eight young talents who successfully completed their three-year apprenticeship and therefore mastered the art of watchmaking. We are proud that most of them will continue to be part of the next generation of watchmakers at A. Lange & Söhne. Furthermore, it is also a pleasure for us to welcome this year’s new apprentices, who will start their training at the end of July. Twenty ambitious young people will enter our world of precision and become part of traditional fine watchmaking. We wish all our new watchmakers and apprentices a great time at A. Lange & Söhne, filled with rich experience and valuable knowledge. Discover more about the apprenticeship programmes at A.

When it comes to crafting timepieces, our watchmakers face a number of challenges, especially when multiple complications are incorporated in one timepiece. Our latest debut, which we presented at Watches and Wonders 2024 in Geneva, the DATOGRAPH PERPETUAL TOURBILLON HONEYGOLD “Lumen”, combines three classic complications, each presenting their own demanding challenges. However, as our complications are equipped with further, elaborate additional functions that are rarely or even only realised by our manufacture, we take the challenge to new heights. Constructing these and allowing a harmonious interplay, represent the greatest challenge for our watchmakers. The first complication within our debut is the chronograph, which is additionally equipped with a flyback function and an exact jumping minute counter. To ensure that the interplay of the functions is flawless and perfectly synchronised, our watchmakers need to adjust and fine-tune the interaction of the many levers and springs. In our new timepiece, the perpetual calendar is additionally equipped with our jumping displays and our typical outsize date. This construction poses a number of challenges for our watchmakers. For instance, they must set the precise jumping time of all the displays exactly for midnight and assemble the large number of individual parts, which alone presents a formidable challenge. The last complication is the classic minute tourbillon which contains a stop-seconds mechanism. By adding this feature, our watchmakers were confronted with major challenges of accommodating 68 parts in a tiny carriage and then adjusting them.

Twenty-five years of refined functionality, the DATOGRAPH. Developed under Günter Blümlein’s visionary auspices, the DATOGRAPH was our first chronograph after our brand’s renaissance in 1990. Launched in 1999, it was a masterpiece that set a benchmark in short-time measurement. Its technical finesse and harmonious dial design set a new benchmark in the world of watchmaking and showcased our innovative abilities.  Over the years, we have continued to elevate this timepiece with new colours, materials, and complications. Notable milestones include the introduction of the first DATOGRAPH with a perpetual calendar in 2006. Followed by the DATOGRAPH UP/DOWN with a power reserve indicator in 2012. Then, in 2016, we introduced our DATOGRAPH PERPETUAL TOURBILLON, a technically impressive timepiece with a superbly organised face despite the density of information it displays. In 2018, the DATOGRAPH UP/DOWN “Lumen” joined the DATOGRAPH family with its semi-transparent dial and a luminous compound that causes all displays to glow in the darkness. Now, as we celebrate 25 years of this chronograph’s history, we are proud to introduce two new DATOGRAPH timepieces.

Highly sophisticated functions meet a well-balanced dial. Designing and crafting top-class chronographs ranks among the greatest challenges in precision watchmaking. In 1999, just five years after the launch of our first collection, we presented our first DATOGRAPH with a completely newly developed chronograph calibre, which was an absolute exceptional achievement at the time.   To mark the 25th anniversary of the pioneering DATOGRAPH, we now present the DATOGRAPH UP/DOWN model in 18-carat white gold with a blue dial, limited to 125 watches. The classic column-wheel chronograph allows time measurements with an accuracy of one-fifth of a second. With its flyback mechanism, precisely jumping minute counter, outsize date, and power-reserve indicator, the new debut is in a league of its own. We invite you to discover both of our new DATOGRAPH timepieces on our website: https://bit.ly/4chXU87 #alangesoehne #langesaxonia #datographupdown #25yearsdatograph #athomeinunchartedterritories #watchesandwonders2024  

One of our most technically and aesthetically sophisticated timepieces.   Twenty-five years after the launch of the DATOGRAPH, we introduce a lustrous new interpretation: the DATOGRAPH PERPETUAL TOURBILLON HONEYGOLD “Lumen”. We are presenting our sophisticated timepiece combining a flyback chronograph with a precise jumping minute counter, perpetual calendar, and tourbillon with a stop-seconds mechanism at this year’s Watches and Wonders in Geneva.   The true challenge in creating the timepiece lay not only in the development of these complications but in complementing the precisely harmonised interaction between the highly complex mechanisms with a balanced dial design. Moreover, the timepiece comes in Lange-exclusive honey gold (HONEYGOLD®) and with a “Lumen” function. It is limited to 50 watches.   Discover it in every detail on our website: https://bit.ly/4chXU87   #alangesoehne #langesaxonia #datographperpetualtourbillonhoneygoldlumen #25yearsdatograph #athomeinunchartedterritories #watchesandwonders2024
