Words: Gentleman's Journal
In 1994, Walter Lange showcased his horological family’s first new watch since the end of World War II. That watch was the Lange 1, and now, it has had a serious upgrade.
To celebrate 22 successful years since the first product launch – a time during which Lange has become one of the most respected and coveted brands in the watch world – the company have revealed a limited run of the Lange 1 Time Zone in ‘honey gold’.
With a 72 hour power reserve and movement built on German silver, the Lange 1 has an offset dial and is complimented by a ‘big date’ complication activated by the pusher at 10 o’clock.
The chronograph in the watch has always been designed and built in-house, and a peripheral city ring makes it possible to set the zone times with pushbutton convenience.
The new, celebratory case, adds a little something extra to the heritage of this excellent watch. Harder than other gold alloys, the exclusive ‘honey gold’ material from which the case is crafted is 18-carat and has a diameter of 41.9 milimetres.
Limited to 100 watches, the Lange 1 Time Zone is available exclusively in the brand’s 17 boutiques around the world, from Turin to Tokyo.
