Prestigious accolades continue to roll in for German luxury watch manufacture A. Lange & Sohne.  At the Salon International Alta Relojeria in Mexico City on October 1st, the manufacture’s recently introduced Lange Zeitwerk timepiece claimed a “Watch of the Year” prize from the jury who recognized its “great artistic originality”.  This timepiece, showcases a brilliant digital jumping indication for both hours and minutes in concert with a power reserve indicator and elapsed seconds display.  These sophisticated functions are combined with delightful symmetry upon solid silver dials, and are animated by an entirely new in-house A. Lange & Sohne manually wound movement.

Just prior to that occasion, in the final week of September, A. Lange & Sohne’s Richard Lange “Pour le Merite” watch took double honors at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie Asia in Singapore–”Watch of the Year” and “Best Men’s Watch”.  A haute horlogerie masterpiece of impeccable elegance and understatement, the Richard Lange PLM presents one of the most challenging and artful complications to be implemented in a wristwatch: a complex fusee and chain system which provides constant operating torque and consequently, optimized precision.
