We perfect this watch by hand. Even though you will probably never see many of the levers, wheels, and springs in the movement of the GRAND LANGE 1, Lange’s master watchmakers lavishly refine them by hand. No matter how tiny or hidden a part may be, each one is endowed with a specific type of finissage and must comply with the most stringent artisanal and aesthetic standards. In all A. Lange & SÖhne timepieces, the movement components are decorated, polished, and engraved according to venerable traditions. All the edges of A. Lange & Sohne Boutique: 14 Martin Place Sydney · 61 2 9223 0088
Even the parts that you can’t see. plates, bridges, and levers are chamfered, which means they are bevelled at a constant angle and then polished. Some bridges and particularly the balance cock are adorned in a special way: with a hand-engraved floral pattern that makes each Lange watch oneof-a-kind. To make sure the lavish decorations and the precise interaction of several hundred individual parts do not remain totally concealed, each Lange watch is fitted with a sapphire-crystal caseback. Treat yourself to a closer look. www.alange-soehne.com
