A. Lange & Söhne, a prestigious German watchmaking brand, traces its origins back to 1845 when Ferdinand Adolph Lange founded the company in Glashütte, Germany. Renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship and rich heritage, the brand quickly gained recognition for its precision engineering and innovative designs.
Despite enduring political and economic challenges, A. Lange & Söhne remained dormant during the 20th century. However, in 1990, Ferdinand Adolph Lange's great-grandson, Walter Lange, revived the brand by establishing Lange Uhren GmbH.
Today, A. Lange & Söhne stands tall as one of the world's finest watchmakers; each timepiece is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship. Skilled artisans blend traditional techniques with modern technology, creating masterpieces that have adorned the wrists of notable patrons such as German Emperor Wilhelm II, Abdul Hamid II of the Ottoman Empire, and Alexander II of Russia.
Since 2000, Lange Uhren GmbH has operated as a subsidiary of the Swiss Richemont Group, further solidifying its position in the luxury watch market. A. Lange & Söhne's watches boast a distinctive Glashütte style, characterized by intricate movements and Teutonic design elements.
Continuing its legacy of innovation, A. Lange & Söhne's current model families encompass a range of styles and complications. From the iconic Lange 1 to the innovative Zeitwerk, Saxonia, 1815, Richard Lange, and Odysseus, each timepiece showcases the brand's unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of quality craftsmanship.
