HISTORY OF TIME: LANGE 1
The A. Lange & Söhne: Lange 1 1994 watch, has become the most iconic watch in the Saxon watchmaker’s collection. The watch is deeply influenced by its German heritage, taking inspiration from the Five-Minute Clock found in the Sempra Opera House in Dresden, Germany. The Five-Minute Clock was built on request of the King Frederick Augustus II of Saxony in order to allow everyone at the opera house to read clearly the time without disturbing the musical performance by activating minute repetitions. This mechanism is captured in the Lange 1 and is what helped give it its iconic status.
