A Lange and Sohne Replica
The watchmaking name of A. Lange & Sohne was first established in 1868 by Aldoph Lange in the town of Glasshutte, Saxony. The firm established itself as makers of distinctive timepieces, and had an illustrious history. Reinhard Meis' excellent book: "A. Lange & Sohne - The Watchmakers of Dresden", translated by Alan Downing devotes much space to the history, and gives a good account of the watches made.
A. Lange und Sohne has attained a singularly impressive stature within the world of high horology brands during its surprisingly short existence as a "reborn" company. Even the most established and insular of the traditional haute horlogerie industry privately praise the achievements of the company.
