Always a pleasure to discover the latest models from famed German watchmaker during the SIHH and I must say that I was not disappointed.
2019 marks an important anniversary year for them with the 25th anniversary of the Lange 1, undoubtedly one of the most iconic watch of the contemporary watchmaking scene, but also and simply put, the watch with which it all started for the them and the revival of this historic name.
But the good news didn't stop there with for instance a date version of the Zeitwerk and a superb gold dial version of the Datograph and still some more. So please enjoy this extensive coverage of their new timepieces with no other than the one and only Anthony De Haas, Director of Product Development.
Viva Watchmaking!!!

A. Lange in my opinion is producing some of the most beautifully designed watches in the industry. Leaving the rest in the dust. Pure class to say the least.
I continue to watch these videos to find inspiration, aspiration and relaxation.
Thank you A. Lange & Sohne for the continuing extraordinary work.
One day I will purchase my first.
This guy catches me with his storytelling. Very passioned man
He definitely knows how to do this!!!
Very good manager...
Tbh he is on par with the watches. thats saying something. Such a character Lange couldnt find a better man....... excluding the man the legend Jean-Claude Biver of course!
Amazing character! What an enthusiastic head of development. These, for me, are truly holy grail watches (and the Zeitwerk, in any iterations bar the Minute Repeater, the holiest of all).
That Datograph is just unbelievably gorgeous. One day...one day...
Oh yes, i hear you 🙏😋
I'll be wearing with you vicariously
A. Lange & Söhne is a revolution indeed.
Marc dress up for the occasion, my holy grail brand that set deep in my heart...
The movements of all Lange make me go gaga.... it is more than a watch, is an art! The 25 anniversary Lage 1 with blue highlight is extremely tastefully done up. I will attain it someday, yes for a non watch lover they will think I'm sick or stupid to pay for something that only tell time but is the craftsmanship & the pride to be able to own a timepiece from the best watch maker in the market that make it all so worth it. Thanks Marc for this in-depth interview.
They are the best watchmakers. Pure art and engineering.
The brand name sounds so classy. And love the German design. Clean & classy.
Lange continues to amaze. They rightfully take pride in their work. Thanks for this wonderful video, The Watches.tv!
I want them all! Beautiful watches!
The esthetics of A. Lange und Soehne mechanisms is spellbinding !
Is there an end to ingenuity of A. Lange und Soehne enginieers? Is there a limit to the beauty of the craft of A. Lange und Soehne watchmakers?
Yes ! There is ! For both !
For A. Lange und Soehne sky is the limit !!!
I'm amazed how every watch of the A.Lange & Söhne range comes across as perfectly done, Regardless of each watch's characteristics, e.g Subdials or oversized date
When I first started to appreciated high horology I thought the Zeitwerk was a little gimmicky, now its the best thing I've ever seen . 👍
Fully get you!
A. Lange & Söhne one of the best watches in the world amazing ... no words
no words.....totally agree. incredible..no words..
They are the best
Always a pleasure to watch...
Viva watchmaking
Can't blame Patek for those restless nights when ALS is on the scene...
WOW That's a great video. Like a master class in watch making. Never knew their was so much engineering involved.
How did they reach the top of haute horology in just 25 years. Truly amazing.
Modifications on existing movements & celebration 🍾 of history with limited editions being the order of the day @ ALS. I personally love 💕 their Richard Lange pour Le Mérite Tourbillon launched in 2011. Love ❤️ the way they’ve innovated on the jumping seconds complication watch.
Incredible interview and incredible video!!!
A Lange & Sohne, mans great gift to horology, simply magnificent!!!!
That's a nice of way of putting it!!
Lange always put an smile on my face 😊 Viva watchmaking!!
A. Lange & Söhne makes the best watches, no contest.
Zeitwerk takes my heart. Those windows, oh...
I love Lange! Truly, they set the mark for high horology going well above the so called Holy Trinity. I must say your coverage of these watches is also world class and Herr de Hass is wonderful and engaging presenter. Thanks for your work Marc and nice suit!
Wow, thank you!
3:40 jupp this is getting age restriction
It is definitely watch porn at its finest.
Beware these are not watches, its pure magic.
this is by far the most elegant watch...
They never cease to impress us with those AMAZING quality pieces! Lange is the best! 👌😍
The most beautiful watches on the planet!
I like how Mr Haas describes the watches.
Beautiful pieces ....top notch!!
Fantastic interview!
Thanks!
I highly enjoyed this great interview! It is a show of respect toward your channel that these individuals are giving you so much of their time and banter. And of course, you always choose the right people to interview. On a side note, Lange & Söhne really belongs in a class of its own: ultraluxury (or exceptional and complete horology) without the extreme exclusivity quotas for those (more than a few) of us who admire horological prowess. It is great to see that they are successfully continuing their unmitigated and tireless quest for perfection. Bravo!
Well said!
Totally agreed, Marc’s the main man
3:49 Good god. If I had this thing I would be tempted to wear it inside out.
so true, who needs to tell the time anyway :D
Such as amazing watch brand, the movement on all of their are first glass, particularly the triple split model...very close to pulling the trigger and purchasing a few of these times pieces for my growing collection
One the best pioneers in the business. Greatness.
Well summarised!
Best brand, best watches, best people, 😍😍
Nicely said!
It's always a pleasure to see Anthony De Haas geek out on watches. "evolution you say? I would prefer it almost a revolution". He is also always the salesman too. xD
One of my favorite watches. I just wish the date window had a 0 in front of the first 9 days of the month because it looks a little weird with an empty box, anyone else agree?
Again. Lange is my favorite brand and I guess I’m just being nick picky because they have some of the best watches in the world and there’s really nothing bad anyone could say about one of these watches. Just pure beauty and the work behind it is even more amazing than the watch itself.
What a beautiful watches! Amazing.
What a brand!!! I can't wait to see a sports watch from them...
Love A Lange, in my opinion the best watch out there!
That datograph is stunning!!
It really is!!!
Rolex is a toy brand compared to Lange.
Not really comparable, but I understand your comment ;) Best to you
Rolex is like a Swatch compare to the A. Lange & Söhne
I think the comparable declining brand is GO, GO had made some great watch models in the past but not in the recent few years. But Moritz Grossmann Glashutte is up and coming.
Rolex is still a very good solid watch. I do like that about them. But they could put a lot more time into finishing work. Do they still make kustom movements for watches by some chance Rolex? My absolute favorite watch of all time is F. P. Journ company watches. But alas the prices are stupid high sorry to say. Love those Journ watches but why do they all have to have such high end prices?? I really think it should cost so much less??? All these modern high end watch companies all use computers to develop watch parts. Then to design and practically build the whole watch. By using CNC machines for all the little parts. But it still has a lot of hand work to clean up the parts after machining. I guess it depends on how fancy a watch you want.
you cant afford any of the shitbird
Now i dont have to feel miserable, not being able to get in there as a watchmaker apprentice (Grenchen Zeitzentrum), because thanks to you, you shot those videos and now i can watch those coming up videos where you can go in depth with the different brands at SIHH.
God damn it, those watches actually cause me a painful yearning inside.... "honey gold"? Perfection.
My personal favorite Marquee. They're not watches, they're literally small machines. My current daily is a GO, but if I was ever in a position to move to any Lange I would jump at the chance.
The way he says " sold out " is like Al Pacino saying 5 diamonds in Oceans 13
Hahaha, didn't see it like this ;) Thanks and best to you
Without a doubt the biggest hard hitters in the horology world now.
My new favourite piece
Wow Lange lighting it up 🔥🔥🔥
The best.
Many thanks
Very welcome and thanks to you!
If anyone can take Patek Philippe & Vacheron Constantin to school, it will be A. Lange
As long as people are paying way over retail for 2nd hand Pateks and ALS 2nd hands are going for half price, I don't see that happening. They may be on a similar level of watchmaking, but totally different levels regarding prestige and status.
@@Ozmeister666 Who cares about prestige and status. Well informed people understand what's what. For those who aren't, Rolex is still probably the best luxury watchmaker in the world.
@@Ozmeister666 Patek also is quite soft on most models except the steel Nautilus. AL&S does not make a steel sports watch.
Nah. 🙀 I think FP. Journ is the best looking an working movements around. And my Glashutte pano reserve is super clean an fine working watch I love it. It did cost a lot back then. It was brand new never seen until the watch convention show that I was at. I still have the special wood , leather lined boxes and all my original papers just squirreled away. I try to keep it realistic on prices of watches from $2,000 to $20,000. Anymore than that it has to be very special. I wish I could play with the high price watches but such is life. I have some watches I consider my pet favorites. Small time watch makers just starting out and I try to buy some of their unique pieces. I found a German artist who only makes 30-50 hand made watches each year. And mostly out of stainless steel, some gold for bushings and train wheels this tourbillon movement works wonderfully never had a single problem in 5 years now. Part of the Glashutte watch company. Same super watches but just a little bit less fancy in polish work.
Simply perfect
That Lange 1 is stunning, more so than the original. Not sure about the hunter case back though. It must add at least a couple of mm to thickness.
I HOPE SOMEDAY I WILL GET IT...SOMEDAY..
Understand the feeling!
Perfection! Forget the Holy Trinity, Lange beats all of them combined
Marc André you may well be the best dressed man of SIHH 2019. Dapper!
Thank you, appreciated ;)
Forget Patek Phillipe, A. Lange & Sohne is the holy grail.
Yeah, thats why you everybody can get an ALS at an AD for retail and people are paying 50% over retail for 2nd hand Pateks. ALS are spectacular, but they'll never reach the prestige of Patek.
Schleberger the prestige has nothing to do with quality or other objective reasons - its just the name. if the name justifies this overprized tag for you - ok
the holy grail should sth be what is as perfect as possible; and not a expensive a possible because a name.
@@jkpd9743 watches are jewelry, which is all about prestige. ofc watch nuts dont care about that, but 99% of all watch buyers do
Even if patek had only half the quality of a lange, it would still be twice the watch to 99% of all watch buyers.
@Kerim Temel maybe thats true. If you compare them on the 2nd hand market youll see that Pateks hold or rise in value while Langes mostly drop heavily
@@Ozmeister666 Based on what you're saying Rolex must be the best brand by far since you say, "watches are jewelry, which is all about prestige." The Qty of people that recognize Rolex is immensely higher than any other luxury watch brand. If you care about resell value you sure must think Supreme clothing is the best quality clothing in the world ROFL. So dumb. Obviously people are saying A Lange & Sohne represents a higher quality piece in finishing and aesthetics than a Patek. You're the only one mentioning resale value retention. Also your 99% of people would disagree about Patek falling behind Lange in production quality doesn't hold water in this forum. Please take a poll and see if you can ever find a target group that agrees with you.
A. Lange & Söhne keeps hitting home runs. These are all lovely timepieces. Why so much more for the date?
Awesome, just awesome 😍😍😍😍
Nice!!!
A.L&S blow my mind. Take my money
If I had the money I'd have one on my wrist right now!
Patek pursues 3D, Seiko pursues more and more analog, and Lange is moving toward analog-based digitalization.
Beautiful piece elegant
Now I want a moonphase integrated with the small seconds in the new Zeitwerk
Wooooow!!! The word revolution falls short.
lange is something else...
The jumping seconds show in this video (the LE 100) appears to have black hands and no red markings on the dial - is that correct or is it just the lighting?
Beautiful collection. Wish if I could afford one 😀
This company is pretty amazing...
Truly sublime watches.... IMO better than Patek Philippe.
1:35 I can watch this all day
Will the thinner case and new barrel be introduced in the non date version too?
Such beauties every one of them. Well out my reach I’m afraid but one can dream. Not even held one.
Another excellent and informative video.
Many thanks!!!
Wow, I have only seen the outer-ring date indicators on this zeitwerk and a Nomos watch from last year or so. Have any other models implicated this? I’d assume for zeitwerk, having another window for date would mess with the aesthetics so they just did away with having the whole ring on display?
Please make a nice large poster from the movement of the rose gold watch.
Mr.Mad you just poke the bear inside of me with this presentation, best of the bests according to me by the way, A.Lange & Söhne and these extraordinary time pieces, you just can't decide which one to buy!? Well I would have bought all of them, hahaha only if I could affortd ofcourse hahahah, hejdå från moderlandet🇸🇪
exquisite and almost unobtainable, id spent that money on a house deposit first, hopefully i can buy one of these in 10 years time lol
Perfection wow
Amazing Piece, Marc could you ask if the brand is thinking to release the striking Zeitwert with the date, out of curiosity, that Would be sublime
Would be really complicated with the gongs going around the case though.
What masterpieces. After a little, they will annihilate all the rest watchmakers. Great.
i'm flagging this video for pornography...dear god! A. Lange just DO NOT disappoint! Amazing!
Hahaha, but I get your point!!
Zeitwerk Date. WOW!
Yes, super cool!!!
@@WATCHESTVcom IMO the Zeitwerk line by A. Lange & Söhne and the Glashütte Original Senator Cosmopolite watches should get way more attention from the watch community.
Did they give any credit to Nomos for the date solution? I'm surprised that Nomos didn't patent it.
A.Lange & Sohne with a Dutch dip !! Nice.
I. Must. Stop. Drooling.
We understand ;)
I like A.Lange&Sound.
They are the best watch manufacturer in the world. Deutsches engineering ist das beste engineering
another opinion based on the myth.
A, Lange is what l go for if it were an option!
Wow! Lange is the best!! I love that salmon dial! Zeitwerk with the date is genius!
I'm going to take a lot of negative comments here (and rightfully so), but I think Lange is just a better company than Patek. Their designs are so well thought out and unique. The movements are other worldly.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏LANGE LANGE !!!!!!!
I know but why not? Im sure they can do it as well JLC did the perpetual calendar with the gyroturbillion, anything is possible we can dream of that :)
Never use the word "evolution" in front of a marketing or sales guys. For them even a sneeze is revolutionary.
solar lange?? in the far space??
My Grail Watch
Lange & Söhne
- some idea for watch FE and dials are the Sun Moon
- and at finally some reality how it is
They should come out with a diver or some kind of sports watch hopefully next yr.
