Lange & Söhne CROCODILE strap Dial: Blue Movement: Manual Functions: Oversized date and power reserve Buckle: 18k white gold A. Lange & Söhne buckle Remark: According to A. Lange & Söhne, the current watch was produced circa 1997 and is one of the first examples of reference 101.027 to be sold. It was presented at the Baselworld watch trade fair in April 1997. The first Lange 1 to be produced in white gold and the first to have a blue dial, reference 101.027 was in production for only five years between 1997 and 2002. The combination of the white gold case and blue dial is truly stunning. Traditionally sized at 38,5 mm, the case has a glazed display case back to view the beauty and finish of the original Lange 1 movement, the calibre L901.0. Very rarely seen at auction, this Lange 1 showcases Lange & Söhne’s watchmaking at its very best and offers collectors the chance to obtain an undoubted icon of the brand in exceptional condition.
