Of the four watches that was launched then, only the Lange 1 remains in the catalogue to this very day, a legacy that places it squarely in the pantheon of all-time classic watches. The Lange 1 Time Zone, launched in 2005 and presented here, is an evolution of this icon. The design stays true to the Lange 1 blueprint with its offset date, time, and power reserve displays; but it manages to integrate additional date/night indicators and a second timezone display neatly into the package. The overall result is a sophisticated timepiece that is a joy to travel with, the perfect watch for the elegant traveling lady or gentleman. Discontinued recently in 2020, the firm released an upgraded Lange 1 Timezone fitted with the firm's new cal. L141.1. Presented in pristine condition, the present lot includes all of its accompanying accessories.
