In early 2017, during the SIHH, Walter Lange, the founder of A. Lange & Söhne and a direct descendant of Ferdinand Adolph Lange, who founded the company on 7 December 1845, sadly passed away. In order to pay tribute to this humble and charming man, the company decided to create a homage watch, just the way he wanted (a watch that Walter Lange always dreamed of, without seeing it being made… until now). Available to the public in the 3 colours of gold, one additional piece has been created, in stainless steel. And this steel A. Lange & Söhne 1815 ‘Homage To Walter Lange’ will be auctioned by Phillips Watches in May 2018.
