A. Lange & Sohne 2009 Lange 1 Time Zone 116.026 18k White Gold Watch

The A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1 Time Zone Ref. 116.026 is a distinguished example of Saxon haute horlogerie, crafted in 18k white gold and released in 2009 as a limited edition of only 100 pieces. Measuring 41.9mm, the case houses the in-house manual-wind caliber L031.1, featuring a twin mainspring barrel with approximately 72 hours of power reserve. The silver dial showcases the iconic off-center Lange 1 layout with a large double date, local and home time displays, day/night indicators, and a city ring for global time zone adjustment. Through the sapphire caseback, the movement reveals traditional Glashütte finishing, including German silver plates, blued screws, gold chatons, and hand-engraved balance cock. A refined and technically accomplished world-time complication from one of watchmaking’s most revered manufactures.
