On 18 January 2017, A. Lange & Söhne went live on Facebook at the SIHH in Geneva, Switzerland. Host Piers Gibbon, A. Lange & Söhne Director of Product Development Anthony de Haas and HODINKEE founder Ben Clymer discussed various questions - on this year’s debuts but also about the world of Lange in general - sent in by the Facebook audience. Watch the entire conversation.

The exclusive mechanical timepieces by A. Lange & Söhne are crafted from precious materials with the utmost of artisanal skill and only in small editions. They are guardians of a horological culture that is handed down from generation to generation and that began in 1845, when Ferdinand A. Lange founded his watch manufactory in Glashütte, Sachsen. After the German Reunification, his great-grandson Walter Lange re-founded the manufactory after its expropriation in the late 1940s. Ferdinand A. Lange’s ambition to define benchmarks with timepieces of the manufactory is still reflected in every single Lange watch.

Absolutely the best watch manufacturer in the world. Remain simple and distance yourself from Hodinkee and Mr. Clymer.

Everybody looked bored, Mr De Haas also takes a while to express his ideas....but i loved this video, it gave me so much more knowledge on watchmaking and WHY A. Lange is special. It truly makes me understand the pricetag of these watches....maybe one day
