Pour le Mérite! While, formally, there is no exclamation at the end of this model name, it certainly deserves it. When this watch was released shortly after the re-launch of the A. Lange & Sohne brand in 1994, it was a bold statement that German watchmaking was right there with the best of Switzerland. The calibre L902.0 movement is notable not just for the presence of a tourbillon, but also a fusee-and-chain transmission system—an intricate feature that ensures constant force delivery to the escapement, enhancing accuracy. Produced in a highly limited series of just 150 watches, this horological wonder is not to be missed in our Important Watches I auction at #SothebysGeneva on 5 November, presented in partnership with silverseacruises. #ALangeSoehne
