With more than 200 photographs and specifications for 32 watches, this book provides a comprehensive history of one of Germany’s finest watchmakers and its timepieces. Since its founding in 1845, A.

From the rare 1A-quality works that command top dollars at auctions to its more affordable and modern Lange 1, Arkade, and Saxonia models, the company’s high-quality timepieces and the people behind the brand are detailed. From rare and historical pocket watches to the company’s line of modern wristwatches, all conserve the philosophy of a man instrumental to the evolution of mechanical timekeeping. Journalist and author Harry Niemann has been writing about watches since 1992. He’s been the senior archivist and historian at Daimler Benz AG for more than two decades.
