Until World War II, and after

A. Lange & Söhne is the trademark of Lange Uhren GmbH. In fact, the company The original A. Lange & Söhne was nationalized in 1948, meaning it went from private to public ownership following the Soviet Union's rise to power after World War II. The current trademark was re-registered when the company Lange Uhren GmbH was founded in 1990 by Walter Lange. The company was re-established on the exact date, 145 years after Walter's great-grandfather, Ferdinand Adolph Lange, founded the original company. The new company introduced its new range of wristwatches as early as 1994. .

Starting in 2000, the brand A. Lange & Söhne became part of the group Richemont, and since then it has been considered a boutique company that produces only about 5000 watches a year. The company employs about 250 expert watchmakers, and about 250 additional employees, and since 1997 it has also established a private watchmaking school. .

The brand's leading watch series

The dial shows the hours and minutes, while a smaller dial shows the seconds.
