A. Lange & Söhne - An Avalanche of Awards
GPHG 2013
At the "Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Geneve" the 1815 RATTRAPANTE PERPETUAL CALENDAR received not one but two awards during a gala event held at the Grand Theâtre in Geneva on 15 November. The international 23-member expert jury selected it as winner in the category "Grand Complication". For the first time in the history of the competition, a non-Swiss watch brand was honoured in this category. In addition, the watch, introduced at the beginning of this year, also received the competition's "Public Prize". The 1815 RATTRAPANTE PERPETUAL CALENDAR combines a split-seconds chronograph with a perpetual calendar that does not need to be corrected until the year 2100, and then by only one day.
MunichTime & ViennaTime
Just a few days before the GPHG, the 1815 RATTRAPANTE PERPETUAL CALENDAR had received the audience award in the highest category at the Munichtime watch exhibition. At both Munichtime and its sister event Viennatime, watch enthusiasts voted it the best watch in the group "Complicated Mechanics". The SAXONIA AUTOMATIC also garnered two accolades: at both events it was the first choice in the category "Feminine Aesthetics". And finally in Munich, the GRAND LANGE 1 "Lumen" was chosen as the contest-winner among classically elegant watches.
Walter Lange
On 13 November, the "Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie" (FHH - Foundation for the Promo-tion of Fine Watchmaking) honoured Walter Lange in Lausanne with the "Hommage a la Passion" for his lifetime achievement. The jury comprising of 18 international watch experts praised him as "the man who engineered the fabulous reawakening of A. Lange & Söhne".
A total of 19 awards in 2013
In autumn, A. Lange & Söhne received further prizes in Mexico and Poland. At the Salón Internacional Alta Relojería (SIAR) in Mexico City, the first prize in the category "Grand Complication" was awarded to Lange's GRAND COMPLICATION, presented earlier this year. The brand's most complex wristwatch of all times was declared winner, both in the disciplines "Complicated Watches" and "Watch of the Year 2013" at a competition organised by the watch portal Chronos24.pl in Warsaw.
With a total of 19 awards in 2013, A. Lange & Söhne can look back on one of the most successful years in the history of the manufactory. Since presentation of the first collection of the new era in 1994, the brand has reaped an impressive number of some 200 awards.
