A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1 Time Zone Black Dial White Gold 136.029

The A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1 Time Zone ref. 136.029 is a masterclass in mechanical complexity and elegant design, embodying the precision and prestige of German watchmaking. This striking model features a 41.9mm white gold case, housing a deep black dial crafted from solid silver with asymmetrical elements that have become hallmarks of the Lange 1 family.

The dial presents two time displays — the larger off-center subdial shows local time, while the smaller one at 5 o’clock indicates a second time zone, complete with a city ring allowing quick reference to 24 global time zones. The day/night indicators for both time zones, the outsize date, and the power reserve indicator are seamlessly integrated, delivering impressive legibility and functionality.

Powering the watch is the in-house L141.1 manual-wind movement, visible through the sapphire caseback. The movement boasts a 72-hour power reserve and showcases traditional Glashütte finishing, including a three-quarter plate, hand-engraved balance cock, and gold chatons secured with blued screws.

Fitted with a hand-stitched black leather strap and a matching white gold buckle, the 136.029 is both refined and practical — a sophisticated companion for the global traveler who values craftsmanship, clarity, and timeless design.
