Glashütte, July 2011
Ever since its first appearance in 1994, the LANGE TOURBILLON “Pour le Mérite” has established itself as one of the most fascinating wristwatches in the world. The complication with its legendary fusée-and-chain transmission has spurred the comeback of the A. Lange & Söhne brand more than any model apart from the LANGE 1. Limited to just 200 exemplars, this timepiece is one of the manufactory’s most sought-after models among collectors and fetches record prices at auction.
The fascinating story of this extraordinary watch and the three other “Pour le Mérite” models is now set out in the high-class coffee table book “A. Lange & Söhne: The ‘Pour le Mérite’ Collection”. It has been written by watch expert Peter Chong, a long time insider of the brand and founding moderator of the A. Lange & Söhne forum at the international internet platform “Timezone.com”.
