A. Lange & Söhne – Great Timepieces from Saxony
Glashütte, December 2011
Reinhard Meis’ book entitled “A. Lange & Söhne – Great Timepieces from Saxony” is a standard work of encyclopaedic precision and a must for every true aficionado of mechanical watchmaking.
“Future needs heritage” – these were the words with which German philosopher Odo Marquard summarised his insight that the new world cannot exist without the legacy of the old one. The same words aptly describe the quintessence of Reinhard Meis’ standard work devoted to A. Lange & Söhne, probably Germany’s most famous watch brand. With his profoundly detailed knowledge, the author builds a bridge from the grand heritage of the brand in the 19th century to its current eminence at the pinnacle of international precision watchmaking.
