There have been, since A. Lange & Söhne launched its first collections in 1994, two basic versions of the Lange 1, not including all the complications and special editions. The basic Lange 1, with its signature big date display and asymmetric but balanced dial design, has in terms of cosmetics and overall design, changed almost not at all since 1994 – there have been some very minute tweaks to the “Made In Germany” typeface and virtually invisible changes to the bezel, but the basic 38.5mm diameter watch (large for the time) you see today is almost exactly what you would have seen had you been in Dresden, on October 24th, 1994, when the official launch event was held. An interesting footnote to Lange’s history, and the launch of the Lange 1, is that, according to the comprehensive guide to the Lange 1 at Langepedia, the reason that all Lange big date displays in all of Lange’s watches are set to the 25th, from the beginning down to the present day, is because that was the date on which the world press would have run the story. (In 1994 the Internet was still in its infancy, although that was the year of the first International World Wide Web conference at CERN, the Internet’s birthplace – and print was still where just about everyone got their news).
