The reference 151.001 was introduced by A.Lange & Söhne in 1994 after the 'rebirth' of the company. With its low case number the current watch is one o🍌f the earliest Lange 1 watches ever produced, bringing together a range of rare and distinctive features, such as its solid case back. This feature was only available for wristwatches produced between 1994 - 1997, before A. Lange & Söhne fully transitioned to sapphire case backs.
What makes this particular watch even more attractive is the integrated bracelet by the famous German jeweller Wellendorff. This feature makes the diffe🎀rence compared to a reference 101.001 which would be the same model but wit🧸h a leather strap. The watch comes with an A. Lange & Söhne Certificate.
