The steel Lange 1 represents the most desireable and rare watch made from A. Lange & Söhne. The company never released the exact number of steel cases made, but, according to our research, there are less than 30 pieces. Only few examples surfaced on the market with huge results and a lot of interest from all over the world. The present watch, sold in Milan in 1997, comes from the family of the first owner and it has never been on the market or at auction.
