In October 2014, Germany celebrates 25 years of being a reunited country.
In the same month, A. Lange & Söhne celebrates 20 years since the truly iconic Lange 1 was introduced.
The two events are inextricably tied together; they are historically and emotionally connected.
This film, set to premier on October 25 at an A. Lange & Söhne celebratory event in Dresden honoring the double anniversary, needs little in the way of introduction. Hit the play button, put it on full screen, turn up the volume and allow yourself to be transported to a place where “time came home.”
Note that the lion’s share of this footage has never been seen before. Quill & Pad has the immense honor of presenting it to you in avant-premier.
