When I look at the Rattrapante Honeygold, I can feel a real tension between the world of F.A. Lange's conservative Saxon traditions and the highly complicated, maximalist watchmaking that has proliferated during A. Lange & Söhne's contemporary revival.
When I examine the fit and finish of the caliber L101.2, or when a glance at the time reveals a glint of the gilt dial, or when I feel the luster of the Honeygold case pressed against my skin, I can see how 175 years of German watchmaking history have led to this watch.
For F.A. Lange and his descendants, A. Lange & Söhne watches are a monument to their personal history; a captive witness to their life's work. So when A. Lange & Söhne calls this watch an homage to its founder, there's a reason for it. It's a celebration of time passed; a contemporary cenotaph for the wrist.
