What is special about German watches?
Many people only know about Swiss watches and know very little about watches manufactured in other countries. High-end watch brands like Panerai from Italy and Glashütte from Germany are particularly notable, with Germans putting a tremendous amount of care into watchmaking. So do you want to know what makes German watches so special? Follow Xiaoya below to find out.
The exquisite craftsmanship of German watches
Whether dealing with complex designs or classic three-hand watches, A. Lange & Söhne attaches great importance to every single process with ingenious craftsmanship and strives to push every procedure and step to perfection. This spirit is not only demonstrated in projects large and small throughout the manufacture, but also forms a core element of A. Lange & Söhne's corporate culture.
From the entry-level Saxonia to the Grand Complication, the Saxon master watchmakers uphold consistent standards in quality, precision and personal artistry. Each Lange watch is equipped with an in-house movement and a precious 18K gold or platinum 950 case. Whether it is the traditional fine finishing of individual components or the demanding double-assembly process, all movements are handled with meticulous care.
Taking A. Lange & Söhne as an example, let us look at the manufacturing process of German watches.
1, Unique Design
Apart from timeless aesthetics, unique brand elements also contribute greatly to making A. Lange & Söhne watches stand out. This is evident in both the product design and movement production. Even without the striking arched brand logo, the identity of the SAXONIA remains instantly recognisable. This is thanks to the subtle integration of understated details, such as gently curved lugs, slender leaf-shaped hands and engraved printing.
2, Clarity and Legibility
The SAXONIA watch collection adopted a brand-new dial design in 2015, giving the overall look a more distinctive and legible appearance. The slightly elongated 18K gold hour markers are positioned closer to the edge of the dial, with the 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock positions marked by double baton applique indices. Lange also adheres to its design principles by matching the tones of the case, dial and alligator leather strap with the inherent aesthetics. For instance, the SAXONIA is available with a 18K pink gold or white 18K gold case, paired with a silver-white dial and a reddish-brown or black strap.
3, Comprehensive Inspection
Before qualifying for regular production, each new model must undergo a series of necessary pressure tests in the manufactory's laboratories. In the climate chamber, the watch must withstand a succession of alternating dry-cold and humid-hot environments to ensure it can resist weather conditions worldwide.
4, Hidden Aesthetics
A. Lange & Söhne watches bring together many defining elements of fine watchmaking, which have often been abandoned elsewhere for cost-effectiveness. However, the pursuit of perfection remains consistent at Lange, and the finishing of each movement component is meticulously crafted, without neglecting even the hidden parts, which are adorned with perlage, Geneva stripes, straight graining or sunray patterns, while component edges are chamfered and polished.
5, Double Assembly
Double assembly is an integral part of Lange's quality system. To ensure that the movement functions with absolute reliability and is visually flawless, the movement is completely dismantled immediately after its first assembly. Afterwards, all parts are placed in an ultrasonic cleaner to be cleaned. Some components are finished shortly before the second assembly process begins. The fixing screws used in the initial round of assembly are replaced at this stage with brand-new blued steel screws.
6, Hallmark of Quality
The 3/4 bridge made of untreated German silver is one of Lange's signature features. Before the final assembly process takes place, the bridge is decorated with traditional Glashütte ribbing. The bridge of the SAXONIA secures gold chatons with 4 ruby bearing jewels. The master watchmakers hand-polish them before the second assembly stage and then fit the chatons into the bridge using heat-blued steel screws.
7, Eve of Completion
Setting the dial and hands is the penultimate step in the entire manufacturing process. Subsequently, the completed L941.1 manual-winding movement is sealed and fitted into a 18K pink gold or 18K white gold case. Future wearers will be able to admire the exceptional details of the refined movement through the sapphire crystal case back.
8, Quality Control
Following comprehensive testing and inspection, the SAXONIA is ready to be unveiled. This is the manufacturing process of German watches. The craftsmanship is extremely intricate yet exceptionally refined. German watchmaking has a long history, and the meticulous attitude towards watch production gives German watches their consistent characteristic: an extraordinary combination of precise timekeeping and exquisite craftsmanship. This is why German watches have always been deeply loved by the public.
