A. Lange & Söhne shocked their clientele and industry spectators with the introduction of their first sports watch, the Odysseus, in 2019. First offered in stainless steel with integrated bracelet, an unprecedented material for the manufacture, it was followed a year later with the present white gold model fitted with a sporty rubber strap. Beautifully finished, as would any timepiece leaving Lange’s workshop, a stellate embossing is applied to its minute chapter and subdial, creating a textured dial that plays coyly with light. Tastefully executed both inside and out, the sapphire case back invites its wearer to appreciate the hand-polished cal. L155.1, which is as technically sound as it is aesthetically pleasing. Offered with “no reserve”, this is an exciting opportunity to obtain an unobtainable (at retail) wristwatch. It remains complete with original accessories, including an individually numbered polishing cloth.
