| The ANNIVERSARY LANGEMATIK is an extraordinary masterpiece with an exquisitely designed enamel dial. At the same time, it is a Lange signpost that points against the ubiquitous principle of rationalisation to which so many traditional crafts and time-consuming techniques have fallen victim. |

It takes craftsmanship honed over several centuries and about 30 meticulous steps for an emailleur to create a flawless and authentic enamel dial. Lange's dedication to historic authenticity also embraces seemingly minute details such as the separately imprinted and separately stoved red numeral XII. | Blued steel hands with polished "eyes", the classic small seconds hand with the | ZERO RESET feature, and the "chemin-de-fer" style chapter ring round out the face of a timekeeping instrument that builds a credible bridge to the very origins of watchmaking. |

In keeping with its classic style, the ANNIVERSARY LANGEMATIK stands out with a precious platinum case. The | sapphire-crystal caseback reveals the self-winding Lange L921.7 SAX-0-MAT movement with its bidirectionally winding | three-quarter rotor made of 21-carat gold and platinum. The ANNIVERSARY LANGEMATIK was crafted as a limited edition of 500 watches in the period from 2000 to 2004. |
