I've decided (with a heavy heart!) to sell my Lange 1815 Up/Down 234.032. I purchased this watch in 2019, and am the second owner. I've worn it probably less than 30 times, and it's in perfect condition with no visible scuffs of blemishes. It comes with box and papers, and was originally purchased in 2018 from a Lange AD.

I am based in NJ, and would strongly prefer a face to face deal in the NY/NJ area. If I do ship, it's buyers expense via USPS Registered, to CONUS only. I'll accept bank wire only. I have many references going back 10 years, and would expect the same.

I'm asking $20k for this piece, which is significantly less than retail and also significantly less than professional dealers are asking for. I offer this price as I'd like a quick deal, and while I'm open to offers, they must be realistic.

Lange was founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in the town of Glashütte, near Dresden, in the state of Saxony. Under Ferdinand, and then, following his death, his sons Emil and Richard, Lange produced quality pocket watches, the company's very best products generally being given the "1A" designation. Under subsequent generations of the Lange family, the company continued to produce pocket watches and, like many German watch makers, produced oversized wrist watches for use by German airmen in World War II.

In 1948, the post-war Soviet administration expropriated the company's property, and the Lange brand ceased to exist. However, in December 1990, following German reunification, the founder's great-grandson Walter Lange, together with watch industry executive Günter Blümlein, restored the company with the assistance of several Swiss watch manufacturers, including IWC and Jaeger-LeCoultre. The refounded Lange, again operating from Glashütte, presented its first range of wrist watches in 1994. Today, A. Lange & Söhne (litt. A. Lange & Sons) wrist watches are sold globally and Lange, like IWC, is a member of the Richemont group.
