A. Lange & Söhne updates its Zeitwerk Date with a striking new reference: a pink gold case paired with a grey dial. This release continues the brand’s tradition of precision engineering and timeless design, bringing its signature digital time display and mechanical jumping numerals into a refined new palette. Its updated aesthetic brings a fresh sense of balance to one of the brand’s most technically ambitious models.
The Zeitwerk Date’s hallmark features remain intact—caliber L043.8 movement, constant-force escapement, and patented ring date function—offering high horological complexity in a visually minimalist presentation. The subdued warmth of the gold case paired with the cool slate dial elevates the model’s elegance without sacrificing readability or performance. A transparent caseback reveals the intricate workings inside, reinforcing the Zeitwerk Date’s position as both a technical feat and a collector’s piece.
