What Makes the Zeitwerk Unique
The Zeitwerk line stands apart with its groundbreaking jumping numerals mechanism and highly legible digital display, a rarity among mechanical watches. Powered by the in-house caliber L043.1 and its successors, the Zeitwerk balances complexity with clarity. Whether you're drawn to the understated elegance of the original Zeitwerk or the technical mastery of the Zeitwerk Date or Decimal Strike, each reference exemplifies A. Lange & Söhne's commitment to innovation without compromise. Collectors appreciate the architecture of the movement, visible through a sapphire caseback, and the finishing techniques that set Saxon watchmaking in a class of its own.

Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk watch we sell is authenticated and comes with detailed condition reports, expert guidance, and white-glove customer service.
New Zeitwerk models typically retail between $90,000 and $150,000, depending on the complication and case material. Pre-owned models at The 1916 Company are priced based on condition and market demand. Our current pre-owned Zeitwerk selection is priced between $50,000 and upwards of $250,000.
No — despite its digital display, the Zeitwerk is entirely mechanical. It features a jumping hour and minute display powered by a mainspring and mechanical movement, not electronics.
Limited editions like the Zeitwerk Lumen or Zeitwerk Decimal Strike tend to be the most collectible, especially when in excellent condition with original box and papers.
Zeitwerk models are known for exceptional accuracy thanks to their constant-force escapement, which ensures consistent energy delivery to the movement.
While most Lange watches feature traditional analog displays, the Zeitwerk introduces a modern digital format in a mechanical framework — a unique achievement in fine watchmaking.
