Lange Datograph?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A datograph is a chronograph with flyback function and a big date complication.  It is far more complex than an ordinary calendar.  It has inspiration from the 1800&#8217;s and combines the two words of Date and Chronograph to make Datograph.  This design has the two chronograph apertures at the 4 and 8 o&#8217;clock positions.  This is unique since most chronos feature the dials at the 3 and 9 o&#8217;clock positions.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>This elegant <em><strong>A. Lange &amp; S\u00f6hne <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alange-soehne.com\/en\/stories\/flyback-mechanism\" rel=\"noopener\">Datograph<\/a> Flyback timepiece<\/strong><\/em> comes from the Masterpiece Collection.\u00a0 It is a stunning timepiece packed with features.\u00a0 However, the look is one of absolute elegance.\u00a0 The black dial with pink gold case is complimented beautifully by the alligator band.\u00a0 Even without looking at the features, the balance and stunning qualities make this an exquisite dress watch for anyone.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>One of the key features that collectors look for is the Panda style dial.\u00a0 Panda dials have 2 or 3 round dials that are either black on white or white on black.\u00a0 In this case the A. Lange &amp; S\u00f6hne Datograph Flyback has 2 silvery white dials which could look like Panda eyes peering out at you as you look at the black dial watch face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The reason the &#8220;Panda&#8221; is so popular is because it offers both balance with tremendous readability.\u00a0 If the dials were only one color, it would be hard to distinguish between the various functions of the mini circular dials.\u00a0 This timepiece has so much going on &#8211; so many features &#8211; that the panda coloring really helps lay out in an orderly way the features on the timepiece.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3493\" src=\"http:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4.jpg\" alt=\"A.-Lange-Sohne-brown alligator straps\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4-64x43.jpg 64w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/A.-Lange-Sohne-Datograph-Up-Down-Pink-Gold-2015-4-624x416.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A. Lange &amp; S\u00f6hne is often added to the list of top 5 watchmakers in the world.\u00a0 Like Panerai, it has a rich history of watchmaking tradition, but had a significant hiatus between the &#8220;early era&#8221; and &#8220;modern era&#8221; when they did not make timepieces.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The company started with Ferdinand Adolph Lange back in the early 1800&#8217;s.\u00a0 Ferdinand was mentored by some of the greatest watchmakers in his time and created a school in Glash\u00fctte Germany where the home of great German watchmaking began.\u00a0 After his death A. Lange &amp; S\u00f6hne continued to flourish under his sons Richard Lange and Emil Lange.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, the great watchmaker came to an end in World War II when their factory in Germany was bombed and destroyed.\u00a0 The Soviet bloc took control of the Eastern section of Germany where the company had flourished for nearly 100 years at that point.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When the Berlin Wall fell, this gave the opportunity for Ferdinand Lange&#8217;s great grandson Walter Lange and G\u00fcnter Bl\u00fcmlein to reimagine the company and in 1989 they relaunched this time-honored watchmaker.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" class=\"wp-image-22473\" src=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap-600x314.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap-64x33.jpg 64w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lange-sohne-datograph-leather-strap.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>A.
