A testament to history and durability of German watchmaking, the present stainless steel A. Lange & Söhne military wristwatch bears the reference 127-560A-1 and measures 55mm in diameter. The vintage pilot's wristwatch furthermore conceals a highly capable manually wound calibre, featuring a hacking-seconds function to maximise the time-setting precision. The highly legible radium dial bears the typical 5 minute increment indexes with hour indication to the centre, allowing pilots to accurately time their military operations.
