The Lange 1 Zeitzone is a charismatic example of both German engineering and aesthetic. Using the design traits typical of the Manufacturers such as the eccentric dials and large date apertures, the watch displays two time zones with their own day and night indications. The second time zone in the smaller dial can be set separately by activating the pusher at 7 o'clock while the date can be adjusted by the one at 10 o'clock or by changing the time of the main dial.
