Hi All,

The Lange event was hosted by the Lange Middle East team themed as Lange Master watch making classes or usually termed as Akademy. This was in early 2013 and i had been longing to post this eventful memorable eve for a long time. We had fellow collectors from Lebanon, Saudi & UAE. Fantastic selection of venue on the beach at the Meydan Beach club and the usual fantastic Lange hospitality.. Had the honour of meeting the watch maker and craftsman who made the dial of my Zeitwerk HWK.

Enjoy the pics and i hope we have one more event like that soon

P.S Apologize for the unprofessional shot my HWK autographed watchmaker's coat..

Key Points from the Discussion

A. Lange & Söhne Akademy events provide a valuable opportunity for collectors to gain a deeper understanding of high-end watchmaking and the intricate craftsmanship involved.
Meeting the specific watchmaker or craftsman responsible for a component of one's own watch, such as the dial maker for a Zeitwerk HWK, creates a unique and memorable personal connection to the timepiece.
These events foster a sense of community among collectors, allowing them to share their passion and experiences.
