summary
What did you think.
Although there weren't many new models announced, they were all elaborate models that are typical of A. Lange & Söhne. I feel that the lineup made it clear that the brand respects tradition and places importance on its philosophy.
If you have any other ideas, I'd be happy if you could let me know!
see you!
