KING ALBERT OF SAXONY
born on 23.4.1828 in Dresden, died on 19.6.1902 in Warschau

As a son of King Johann, Albert receives the best education and formation to give consideration to his later role as prince. As a general in the army, he takes part at the most important acts of war of the 19th century and proves his grand military skills.

After his accession to the throne in 1873, Albert, now as a monarch, plays a big role in encouraging the economical and social development in Saxony and supports art and culture as a patron in an exceptional way. In the 30 years of his reign, Saxony develops to an economically and culturally powerful state.

With his open-minded and human character and his sense for the important, the diligent and analytically thinking King leads Saxony into a blossoming period of technology, trade, industry and commerce.


The simple but noble roman dial of our "Albert" emanates a modest statement. The indication of time in its whole accuracy is not disturbed by additional dials and the monopusher integrated in the crown permits the perpetuation of the classical appearance of the watch case.

Looking through the bottom glass, you can observe the breathtaking play of the levers and springs of the column wheel chronograph in all its aesthetics. Highest technical claims again meet LANG & HEYNE´s joy of completed shaping and the fine manual finish of the watch pieces.
