The Datograph Perpetual Tourbillon is a luxury wristwatch by A. Lange & Söhne.
This watch adds three major complications to the functionality of the Datograph: a flyback chronograph with precisely jumping minute counter, a perpetual calendar with moon phase display, and a tourbillon with patented stop-second.
The watch was first introduced 2016 with a platinum case and black dial; 2019 followed with a version in a white gold case with a red gold dial. In April 2024, Lange presented the “Lumen” version with a Lange-exclusive Honeygold case at Watches & Wonders.
Lange counts this watch as part of the Saxonia family.
