From the tender age of seven, the Swatch brand has captivated me and been link an inspiration for my desire to collect watches, said Marks. "Phillips Perpetual is delighted now to showcase link to a new generation of watch enthusiasts the forward-thinking link and innovative designs of Swatch under the leadership of the brilliant Nicolas George Hayek, in a unique selling exhibition in London."

Interestingly, the watch's papers mention ref. 101.027X, the "secret reference" L1 with a white gold case and silver dial (secret because Lange never publicized it), and not the typical link steel Lange 1 ref. 101.026. The entire package is an interesting piece of Lange history, but in the end, a steel Lange link 1 is a steel Lange 1, which is to link say an extremely rare watch—most estimates put production at about 30 pieces.
