replica watches contain mechanical rather than quartz movements and, with the exception of a very few special edition A LANGE & SOHNE, Lange cases are made of gold or platinum. Lange movements are developed, produced, and assembled by replica A LANGE & SOHNE watches itself. Lange's movement design and decoration is distinctively Glashütte in appearance, eschewing typically Swiss features, such as multiple bridges and cocks, or Geneva wave decoration, in favor of three-quarter plates, "Glashütte stripes", hand-engraved balance cocks and screwed gold chatons. A LANGE & SOHNE watches movements are made from a metal known as "German silver", an alloy of copper and nickel, as opposed to the plated brass typically used for Swiss movements, giving A Lange & Sohne movements an unusual color and sheen.
