Frank Wolf has unique insights into the hand craftsmanship that goes into producing a Lange timepiece after 28 years in the business”.

Frank Wolf achieved the enviable status as Master watchmaker in 1990. Today he oversees all of the assembly divisions, from the pre-assembly and individual movement components to the complete final assembly, including all of the regulations done to the movement - one of his specialties. Although he is in charge of 75 watchmakers in Glashütte, he often represents the company at international events where he can share his passion with both members of the trade and watch connoisseurs.
