The Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este has been celebrating the automobile as a design icon and work of art since 1929. A. Lange & Söhne is supporting the exclusive competition for historic vehicles and concept cars for the second time in 2013. This year, the owner of the winning automobile will again receive a unique A. Lange & Söhne timepiece.

From 24 to 27 May 2013, the park surrounding the luxurious Villa d'Este hotel on Lake Como will attract individuals who have an affinity not only for elegant automobiles but also for exquisite mechanical timepieces. For A. Lange & Söhne, a competition sponsor since 2012, the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este has created interesting synergies and stands out as a fitting complement to the venerable brand's commitments in the domain of culture. Accordingly, Lange CEO Wilhelm Schmid looks forward to the event with enthusiasm. "In the world of classic automobiles, we have found many new friends for our watches. Following the highly successful première last year, we are eager to share our passion for technology, style, and elegance with our guests again in 2013."
