A. Lange & Söhne L901.0
Identity
A caliber is three separate things and this reference keeps them apart: the construction, the names it is sold under, and the article a brand actually bought. A watch model points at an execution — never at a bare construction — which is why “same caliber” is almost never a complete answer.
No designation is recorded for this design yet.
No source in this corpus states which grade any A. Lange & Söhne L901.0 was bought at. That unknown is stored as a real row rather than left blank, so it can be counted, filtered and excluded from any comparison that would otherwise assume parity.

- A. Lange & Söhne L121.1successor of
Replaced the L901.0 in the Lange 1 from 2015; same 38.5 mm case, same dial layout, same 72 h from twin barrels. What changed: balance position, plate architecture, gear train, oscillator and date switching.

Every brand here is on the strength of a source that names a watch and states this movement. Brands that use this caliber and nobody has sourced yet are absent — this is what has been researched, not what exists.
