But because the 19th-century world was not as globalised as it is now, the demand for such timepieces was relatively modest.zones at the International Meridian Conference in Washington, crossing from one zone into another was a potential source of confusion. To solve the problem, Lange’s watchmakers soon began to craft pocket watches with two separately settable time indications.
