The Onion Crown King
Gerd-Rüdiger Lang achieved significant recognition by making the iconic "oversized onion crown" a characteristic of his watch designs. This distinctive element garnered him the endearing nickname the "Onion Crown King." Inspired by this story, Romaric André creatively conceived a "crowned onion" as a playful and captivating depiction of Gerd-Rüdiger Lang's onion crown legacy.
