Beautiful pictures
Thank you for the beautiful pictures and commentary, Francois Xavier. I concur with your feelings toward the original 1815. While I've owned many models of Langes, I only own one today, a platinum Emil Lange. I also agree with your observations regarding the new 1815 Moonphase to the point that I've put a deposit down on one

An old entry level at Lange: the gold versions of the first 1815
Entry level at Lange doesn't mean a quality decrease. Lange is maybe one of the most homogeneous brands of the industry: you will find the same care of details in a Saxonia or in a Tourbograph. One of the most famous entry levels from Lange was the gold v...

As hopefully...........very soon and courtesy of a very well respected member of this forum. Will be purchasing my very first Lange & Sohne which just happens to be a member of the 1815 range. Lovely photos.............I can feel myself getting excite...
old 1815
Fr.Xavier, thanks for this review of the old 1815 - I think this kind of entry level ALS is truly missed these days ;-) Just one little correction: the old 1815 was already discontinued in 2006 to keep space for the re-introduction of the new Saxonia - so...
The 1815 was still present in the 2006/2007 catalogue.
It was removed in the 2007/2008 catalogue. So it was stopped in 2007. Fr.Xavier This message has been edited by foversta on 2010-03-02 13:04:07
Base pieces are fine with me FX
It's often very nice just having the basic elements Great report! -- Richard.
Thanks for bringing it up again ...
and to me it is much more than an entry level watch. FX you wrote "an old entry level" - somehow provocative, isn´t it? What else does someone need in a watch? Simple watches like this have been our parents/grandparents treasures in the past. Well, n...
Being the first or the latest version, the 1815
Is a very interesting offer from Lange, for all who are in search of a Dressy and very well made watch. I agree with that. I love very much the new 1815, and I even think I prefer it to the former version, while I finally prefer the previous version of th...
Thanks for sharing FX...
and have to agree the new one is a mighty fine descendant. Deserving too! Thanks for reminding us of how good ALS is, all throughout
Regarding.....
your comment about "entry level".... by coincidence I asked a fellow purist and friend the same question over the weekend.... he said that Lange uses the same finishing in all its watches and thus differs from others.... it is difficult to compete will La...
Thank you for the history!
I didn't know there was an old 1815 white gold with a blue dial. I really love the new 1815 Honey Gold Moonphase.
I am now the very proud owner.................
Of a very beautiful Platinum 1815 up & down. Thanks to Ken from this very forum.
Congrats ! We can't wait to see the pics !
In the meantime, here is a pic of my platinum 1815: Fr.Xavier...
36mm is an OK size for dress watch
I have one exactly llike yours. You mentioned that the case size in todays standard is on the small side, but I still find the 36mm diameter perfectly acceptable for a dress watch, many others brands like PP and VC are still producing current models in th...
