Kudos to the Germans in that case! :-)
I believe Lange has set such high standards that all the other German companies have more or less followed suit. Lucky us!
A Lange showdown :-)

Both these watches although different in form and function have two things in common - superbly finished movements and elegance personified. I know the Little Lange is aimed at the female market but I cannot help but admire the beautiful guilloched dial a...
Thank you Blourenco!

I could never make any purchase without my heart being involved!! I always advise my friends never to buy a watch if they like it, buy it only if they love it! I agree that the more elaborate dial of the Lange 1 makes it a joy to ogle at especially in its...
My precise thoughts! :-)

Thank you Alkiro. Would you happen to know if it works on a single or double barrel? I ask because I once owned a 1815 up and down which worked on a single barrel to power the 72 hours power reserve and I had to wind the watch in excess of 150 turns which...

decided to make an ultra thin watch, the power reserve should be one of its lowest priorities in my opinion. As long as the power reserve exceeds say 36 hours that would be fine as the beauty of the watch is in its thinness and in the case of the Lange, t...
as a matter of curiousity

do you feel that German mechanism are more pleasurable to wind that Swiss mechanisms? Just curious. The best winding mechanism I have experienced has been the Gruebel Forsey Signature One. I wish a photo had been taken of my smile while I wound that watch...
I think

the argente dial on the little Lange 1 appears more white no thanks to that white strap! Should one replace it with the standard burgundy/brown strap, the dial would look less white and more silverish. I have to confess that I am arguably an exceedingly s...
I would wait

to see what Lange does at the SIHH in January. But if they do not bring out a similar watch for men, I think you should seriously consider changing the strap on the little Lange 1 and make it yours. I might join you
It is quite intriguing

I noticed that one of Lange's most prominent ADs in the UK classifies the little Lange 1 as a gentlemen's watch on their website. I also understand that this watch comes with a black satin strap. Lange should just instruct all their ADs to classify this w...
My pleasure.

And yes - I personally wind all my watches every day. I enjoy the experience. Also, are you interested in the white or rose gold? I’d recommend the rose gold as it feels and looks more interesting. Here’s a pic of mine on blue Lange straps: ...
Definitelty in rose gold!
By: sham1 : November 28th, 2017-19:52
Lange is one of the few brands that have nailed their rose gold colour perfectly. I would however, keep the standard burgundy/brown strap as to me it brings out the best of the rose gold. Ah, you wind your watch daily - that explains why I had to wind my ...

I just returned from my Lange AD and can confirm that it takes 50 turns to fully wind the Lange Saxonia thin. So I am likely to get one but as I shall be at the SIHH next month, I want to make sure that there are no lovelier Lange watches on offer Thanks ...
