My pleasure. The one time such a stunning watch is released in the entry-level model, don't deny ourselves the pleasure 😉

New A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Thin Blue Copper dial

By: Alkiro1 : January 16th, 2018-11:51

Hi all, I’ve had the chance to try the new ALS Saxonia Thin in 39mm today with its lovely “Blue Copper” dial. When I saw the first SIHH 2018 ALS novelties and pictures, my attention immediately focused on this new Saxonia and its “starry sky” dial because...

New A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Thin Blue Copper dial

This dial is for real Langeholic 😍😍😍

I’m happy to see Lange offering such a timepiece because that really adds something more in their collection in my opinion. Still technically impressive and perfectly finished of course but with “more soul” for me

We share nearly always the same feelings on new watches😉 [nt]

I think so yes 😉 We’re “watch connected” 😊

I realy like the watch and the dail 👌🏻😘

A side by side shot of these both timepieces would be really interesting to make a comparison. At first sight, I think the Saxonia dial is more discreet

Your right my friend . The reason i didnt buy that CvdK yet is because its a bit in your face . I like it a lot but my wife (aka Boss ) keeps telling me not to do it .

I’m sure she will. But, be careful, she could love it too for... herself 😉

😁👍🏻 [nt]

He he 😁

Thanks for sharing a live close up

This 39mm case was perfect for my wrist. Absolutely no problem. I would add that its “dark” dial, the size perception is reduced too

Great. Thanks for the feedback! [nt]

My pleasure 🙏

As an owner of an unisex model myself (Blue Ellipse) and

I could wear it with a great pleasure trust me 😉

And I could drink the Piña Coladas with great pleasure.

😁

The ALS Chronometre Bleu?

Very interesting parallel. Thank you as I didn’t think about it before.

Agreed

I hope you’ll try it soon to give me (us) your personal feeling

Your photo quality is very good because...

ROFL 😂😂😂

The dial looks really special.

It is and you can see very nice details with a magnifying glass. I sincerely hope you’ll have the opportunity to see one soon as it’s a really nice Lange for me

My top favourite in SIHH this year so far

My pleasure 🙏 Unfortunately not. But if you check Foversta's Lange report I'm quite sure you'll find a shot of its mouvement

Here is one

Thanks foversta [nt]

Thank you FX

For sure one of my favourites!

Happy for you to have had the opportunity to try it during your Lange dinner 😉

These blue aventurine / goldstone dials have always worked for me.

For me, it’s like wearing a small part of the universe on your wrist

Shouldn't those dials say "MeCaquartz"? [nt]

Cheeky monkey 😉

Thank you for the real life shot of this beauty!

My pleasure. The one time such a stunning watch is released in the entry-level model, don't deny ourselves the pleasure 😉

Definitely, these more unique dials are rarely used on entry level pieces, good for ALS! [nt]

God for ALS and good for us too 😉

I wish it was entry-level

You’re right. It’s not exactly an entry-level Lange as we would like but with such a dial it’s very competitive in my opinion

I agree

I hope you’ll love it. It’s a watch which really needs to be tried to fully discover its beautiful dial

My only concern is the size

I think it will look smaller on your wrist but a real test is mandatory of course

Absolutely [nt]

Keep us informed 😉

Ha ha

He he 😋😉

The only comparable piece I can think of is the Tonda from Parmigiani

I didn’t think about the Parmigiani (thank you for the reminder) but you have several other possibilities such as a Jaquet Droz, the Omega Speedmaster Moon Phase Aventurine, the Christiaan Van Der Klaauw Planetarium (new model)...

The aventurine really works well with simple dials, hopefully my local AD will carry the new ALS soon.

You have a wide choice today but, as you said, this kind of dial works very well with “simple” watches. And this new ALS is perfect here

This looks good !! [nt]

Absolutely!

lovely watch with amazing dial!

You’re right Henry. Strangely, this Saxonia brings a little bit of “fun” in the today’s Lange collection but, at the same time, it’s formal because dressy. Lovely paradox maybe

Yeah, from my experience with the blue aventurine dial Omegas...

I think ALS has to bring something different, maybe less “cold” to their clients. A little touch of madness (well mastered of course) or poetry could be interesting IMHO like they did with the Emil Lange for instance

Gorgeous dial

Humm, I talked a little bit with Lange sales persons and I think you’ll only have one version in 39mm of this Saxonia Thin as the other versions are already available in 37mm and 40mm

Yes I know but

Yes 😊 Who knows? Maybe they will release a smaller version in the coming years if there’s enough demand for such a size

At 37mm with the shimmering blue dial

In my opinion, this 39mm is already a two genders watch. The woman I met told me that it was for both men and women. That’s why a 37mm version has a weak probability to exist one day in my opinion

Unfortunately Alkiro

I’m afraid of that yes 😕

My favorite Lange from SIHH

Really cool to have your feedback about this Lange. You summarised it well. I have the same feeling about it. A stunner

Thanks for the photos rehreh!

No problem!

Thanks!
