Lange & Sohne 25th Anniversary: The Tenth piece has been unveiled and it is... The Lange One Tourbillon 25th Anniversary.
White Gold 38, 5 mm big, 9, 8 mm high case. With all the finishings we saw on the 9 other " 25th Anniversary " pieces: Silver dial, blue indices, date and hands, blue engravings....
Limited to 25 pieces.
Now, the whole 25 anniversary collection has been unveiled.
I was expecting at least one killer piece, with a white enamel dial , and something a bit more daring and / or special.
What about you?
Best,
Nicolas

Hoping vs. Expecting
Throughout the year I have shared your sentiments, I was 'hoping' for something daring and special, while expecting it would be tame and consistent such as this. I will admit I am happy to see the fully exposed tourbillon cutout used in a Wg case where it...
Nice of ALS to put a second big-date display on the balance cock
Or whatever that rear bridge is ... it could be an industry first ... (wink) 😉
Nothing special for me out of all anniversary bunch...
I would be happy with a salmon dialed Grande Lange 1.
Well A. Lange is for an acquired taste. ;))
Jokes aside, it's hard to pleasure everyone.
There was a last killer...
... all ten anniversary pieces in a box for a price of 833,600 EUR. ...
You're right but a few pieces are extraordinary.
Datograph Tourbillon Perpetual, Zeitwerk, Turbograph – at least I think these are extraordinary!
I meant out of those 10 amazing anniversary
not one extraordinary . Personally I feel Lange 1 Darth is even sexier than those 10. Totally agree with your choice.
Dude, you confused me with your question...
..thought it was obvious when I wrote "Lumen".
It's fine; not great, but fine...
I have the same complaints as with the original L1 tourbillon: 1) get rid of the miniscule seconds subdial. It really clutters up the dial, it's silly small, and we already have the tourbillon ticking away. 2) get the "tourbillon" text off the dial. Yes, ...
Am I the only one finding these Anniversary pieces boring
I know I’m being harsh here, but come on...the last one should have been fireworks no ? Instead a re-edition, again, of a old model. And if you ask me, the Honey Gold was sooo much nicer. What’s going on in Glashütte ? ...
My take
I think their decision to release so many limited anniversary pieces highlights just how versatile and successful the original Lange 1 design is. To release such an original design by a "new" company and to have so many successful variations is truly amaz...
Is this using a new movement?
from the pics, the movement looks similar to the older Lange 1 tourby.. I Guess then the date doesn’t jump instantly at midnite
