Owner review: A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Chronograph

The A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Chronograph release demonstrated to the world that the wheel could be re-invented! We were given a refined form of the revered Datograph. When was the last time something beautiful paused your footsteps in admiration? This morning was one of these pleasant moments. Bathed in the morning sun, the A.…

Owner Review: A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1 MoonPhase

The A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1 MoonPhase is such a distinctive watch that marks A Lange & Sohne’s (“ALS”) revival in the 1990s with its unique decentralised and asymmetrical dial design, and of course, the outsize date display. A piece I’ve always wanted to add to my collection, and I’ve very pleased to share…

Owner Review: A. Lange & Sohne Saxonia 219.028

This was an unplanned purchase. The A. Lange & Sohne Saxonia is not the kind of watch that one should buy on a whim. Sure, we have all spent a couple of hundred dollars on an ill-advised eBay find we didn’t need in the middle of the night, but this was a whole other level…

Owner Review: A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1

I fell in love with the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1 sometime in 2001, when I first discovered the brand via images in a hotel magazine. Many Lange catalogues later, the Lange 1’s gorgeous, distinctive, asymmetrical dial seeped into my subconscious. I knew I had to have it. Two years ago, I was fortunate…

Owner Review: A. Lange and Söhne 1815

The A. Lange and Sohne 1815, along with some of Lange’s other early models, can be found pre-owned around the $10k budget, making them an absolute steal for the quality. Sporting the L.941.1 movement, the watch ticks away at 21,600 bph. It has a 45 hr power reserve, is handwound and has 21 jewels. The…
