A. Lange & Söhne

Lange is currently showing the Homage to FA Lange set in the Asia Pacific, with Singapore being the most recent stop. The Homage set comprisese the Tourbograph, Lange 1 Tourbillon and 1815 Moon Phase cased in honey gold and is dedicated to Lange's founder...  

Most of the 2010 collection was on show, but the highlight was of course the Homage set. More photos of the watches in the reprint of my SIHH report below. Clockwise from left: Zeitwerk Luminous, Saxonia Annual Calendar in rose and white gold, and Saxonia...  

I really don't like the guilloche on the dial and the decoration on the movement. To me, these 3 watches.....hmmmm.....I really dunno what to say except 'are they necessary?' The honey gold looks great though. I must really see these watch in person , it ... 

I think it adds a lot to the dial, especially on the 1815 mondphase. The Tourbograph is nice but not for me. Cheers, -- Richard.

I just don't think the guilloche look "Lange" and it reminds me of the new Patek Perpetual. It just look like an afterthought in design but then it is very subjective. To me the old 1815 MP just hit the chord perfectly, so was the Tuetonic looking Turbogr... 

but I love the look of the new 1815 mondphase. The Tourbograph isn't for me, I would be happy with a Richard Lange PLM PT instead. Cheers, -- Richard.

I will 100% get the Daymatic this year or the next...in RG or YG..it combines the deep engraving on the rotor which I adore on the Langematic with the clean cut indexes of the Lange 1. I always had a major problem with minute flaws on the Langematic's ind... 

And I conclude with proper photos of the 2010 collection. This is my SIHH 2010 report on Lange. Many thanks to the team at Lange as well as Sincere for the excellent press conference. - SJX Lange had a superb range of products this year. In contrast to pr...  

Thank you SJX for attending this event and taking these great photographs for me to drool at. It is certainly reminding me of my favorite A. Lange & Soehne timepieces. This is certainly an important event, considering all the important watches are present... 

..mouth watering report, thanks for the write up. Im afraid as much as I like all of those pieces I have eyes for only one piece ... Tourbograph Pour le Mérite..... It is simple stunning.. I am in love, alas very limited numbers & not enough pennies=... 

Thanks SJX, Superb coverage and wonderful watches. So many of those images, particularly the movements, are now saved as wallpaper. I love the 1815 moonphase and the honey gold. Lange are really pushing through the touch of Teutonic coldness I felt in som... 

cheers PAt

Love the 1815 mondphase. Best, -- Richard.

Impressive, thanks for sharing SJX. and the Zeitwerk again get my vote thanks Eddy

1815 moonphase ?

The guilloche dial goes well with the blue of the moon phase. - SJX

the box housing the Homage set looks mighty nice. Wonder if that will be the presentation case for actual Homage set owners if there are any out there? I recall when the TimeZone was released before, they seem to have had a similar box to house all three ... 

I believe he will get separate boxes for each watch. - SJX

I'm in love with the 1815 moonphase and the Zeitwerk Luminous... Fr.Xavier
