Late response, but
This is one really beautiful dress watch. I remembered handling it at a boutique; its almost perfect to me as Lange's "entry" level dress watch. I think I prefer it over the 1815 for its sheer simplicity and neatness. However I wished they kept this dial aesthetic for 37mm; 35 seems a little too tiny even for my small wrists..
The small case size however makes the iconic movement proportionally pleasing with respect to the case size. Thus it is a tiny gem indeed.

A month on the wrist: 35mm Saxonia in WG
A watch made me pause and rethink this crazy hobby of ours It did so without complication or flare, but with three hands, twelve applied indexes, a silver dial, a three-piece case, and a technically simple but perfectly executed movement. It is the 35mm A...
Winding efficiency
Thank you for the post, could you comment on how quickly the watch winds in terms of crown revolutions?
Back to the fundamentals, Pete. you cannot get rid of a watch with such virtues.
Simple yet elegant, I would add timeless. That's the Lange I love. Thanks for this nice artcle, Pete. Best, Nicolas
Thank you for this great view, Pete.
Both the watch and the writing are beautiful. You conveyed your feeling in a gentle and peaceful way with love and emotion behind it. The ever evolving process of self reflection often leads to deeper and truer self understanding. This hobby brings us so ...

Thank you Bro!
This is one of the few NON-BRO watches that I treasure. It distracted me from pursuing BroWath #3.
Thanks bro
"I simply loved the watch, and I could care less about collectability. True, this watch doesn't house any complication, isn't technically important to the industry or brand, nor is it ultra rare; but this is the watch that I love wearing - and that's that...
Bro - your words mean a lot. Thank you!
And you're right. The wearer's passion is both sufficient and necessary for a watch to belong in his collection. If one day someone else will buy watches for me, perhaps then his opinion might have a little weight. But until then, it's just me and my watc...

I would have gone for the Saxonia too!
Much more classy looking than the 1815's printed indices and the "beheaded" 6 o'clock marker....
