The more I see this watch, the more I love it!
Great review as always and no cons which is very rare! It may not be cheap but I think this gem of a watch strikes the right balance between a beautiful dial, a superbly finished movement and a reasonable price for a split second chronograph. The fact that it is a limited edition and in honey gold are an added bonus.
Hands on review of the Lange & Söhne 1815 Rattrapante Honeygold
After last week's presentation of the 1815 Thin Honeygold, I would like to introduce you to the 1815 Rattrapante Honeygold, which is also one of the three watches celebrating the 175th anniversary of the opening of Ferdinand Adolf Lange's first workshop i...
I didn't see this one coming. Excellent offer! In terms of proportions, beauty, elegance, classicism, it is a very good one! And Lange missed a " simple " Split Second, it is now done. Bravo.
Just one point I regret: The lack of choice between honey gold and another version in white metal ( gold or platinum ). Best, Nicolas

Great review and super photos as usual!
There are two things that I think are not up to Lange standards: 1) Sparse finishing on the bridges (no ribbing). 2) Incomplete and notchy hand engraving (see photo). John ...
The only 'con' (and this is being wishful) is...
...make it a 60-minute chrono. On the subject of big dates...turn the Saxonia Annual Calendar (with big date) into a perpetual and I will buy it tomorrow : ) I might buy it anyway...
I agree
the nicest langes in the past 5 yrs at least (with the exception of the Dato perpetual touby) - but i am biased towards chronos with 12-6 arrangement 2 nitpicking points : - 39-40mm would be perfection - the unsightly spring in the movement Ym
I wonder why..
I wonder if you know why they decided to use the spring.. rarely seen in high end split seconds chrono.. any idea?
Great review and photos 👍
Comparison shot I took last year at the London Boutique. ...
Fantastic 175th Anniversary pieces
Thank you FX for your review. I like the 175th anniversary watches very much, much better than the watch presented 5 years ago, where I wrote here: "And now the 1815 "200th Anniversary F.A. Lange"? A big watch with its 40 mm case, and "only" a black dial ...
Love it.
I want to see the honey gold in person. It looks so great in photos. Thanks for the thoughtful review.
