A. Lange & Söhne

Hi Folks,

Put up a post not long ago a piece which i own after much trouble tracking it down.As Peter mentioned in his post these pieces are made in pairs and limited.

Giving the nature of limited therefore its should be very much sough after.Original 1815 chronograph's dial look some how too empty and plain,well some argue it as purer and no disturbance.Personally,i love the center engraving of fine craftmanship  made by the engravers in Lange.

The center engraving of these pieces have no doubt brought it to another level of enjoyment.Chronograph is practically for timing time and the engraving part has made the watch alive in the forms of art.

Gentleman,please enjoy.....

 

Both side by side shot.....

Rose gold piece......

Wrist shot......

Lange 1815 chrono engraving have touched deep inside my heart in my pursuit of fine watches.The center engraving gave an additional tranquility to this already fine,wellknown,gentleman's chrono watch.

Hope you all enjoy it.Thanks.

Congratulations for your 2 chronos and thanks for the nice pictures. Is it possible to order other watches from Lange with engravings?
I think engravings give them a touch of nobility.
Enjoy them in health.

I haven't seen pictures of these specific 1815 since they were released. Thanks a lot, it's  a beautiful duo even if, at the end, I prefer the classic dial of the 1815 chronograph.

Recently we spoke about some of us who bought pieces in double.

Here's a very nice example!

I love your passion, it is so refreshing!

Useless to say: Enjoy!

Best, my friend.

G'day,

thanks for sharing and congratulations on such a nice pair!!

And they are in fact so special; the massive silver dials are hand engraved with Guilloche patterns by the same engravers who are in charge for Lange´s famous hand-engraved balance cocks. Now there are not many artisans capable to work on such dials, naturally limiting supply. Therefore the chrono´s represent a very very small number of pieces made and it´s truly a rare sight to see two of them together. Actually the number is that low Lange didn´t even assign a special model code or reference!

The manual labour is visible on close view; no two patterns are the same. And while the dials appear to be quite similar, they are not. Just like Lange´s movement parts, where no two units are identical and even allow to unravel the engraver in charge.
Here´s a close view we´ve seen earlier:

An aspect of the "1815 Chronograph Guilloche" to be particularly noted is these to be likewise understated. While close-up pictures may make believe the Guilloche work to stand out prominently, it´s in fact a watch to fit both casual and formal dress codes (notwithstanding the size, of course). It´s not an overly obvious difference towards regular production models and the very fine engraving really sets it apart, without changing the understated appearance of the 1815 Chronograph.

In fact, a gentleman´s choice!

Cheers,
Peter

... i was going to ask you if you had a picture where we could see more the detail of the center and how the name interact with it. Excellent picture! Sublime watch! Really discovering more and more Lange. Everytime i say to myself "that's the one", somebody comes up with something new that is even more extraordinary.
Thanks for the post, enjoy them, and wear them in good health!

Truly exquisite!

Wear them always in the best of health!

and congrats! They are works of art. How in the world did you manage to get those babies?

congrats on these BHK9. Great shots of great pieces. Seeing them pieces made in pairs reunited again evokes such a good feeling Congrats again...

This is a beautiful pair, especially with the engraved dial! The 1815 has always been my favorite Lange chrono due to its size and comfort, together with the exquisite Dato movement.You are so lucky to have acquired such rarity.

cheers
