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 and limitation number on case back. I agree,

of a very nice watch. I like the color scheme of the watch very much, not to speak about the movement. The counter could be used as a ölräknare 😉

but my trusty Sub

but with Moritz Grossmann Cornerstone and Lang & Heyne Georg there are very nice rectangular watches available from Saxony.

I like the monochrome appearance with the little red accents.

On 7th December 1845 the compagnie F. A. Lange & Cie. was founded in Glashütte. So maybe we have to wait a few months to see a 175th anniversary piece.

but there are other nice references, such as 570, 2508 or 1578 with it´s spider lugs, worth to look for. I was smitten by the reference 2526: the first automatic movement from PP, considered by many as one of the most beautiful and finished automatic movements to date. It is said to be produced only

I had watches from Lange & Söhne and a few Rolex sports watches at this time. I was looking for a classic vintage watch for formal use, it should be a Patek Philippe. I did some research about the Ref. 2526. When I found this 2526 with double signed dial a had to have it.

Strap is from ABP. It is not such a bright blue in real life, but the dark blue complements the yellow gold case and eggshell white dial well - in my eyes.
