By the way: What do you think? Do you like the new Royal Oak?
To honour Walter Lange, who passed away in January 2017, Saxon manufacturer A.Lange & Söhne will bring three gold versions of the A. Lange & Söhne ‘1815 Homage to Walter Lange’ to the markets.
145 watches in white gold, 90 in pink gold and 27 in yellow gold.
And there is one in steel! The 1815 ‘Homage to Walter Lange’ with a black enamel dial and a steel case will be produced only once. This makes it as unique as the man whose name it bears.
The 1815 ‘Homage to Walter Lange’ steel version with a black enamel dial will be auctioned off for a charitable purpose in 2018. Walter Lange, always noted for his philanthropy, would have approved.
If you ever wanted to own a unique A. Lange & Söhne, this is the watch you should look after…
An ‘1815’ with jumping seconds likely corresponds to what Walter Lange would have deemed the perfect watch. It is totally reduced to the essence while impressing the enthusiast with a puristic yet technically exciting complication.

Good news from Geneva! The Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie continues to grow, while the number of exhibitors at Baselworld has been dramatically declining. The central aisles of the SIHH in Geneva are extended for the arrival of Hermès, while a bigger Carré des Horlogers makes room for DeWitt, Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud and Romain Gauthier.
Since 2005 a one of a kind project called “Only Watch” underlines how watch-brands from luxury groups or independent craftsmen have achieved to unite in the pursuit of a common goal:
Financing research into Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
In six editions Only Watch has raised more than 25 million Euros (!) for Association Monégasque contre les Myopathies (Monaco Association against Duchenne muscular dystrophy) helping make significant advances in research over a decade.
