Review: A. LANGE & SÖHNE GRAND LANGE 1 MOON PHASE “LUMEN”

A. LANGE & SÖHNE presented a new limited edition of 200 watches, the GRAND LANGE 1 MOON PHASE “Lumen” at the latest SIHH. It combines a brilliant moon-phase display with a mystically luminous outsize date that reflects the characteristic style of the brand icon. This is however, not the first time the brand is doing a limited edition Lumen run. It was previously used for the Grand Lange 1, without the moonphase.

Review: A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Moonphase

A. Lange & Söhne releases the Saxonia Moonphase at the recent SIHH 2016. As fervent fans of moonphase timepieces, this piece spiked our interest. Lange's specialty German engineering and age perfected finishing art are all evident in this timepiece. A notable Lange signature to the otherwise predictable moonphase layout is the large date display at 12, above the brand inscription. The famous outsize date is a style-defining facet of A. Lange & Söhne watches. It was first showcased in 1994, together with the SAXONIA model.

SIHH 2015: The Jaeger-LeCoultre Duomètre Sphérotourbillon Moon

The moon phase is a beautiful reminder of an age before time was ruled by gears, crystals and atoms. Yet the moon phase also reminds that though our timekeepers may achieve aesthetic perfection, they will always struggle to keep pace with the imperfect universe we inhabit. The challenge posed by the moon arises from the […]

Montblanc Star Twin Moonphase – Once In A Blue Moon

In many cases, watches that have the moonphase complication suffer from exactly the same problem as many chronographs: their dial layout is almost identical with one another. Not that this is so much a problem. This layout is often very practical and pleasing to the eye, but this does not diminish our craving for something […]
