Catalogue Essay

In 1996, Walter Lange released the 1815 collection in honor of his great-grandfather’s birth in 1815. The first new Lange line since the original 1994 quadriptic of watches, its design was distinguished by large cases, railway-track minute scales, and Arabic numerals – details reminiscent of Lange’s high-grade historic pocket watches.

In 2015, the launch of the 1815 Chronograph Boutique Edition demands your attention with its color. Highlighted with blue accents, a colour that had never been utilized for the collection brought back the desirable pulsometer.

At the heart of this exceptional timepiece beats the manually wound caliber L951.5, a movement renowned for its technical sophistication and exquisite finishing. Visible through the sapphire caseback, the movement showcases Lange’s signature craftsmanship, including a column wheel, flyback function, and a hand-engraved balance cock. The Glashütte ribbing, polished chamfers, and thermally blued screws further underscore the brand’s dedication to horological artistry.

Within the warmth of a white gold case and stunning blue accents, the model is well-proportioned at 39.5mm diameter. Adding to its allure, the present boutique exclusive timepiece is offered by the original owner and accompanied with its original paperwork and presentation box.

German | 1845

Originally founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in Glashütte, Dresden, Germany, the firm established an entire watchmaking culture and industry in Glashütte. The brand quickly became Germany's finest watchmaker, first creating dependable, easy-to-repair watches before going on to produce some of the world's finest complicated pocket watches, including Grande Sonnerie watches, tourbillon watches and Grande Complications.


On the final day of World War II, their factories were destroyed by Russian bombers, and in 1948 the brand was confiscated by the Soviet Union. Following the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990, Ferdinand's great grandson Walter Lange re-established the brand with the objective to once again produce top-quality luxury watches. Now part of the Richemont Group, its original vintage and modern creations are highly coveted by collectors. Key models from the modern era include the Lange 1, Pour Le Mérite Tourbillon and the Zeitwerk.
