- A. Lange & Söhne’s Lange 1 collection is the epitome of a modern classic. First introduced in 1994, it has maintained its contemporary edge while evolving into a symbol of sophisticated design and technical mastery. The dial, renowned for its clarity and balance, features the now-iconic oversized date apertures—a patented design inspired by the Five-Minute Clock of Dresden’s Semper Opera House. The off-center hour display further cemented the Lange 1’s status as a visionary creation, setting it apart from anything else in the world of haute horology. Over the years, the Lange 1 has grown from a “simple” time-and-date watch into a versatile collection, offering complications such as moon phases and perpetual calendars, as well as variations in size, from the 36mm Little Lange 1 to the commanding 41mm Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase.

- The Grand Lange 1 made its debut in 2003 with a bold 41.9mm case, but in 2012, Lange refined the design, reducing the diameter to a more elegant 41mm. The Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase, like the present watch, followed in 2014, powered by the updated in-house caliber L095.3, and introduced a beautifully integrated moon phase display at 12 o’clock within the signature offset time display.

- A. Lange & Söhne is celebrated for its unparalleled craftsmanship and precision, and this platinum Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase is a testament to those values. Preserved in excellent condition and accompanied by its original accessories, this exquisite timepiece offers collectors a rare opportunity to own a masterpiece of modern watchmaking.
