A. Lange & Söhne stands as one of the most revered watchmakers in the world, celebrated for its dedication to crafting elegant and highly complicated timepieces. Since its re-establishment in 1994 with a debut collection of four wristwatches, the brand has consistently set the standard for excellence in haute horlogerie.

First introduced in 1995, the 1815 collection embodies the tradition, heritage, and precision synonymous with A. Lange & Söhne. With its clean, classic lines and focus on functionality through precision engineering, the collection has become a cornerstone of the brand. In 1999, A. Lange & Söhne unveiled the 1815 Emil Lange Moon Phase to commemorate the 150th birthday of Emil Lange, son of the brand’s founder, Ferdinand Adolphe Lange. Produced in a limited run of 250 pieces in pink gold and just 150 pieces in platinum, this model quickly became a collector’s favorite.

The 1815 Emil Lange Moon Phase masterfully blends traditional Saxon watchmaking with contemporary design. Its dial is a visual delight, featuring an offset small seconds register at 4 o’clock, a moonphase display at 8 o’clock, and a depiction of the “Big Dipper” constellation. Measuring 35.9mm in diameter and a slim 8mm in thickness, the case features elegantly thin lugs that flow seamlessly into the design, creating a harmonious and effortless aesthetic. The model’s initial release sold out rapidly, cementing its status as a classic.

The present example in platinum is exceptionally well-preserved and offered with its original accessories. Fresh to the market, it provides collectors with a rare opportunity to acquire one of A. Lange & Söhne’s most coveted and iconic timepieces.
