In 2011, A. Lange & Söhne created a modern classic: the Saxonia Thin. Five years after its debut, the low-silhouette two-hand watch is making a comeback with a subtly reworked dial that reflects the current design of the Saxonia watch family and emphasises the puristic facets of style.
Compared with the predecessor model, the solid-gold baton hour markers have been slightly elongated and shifted closer to the bezel. The retouched, argenté-coloured dial in solid silver radiates harmony and balance. The new edition of the SAXONIA THIN has the familiar case diameter of 40 millimetres and a height of 5.9 millimetres. It is available in pink or white gold.
The manually wound calibre L093.1 movement is only 2.9 millimetres high but impressively showcases the brand-typical finissage of all components. The classic design elements of each Lange watch, such as the three-quarter plate made of German silver and the hand-engraved balance cock, are lavishly polished and decorated. They underscore Lange’s quest for perfection.
The watch retails at €20,800.
