grand lange 1luminous

Well, men don't really have too much going as far as jeweler is concerned, especially in comparison to their women counterparts. So they can splurge a little bit more in chronographs. And looks like one new option is already knocking at your door step! The classy Lange 1 by A. Lange & Sohne's is revered by many as one of the finest watched to come out of the German manufacturer's watchmaking legacy! Drifting away from the ordinary, the Lange 1 has retained its typical off-centre displays through the dial. It has a caliber of the Lange in-house L021.1 with 67 jewels.

SIHH 2010: A. Lange & Sohne 1 DaymaticThe gorgeous Lange 1 series of watches will soon be expanded with even more beautiful Lange 1 Daymatic model.Available in pink or yellow gold or even in platinum, the Lange 1 Daymatic literally mirrors the dial layout of the original Lange 1 model.Its signature off-center hour / minute and small seconds subdials are moved from 9 and 5 o’clock to 3 and 7 o’clock respectively. The minimalist power reserve indicator is replaced with similarly styled retrograde day-of-week display, which is located at 9 o’clock.Since the original Calibre L901.0 in-house hand-wound movement is replaced with a completely new L021.1 automatic caliber, which –at 31.6 mm in diameter and 6.1 mm in height– is 1.2 mm larger and 0.2 mm higher, the Lange 1 Daymatic’s case has also grown in size by 1 mm and 0.4 mm to 39.5 and 10.4 millimeters in diameter and height respectively.However, the watch doesn’t look any more massive, preserving the clean and elegant look of its progenitor.We still do not have photos of the watch’s caseback, but the German watch manufacturer says that the Daymatic’s self-winding movement is, as usual, exquisitely decorated, including a hand-engraved balance cock.The Lange 1 Daymatic is certainly going to be one of the best offerings in the upcoming year.
