A. Lange & Söhne has once again captivated the horological world at Watches and Wonders 2025, presenting three exceptional timepieces that blend technical mastery with breathtaking design. The German brand reaffirms its position among the elite with the Minute Repeater Perpetual, the latest 1815, and the Odysseus Honeygold—each a testament to precision and artistry.
The Minute Repeater Perpetual: A Symphony of Sound and Mechanics
A. Lange & Söhne challenges industry giants like Patek Philippe with its new Minute Repeater Perpetual, a fusion of a minute repeater complication and a perpetual calendar. Crafted in 950 platinum and limited to just 50 pieces, this watch features a newly developed manual-winding movement.
The watch’s acoustics are a standout, with hand-tuned gongs producing a crisp, resonant chime. Beneath the platinum exterior, meticulously harmonized components ensure unparalleled clarity. The bold dial showcases an intricate layout, including subdials, apertures, and two solid gold moons, emphasizing its sophistication.
The 1815: A Tribute to Tradition in Modern Form
Paying homage to founder Ferdinand Adolph Lange, the 1815 series returns with a refined 34mm diameter case and a slender 6.4mm profile. Available in white or pink gold—each limited to 750 units—the watch exudes understated elegance, inspired by early pocket watches.
Powered by the in-house L152.1 caliber (the brand’s 75th since its revival), the 1815 balances minimalist aesthetics with technical prowess. A sapphire crystal caseback reveals the finely finished movement, inviting admiration of its craftsmanship.
The Odysseus Honeygold: Strength Meets Elegance
Named after the legendary Greek hero, the Odysseus Honeygold is built for resilience without sacrificing refinement. For the first time, the model features a 750 honey-gold bracelet, complementing its lightweight yet robust case.
The watch’s spacious dial, framed by a narrow bezel, offers excellent legibility. Polished surfaces and intricate detailing catch the eye, while the exhibition caseback showcases the twice-assembled, hand-finished movement. Limited to 100 pieces, each bears a unique engraving, making it a collector’s dream.
A Legacy of Excellence
With these releases, A. Lange & Söhne continues to push boundaries in haute horlogerie. From the chime of the Minute Repeater to the timeless 1815 and the adventurous Odysseus, each watch reflects the brand’s unwavering commitment to innovation and heritage.
