Grand Lange 1 ’25th Anniversary’ Is Wider And Thinner, Don’t Make A Difference
GRANDLANGE1 is slightly larger than the classic LANGE1 by 2.5 mm. If you don’t watch them side by side, it will be difficult to notice that the watch has a larger dial than the original. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of LANGE1, Lange has launched 25 limited edition GRANDLANGE1 with 18K white gold case with blue details.
GRANDLANGE 125th Anniversary Edition
GRANDLANGE1 is special in that it is hard to perceive details. On the asymmetrical dial, the time, large calendar, and power reserve indications are scaled up and carefully arranged so that they do not overlap each other. At first glance, what seems insignificant is actually far-reaching: Since the hand mandrel must move slightly to the outside, the watch factory needs to develop a special movement.

L095.1 manual winding movement highlights the striking dial structure and is meticulous. The movement has a diameter of 34.1 millimeters and is arranged more closely as it has only one barrel. Compared to LANGE1, the case of this watch is thinner, but the power reserve is still maintained for 72 hours.
This special model features a silver-white inlaid dial with blued-steel hands and blue lettering. In addition, the watch uses a blue alligator leather strap with an 18K white gold buckle for an elegant look.
Through the sapphire crystal case back, you can view the movement composed of 397 fully hand-finished parts. There are 42 jewel bearings, 7 of which are fixed in the gold sleeve with blue steel screws. The oscillation system is equipped with a classic screw balance and Lange balance spring, which hangs under the hand-carved balance splint. The characteristic design of the ’25thAnniversary’ series is hidden in the blue pattern, and the number ’25’ surrounded by the outer frame echoes the Lange large calendar display.
