When the quiet kings of Saxon horology wanted to ensure their Grand Lange 1 was a little “grander”, they didn’t simply beef up the case and put in a heftier movement. Instead, a new calibre was developed that enables the four displays – time, small seconds, power reserve and trademark big date – to be opened out for a crisper, clearer look. The date was enlarged proportionally and is now the most imposing and legible on any Lange wristwatch.
Watch of the collection
If the standard Grand Lange 1 is big, then the tourbillon, perpetual calendar version is big and very, very clever. Keep it running and you won’t need to adjust the date until the year 2100. The price of such convenience? £234,200.
