A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Grande Date 105.027 18k WG Blue Dial
First released in 1994 as Lange & Söhne's prototypical dress watch, the Saxonia has had an undeniable air of elegance, sophistication, and stunning design baked into its aesthetic since it first made its way onto the wrists of watch collectors. Since then, the collection has evolved to include some of the most stunning dress watches around, much like the ref. 105.027 that we have here. Offered between the short period of just 1997 and 2002, the ref. 105.027 comes crafted from 18k white gold and features a stunning symmetrical dark blue dial with Lange & Söhne's signature outsize date complication and a small seconds subdial to boot, making it a truly refined design of utter elegance and decorum. Sporting an exhibition caseback, the Saxonia ref. 105.027 proudly displays its immaculately finished manual-wind movement – perhaps one of Lange's most esteemed features. Considered to be one of the ultimate dress watches, it doesn't take too long to figure out why collectors hold Lange & Söhne to such high regard - their watches are simply incredible.
THE DIAL With its dark blue dial, the Saxonia's white gold hands and large outsize date are perfectly legible as they pop against the dark backdrop and remain easy to read at a glance.
THE MOVEMENT Powering the Saxonia is Lange's cal. L941.3 movement. With its immaculate 3/4 German silver baseplate, hand-engraved balance cock and incredible blend of finishing techniques, it is no surprise watch collectors love the Glashutte giants as much as they do.
