Quick TakeImagine a watch that doesn't just tell time, but tells a story of horological mastery. The A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Tourbograph Perpetual Honeygold is a symphony of complications, a harmonious blend of artistry and engineering. Its honey gold case glows with warmth, a treasure chest housing a fusée-and-chain transmission, a tourbillon, a rattrapante chronograph, and a perpetual calendar.

This isn't just a watch, it's a legacy, a testament to the enduring spirit of A. Lange & Söhne.

DescriptionThe A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Tourbograph Perpetual Honeygold "Homage to F.A. Lange" (Ref. 706.050FE) is a horological marvel that pushes the boundaries of mechanical watchmaking. This limited edition timepiece, restricted to a mere 50 pieces, is a testament to the brand's unwavering commitment to precision and craftsmanship.

Encased in 18-carat honey gold, a proprietary alloy known for its exceptional hardness and unique hue, the watch exudes an air of understated elegance. The 43mm case, while substantial, sits comfortably on the wrist thanks to its ergonomic design. A sapphire crystal case back offers a captivating glimpse into the intricate workings of the manually wound L133.1 movement. This mechanical masterpiece is a symphony of complications, headlined by the fusée-and-chain transmission, a centuries-old mechanism that ensures constant force delivery to the escapement for optimal accuracy. A one-minute tourbillon further enhances precision by counteracting the effects of gravity on the regulating organ. The rattrapante chronograph, a split-seconds chronograph, allows for the timing of intermediate events, while the perpetual calendar automatically adjusts for the varying lengths of months and even leap years.

The black-rhodiumed dial, also crafted from honey gold, provides a striking contrast to the raised numerals and scales, ensuring optimal legibility. The moon-phase display, with its meticulously engraved stars and two hand-engraved moons, adds a touch of celestial elegance to this horological masterpiece. The watch is secured to the wrist with a hand-stitched brown alligator leather strap, fitted with a honey gold buckle that echoes the case material. With a water resistance of 3 bar (approximately 30 meters), the watch is suitable for everyday wear, albeit with care taken to avoid prolonged exposure to water.
