A. Lange and Sohne are masters of creating pure beauty in their timepieces, and creative design that is breathtaking. Certainly the love of diamonds is clear in this Saxonia Mother-of-Pearl and diamond watch, but it is done so with such elegance and grace, everyone is captivated by how perfect this design is. The 18k white-gold case is featuring the same brushed ribbon on the band that we love, and at 37mm just sits on the wrist like a queen on a throne. The small row of diamonds that lines the bezel provides exquisite chic coupled with the mother-of-pearl dial that is simply flawless. To understand the difficulty of this dial one has to think about finding a uniformly iridescent piece of mother-of-pearl that is also completely flat. If that isn’t difficult enough, then it must be cut into a perfect circle without cracking it, and add another cut of the smaller round subsidiary dial, and then place them together. The complete timepiece is soft and elegant, encased with a automatic movement. So you have from the master of timepieces this spectacular timepiece, diamond-set automatic winding wristwatch for women, with a caliber L086.4 that is very impressive.
Horological brilliance begins with taking chances and doing things that other watch manufacturers have not done. Technical advancement is a critical step and one that A. Lange Sohne has mastered. The double chronograph triple split watch is one example of that mastery. While the name might be a bit confusing to those not familiar with the terminology, the timepiece is a double chronograph because it was built with two 12-hour chronograph mechanisms within one movement. While previous timepieces bearing that same name existed, they were in actuality split-second chronographs that contained one full function complication and a corollary one.
