Price :> $ 20,000
Available : Discontinued. Sincere Watch Gallery does distribute some of the newer model of A Lange & Sohne.

Here is the one of the latest L&S Saxonia model. I cant wait to see them in the time piece gallery here in Sincere Fine Watches in StarHill Gallery (if they carried them at all)

This featured White Gold model 315.026 has been discontinued and it has been replaced by the newer model like below L & S DatoGraph Up & Down.

The new Datograph has an incremental change, rather than anything drastic. Fundamentally the calibre remains the same.''The most evident changes are:

1. The case diameter is now 41 mm while the original was 39 mm.

2. Power reserve is 60 hours compared to 36 hours, thanks to a larger mainspring.

3. All the Roman numerals on the dials have been replaced with baton indices.

4. The new L951.6 calibre uses the in-house Lange balance wheel and hairspring first used for the Double Split.

History of A Lange & Sohne (from Wikipedia)

A. Lange & S''hne is a trademark of German watchmaking company Lange Uhren GmbH (“Lange”), a subsidiary of Richemont SA. Lange pocket and wrist watches are among the finest in the world, competing with watches produced by Swiss firms such as Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin.
History

Lange was founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in the town of Glash''tte, near Dresden, in the eastern state of Saxony. Under Ferdinand, and then, following his death, his sons Emil and Richard, Lange produced quality pocket watches, the company’s very best products generally being given the “1A” designation. Under subsequent generations of the Lange family the company continued to produce pocket watches and, like many German watch makers, produced special over-sized wrist watches for use by German airmen in World War II.

In 1948, the post-war Soviet administration expropriated the company’s property, and the Lange brand ceased to exist. However, in 1990, following the collapse of the East German government, the founder’s great-grandson, Walter Lange, together with watch industry executive G''nter Bl''mlein, restored the company with the assistance of several Swiss watch manufacturers, including IWC and Jaeger Le Coultre. The refounded Lange, again operating from Glash''tte, presented its first range of wrist watches in 1994. Today, A. Lange & S''hne (litt. A. Lange & Sons) wrist watches are sold globally and Lange, like IWC, is a member of the Richemont group.

You cannot get this White Gold Classic Saxonia from the A.D Malaysia. But try the internet.

Overall, I feel this watch is for those certain ppl with feeling and personality who appreciate the finest things in life.
