Catalogue Essay

Since its launch, the Lange 1 has served as a blank canvas for various complications, appealing to a diverse audience. While the moon phases complication has always been poetic, the Little Lange 1 Moon Phase elevates this concept to new heights. Designed primarily for the ladies' market, it features a refined case size of 36.8mm, which wears elegantly on the wrist.
What truly sets this model apart is its stunning dial, resembling a dark blue night sky. The watch is fitted with a solid silver dial coated with a thin layer of aventurine glass filled with microscopic copper oxide crystals. This unique coating creates mesmerizing visual depth and a subtle shimmer. Continuing the celestial theme, the hour markers are crafted as tiny white gold stars, while the moon phase disc features an applied white gold moon, adding an extra touch of glamour.
Enhancing its allure, the bezel is adorned with 56 brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling 1.2 carats, providing an additional dazzling touch. Presented in hardly worn condition, this watch is rarely seen on the market and comes complete with all its accessories.

German | 1845

Originally founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in Glashütte, Dresden, Germany, the firm established an entire watchmaking culture and industry in Glashütte. The brand quickly became Germany's finest watchmaker, first creating dependable, easy-to-repair watches before going on to produce some of the world's finest complicated pocket watches, including Grande Sonnerie watches, tourbillon watches and Grande Complications.


On the final day of World War II, their factories were destroyed by Russian bombers, and in 1948 the brand was confiscated by the Soviet Union. Following the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990, Ferdinand's great grandson Walter Lange re-established the brand with the objective to once again produce top-quality luxury watches. Now part of the Richemont Group, its original vintage and modern creations are highly coveted by collectors. Key models from the modern era include the Lange 1, Pour Le Mérite Tourbillon and the Zeitwerk.
