I always trust A Lange and Sohne watches for the very best in quality and style, so when I was looking for a new moonphase watch, I knew it had to be an A Lange.
That’s when I saw the Lange 1 Moonphase, a beautiful timepiece in pristine platinum with glass made out of sapphire crystal. The strap is likewise luxurious, made out of a comfortable black snakeskin with hand-stitched details.
The Lange 1 Moonphase is also available in rose and yellow gold models, but I think the platinum goes best with the piece’s interstellar implications.
This watch also features the Lange 1 collection’s trademark asymmetry, featuring an off-center main dial and smaller supplementary dial—in this case, the moonphase display.
Speaking of the moonphase, A Lange & Sohne Watches offer an impressively precise lunar display. Unlike most moonphase timepieces, which become inaccurate after as little as 30 days, the Lange 1 Moonphase is meticulously manufactured with four gear ratios to be 99.998 percent exact. It would take the watch 1,226 years to be off by even a single day.
