The 1815 Moonphase 'Hommage to F.A. Lange' was introduced in 2010 to celebrate the company’s 165th anniversary and as a tribute to its founder, Ferdinand Adolph Lange. Three different commemorative wristwatch models were created for this significant occasion, all cased in 18k honey gold - an alloy reserved exclusively for special series timepieces.
The present timepiece was produced in 265 examples, alongside the Tourbograph Pour le Mérite and the Lange 1 Tourbillon. Not only is this exquisite 1815 Moonphase encased in honey gold, but it is also technically sophisticated. Its moon phases complication features an exceptionally precise gear train that, assuming the watch remains wound, requires no correction for 1'000 years.
Honey Gold
In 2010, Lange specially developed its own unique colour of gold, warm and lustrous, it is reminiscent of the colour of honey and was therefore named ‘honey gold’. The secret alloy includes silicon which is physically harder and paler than standard 18k gold. Inspired by the colour of the gold cases of Lange & Söhne’s early pocket watches, ‘honey gold’ is only ever used for special limited edition timepieces such as the present watch and is therefore highly prized by collectors.
