WTS: A Lange & Sohne Saxonia Outsize Date 381.029

[x2046]

Description
This is the A Lange & Sohne Saxonia Outsize Date reference 381.029. Founded by Adolf Lange in the German watchmaking town of Glashutte, Lange has a storied history. Post World War II, the company was actually nationalized, leading to their company’s disappearance from the late 1940s till 1989. Post the communists’ abandonment of a single party rule in Eastern Europe, Walter Lange managed to return to his origins in Germany and re-established the company. Lange is often thought of as a watchmaking powerhouse, with workmanship, finishing and quality rivalling the best of the Swiss counterparts like Patek Philippe.

The Saxonia line was originally introduced by A Lange & Sohne in 1994 as the foundation of their dress watches. These early Saxonias were smaller in size in comparison to their modern counterparts at 34mm but carried a strong essence of the Lange DNA with the date window at the 12 and a pusher at the 2. The movement used in 1997 was the L941.3 with the signature 3/4 plate and is still utilised by current production Saxonias.

This particular reference, the 381.029, was introduced in 2018. Released in a white gold and pink gold variant, this model ushered in the period of the big date window at the 12. With a 38.5mm case and running on the Calibre L086.1, the Outsize Date is still in production today and is highly popular due to the modern case size and the distinctive date display while still carrying the DNA of the original Saxonia.
