Anyone complaining about winding an AL&S has wayyyy too much money and not enough appreciation for the brand. Love the video and hearing you speak in German 🇩🇪
He prefers frequency of new releases. He respects A Lange and sohne a lot though and how well made they are. They just do what they do really well, they are not oriented to bringing new models to market which some prefer. It’s more a matter of personal preference for his tier lists. He also likes budget watches (and watches with a very well-known resale value) which makes sense for his audiences.
Awesome video Jenni love this watch, so clean and beautiful. Great to here you speak so passionately about a watch from your homeland and speak some German too ☺️
Years ago I owned an 1815 up/down in white gold. What an amazing reference from a top-tier Manufacturer. I sold it because it just didn’t fit my lifestyle and wasn’t getting enough wrist time for the price. I regret selling it every day! Thanks for reviewing it here.
You’re not the only one. I’ve lost count of the number of watches I regret selling, particularly when I look at the figures they go for now compared to what I sold them for twenty-odd years ago!
I own a Saxonia Automatic in rose gold and I only wear it on formal events or special occasions. When it comes to scratches, 18k gold makes stainless steel seem like it’s as hard as a diamond…
I rarely comment on Podcasts but I have watched a bunch of yours and it was heart wrenching to hear you express yourself in your native tongue! Agreed on the fact that if you are going drop big coin on a watch A. Lange $ Sohne is the brand to do it on. Keep up the great work!
Yay Jenni!!! Thank you for another excellent video! So lovely to hear you speaking in your native German. I quite enjoy listening to you, even more so when you switch to German even though I have to read your subtitles.🙂 Your perspectives are refreshing and welcomed very much. I appreciate Lange also. Indeed, their casebacks and movements are beautiful to behold just as their faces are. Love and respect to you from the midwest USA. Cheers!♥️🙂
Well her English is damn near indecipherable, so yeah she should stick to her native tongue. My god even Arnold Schwarzenegger in his early days was easier to understand.
@@NoName-bb2pu Seems like you need to improve your comprehension skills then, and increase your exposure to more accents than your own. Her English is good and coherent.

@@tsuihintree ah now the mystery is solved, I usually understand German accent easily, but I've a terrible time deciphering the gibberish that Scottish and Irish people spew. To me English in it's purest form is British accent, 2nd closest is American.
It's a pleasure to hand wind a watch, not an inconvenience! My first vintage watch I bought a year ago is on my wrist almost everyday because I like winding and setting the time when it stops!
Beautiful watch. And lovely review. Whilst I picked the Saxonia Thin over the Saxonia with the sub-dial as the 'entry level' Lange, there is no question that ALS is a stunning brand at the pinnacle of horology.
Agreed. Owned a Lange 1, Richard Lange, and recently got the Saxonia thin with the blue starry dial. it’s crazy… the saxonia thin is extremely thin but they’ve managed to keep a ridiculously high level of finishing. The dial is a masterclass in elegance. You’d think it’d be tacky being sparkly. Nope. It’s like staring into a galaxy. IMO lange’s best dials are their minimal ones. Super clean and flawless even under a microscope.
Bravo for highlighting this Lange. I love the brand and your points are spot-on. My favorite is the Saxonia moon phase. It has the big date which to me is instantly recognizable as a Lange. These watches are pure class and thankfully not overhyped.
@@axisofadvance666Thank you! I have a number of Breitlings (Navitimer, Superocean Heritage, Top Time, Avenger), a JLC Reverso, Dornbluth & Sohn Regulator, Cartier Tank, Omega Seamaster 300, and a Rolex Air King. Nothing else as exquisite as the Lange!
I just saw this video again after seeing and commenting on it two years ago. If the 38.5 mm version is a big too big, try the 206.032 which is basically the same watch, but 36 mm. It would look great on you.
Really appreciate this video. I, too, prefer the 3/4 plate architecture of German movements over Swiss movements. Coincidentally, I was wearing my Saxonia Copper Blue while watching it.
Finally saw one of these in person. Truly good looking watch. I prefer the Up Down, but the boutique did not have one. That will probably be my retirement ‘celebration’ watch.
In Australia, every A. Lange & Sohne display cabinet is even emptier than Rolex display cabinet. I was fortunate enough to purchase an 1815 Up/Down in 2018. Back then, Lange’s were easy to obtain. I still own it and it is the star of my collection. I went to visit the Lange Boutique in Sydney a few days ago and they literally had only three Watches available for purchase.
Unless VC starts to do some serious marketing like the others it will be out of the top three. Never hear or see them, while Lange, PP, and AP are all over the place.
Great video, compeltely agree with your opinion regarding the differnce between Gemran and Swiss styles. German is effortlessly caml, simple and practical. Even when there are many compliations in a dial the feel is precise, uncramed. Speaking in German within the video was a really nice touch!
I just one of those big brands to make on stainless steel watch instead of full gold, no diamonds, no platinium and bought one at a affordable price to me... I know there is no hope for that but I can dream of it, Nice part you speaking German :)
Seit langen mal wieder eine schöne Präsentation. Was für ein Traum von einer Uhr. Da ist es leicht eine gute Figur zu machen. Ich wünsche mir mehr solche Videos. Shabbat Shalom M.
"An inconvenience"? I can't think of too many things that would be more pleasurable than winding my own 1815 (in white gold or platinum) every day. The small pleasure in life.
3:18 Manually winding my watch every other day is a source of great joy. I’ll never understand those who say that manually winding your watch(es) is frustrating.
I'm on the other side of the boat. I can appreciate the art and routine of manual winding and automatic movements even, but I'm a Quartz guy, mainly for accuracy, convenience, reliability,and cost. I have a dozen automatics but haven't been wearing them much. Casio is my main brand! Next up is GS Quartz.
Ever thought about getting a "Little Lange 1" in 36.8mm? Tried it on a few months ago and now I can't stop thinking about it. 😅 Or, in your words: Muss mal drin sein.
If I were able to afford a luxury dress watch (and had the need for one), it would be a Lange 1 Moon Phase. Second choice would be the 1815 Annual Calendar. Either one in Pink Gold with the Silver dial. Not the cheapest models, but since we're talking "dream watch"...
There's a man in my pub who wears a Lange as an heirloom but he can't pronounce the name! I will show him this video from a German speaker. Seeing the Saxoina besides the 1815, I like them both, but the 1815 would be my choice too.
Say that watch strap brand again please! It gave me a tingle (no, not in that way!!) - I just love long German words, even the boring ones like aufenthaltserlaubnis, bescheinigung and arbeitsvermittlung (for non German speakers these are all words you learn if you go to work in Germany. Wann ich war einem studenten, Ich war einem spüler in einem grosse hotel im Baden-Württemburg (Park Hotel Adler) und da ich hat etwas Deutsch gelernt! (e.g. fleischwolf!)
I do like this watch Jenni, nice and simple dial an easy to read without being in your face. Being a manual wind is also fine for me as it gives that added physical connection to the watch, transmitting our energy directly to the watch to keep its little heart beating. As for the movements, I'm not that bothered where they are made as long as they are well made and reasonably accurate but looks can be important if you have a display case back. Personally I love the look of the old 1863 movement. Its always great to hear your views on watches Jenni. Keep up the great work.
If you look closely the “Made In Germany” printing is located outside the minute track which means this is not the current and 3rd generation 38.5mm 1815 but is the older 2nd generation 40mm 1815 which is why it’s wearing a little larger. Also the case sides are polished where the current version is brushed.
@@mschumer ok - I might be wrong about the polished sides, I might be thinking about the WG models that are brushed, but look at your “Made In Germany” logo at the bottom of the dial - it’s above the minute track on the 38.5mm Mk3 and below it on the 40mm Mk2! Ms Elle clearly is reviewing an older Mk2 40mm watch.
Great video! What an outstanding watch.Definitely a grail watch that I may never be able to afford. I also think Germany watches are amazing and might really be the best out there. I own two German watches and both are quite nice...neither costs $27,000!
Oh my ghosh you are so beautiful! I'm talking about the watch of course. (My wife is watching me typing this...) hahaha! Jokes aside, I really love the brand and what it stands for. My holy grail for years is 1815 Annual Calendar ref no 238.032. It's simply so stunning!
4:57 Sächsische Uhrentechnologie Gmbh? Something about switching from English to German in the same sentence makes it difficult for me to make out, but a search for german watch case manufacturers only finds a couple possibilities and it can't be Ickler
The biggest problem is lack of yellow gold option and the oversizing. Those watches will look really good at 30-36mm in diameter. Yellow gold and small size gives ultra-orthodox look to dress watch.
Long lugs can be annoying, but they have their benefits too, makes it easier to clean out the dust if nothing else. And also, it's one of those quintessentially German watch design memes, so it'd be a shame to omit them in the premier German brand.
I rarely need an actual dress watch (with a suit) these days. I have one, an older vintage one (Longines Ultra Chron 14K not 18K) and it does the job (not that anyone would care if I just wore a nice dive watch). A gold watch these days is pretty crazy in price, especially a new one. Kind of glad I bought this decades ago. That one is really pretty but I suspect I couldn't afford it! I'll leave this to the rich guys (or girls). Good review though. Were I to really buy something like this, it would probably be an IWC.
In my opinion this watch is the epitome of fine watch making. The proportions are perfect. The calm dial is elegant and understated. I agree with you about the lugs. Thank you for the video.
Regarding elongated lugs, are you finding them a problem for your small wrist, or in general? Because with a 170mm wrist this lug to lug is far from excessive on paper.

LOVE LOVE LOVE ZTHE 1815! Forever one of my favourite Lange’s! And you captured it so beautifully Jenni! Amazing video as always.
No simping, Britt! BONK!
Please put size in inches too
Up/Down is great, but not what she reviewed. But the "regular" 1815 is also stunning.
As a fellow german i love seeing beautiful watches like this made here in Germany. Thanks for the Great Video!
I don’t care what Nico said, A. Lange & Sohne is a god tier watch. It’s definitely my holy trinity of watches.
Dude is budget archieluxury
He prefers frequency of new releases. He respects A Lange and sohne a lot though and how well made they are. They just do what they do really well, they are not oriented to bringing new models to market which some prefer. It’s more a matter of personal preference for his tier lists. He also likes budget watches (and watches with a very well-known resale value) which makes sense for his audiences.
The movement and its finishing is beyond Patek or Audemars watches of the same price point
Love the clear cut analysis Jenni. Thanks. Lange clarity and screaming simplicity just cries out quality.
Awesome video Jenni love this watch, so clean and beautiful. Great to here you speak so passionately about a watch from your homeland and speak some German too ☺️
This is a proper watch. Nothing to add. Next level watch mastery.
A beautiful review, and much appreciated the part in German. It’s so important to hear natural and gentle words in other languages.
I LOVE the addition of your opinion in German Jenni! You should make this a part of all your reviews.
Years ago I owned an 1815 up/down in white gold. What an amazing reference from a top-tier Manufacturer. I sold it because it just didn’t fit my lifestyle and wasn’t getting enough wrist time for the price. I regret selling it every day! Thanks for reviewing it here.
You’re not the only one. I’ve lost count of the number of watches I regret selling, particularly when I look at the figures they go for now compared to what I sold them for twenty-odd years ago!
I also own a white gold up/down, and the problem is that it looks too good to wear on a daily basis
I own a Saxonia Automatic in rose gold and I only wear it on formal events or special occasions.
When it comes to scratches, 18k gold makes stainless steel seem like it’s as hard as a diamond…

Lange’s quality is truly on another level. Love their designs, personally I like the Saxonia thin the most.

I think German watchmakers are underrated. Lange is my favorite. I would choose a Lange Odysseus over that of ANY Patek.
No watch that is more expensive than a combine harvester is underrated.
Good choice but even harder to get then Patek.
Underrated by whom?
Schön dich mal auf deutsch zu hören auch wenn den englisch auch toll ist aber der Eindruck über die Uhr kommt noch etwas besser rüber :)
Beautiful! Such perfect understated beauty!
Absolutely one of my favorite watches, period.
Cheapest one being £17k in the UK. Still an absolute dream watch to have. Nice to see some hands on with it
Love the German part with subtitles. I took it to mean you were passionate enough about it that saying it in German was was the only appropriate way!
Really interesting, thanks, and a good reminder that German watches are still at the forefront of technical mastery and beauty.
Oh lord, you may have sold this watch to me! Such a gorgeous piece, and I love the warmth of the German silver!

Totally agree!
There's 1815, 1815 up and down, saxonia moonphase, and saxonia thin. Went there last week. Fell in love with 1815!
“The calm dial” perfectly describes the watch, another great video Jenni. Oh, and thanks for describing your likes in Deutsch!
Hello, for me the lugs are perfect for this watch, the whole piece is just perfect !
Who the hell decides what watches are part of the holy trinity? Seriously. A Lange belongs there. Kick out the one-hit wonder AP and call it a day.
Unless VC starts to do some serious marketing like the others it will be out of the top three. Never hear or see them, while Lange, PP, and AP are all over the place.
Correction: the most reasonable Lange is the Saxonia 35mm for about €20.000.
Now this is a real wow watch !!! Beautiful !!! Hand winding this would be a pleasure !!!!!!!
Great video, compeltely agree with your opinion regarding the differnce between Gemran and Swiss styles. German is effortlessly caml, simple and practical. Even when there are many compliations in a dial the feel is precise, uncramed. Speaking in German within the video was a really nice touch!
Totally agree with lugs! I would have purchased a Nomos club, but the lugs are just too long for my wrist :'(
Lange 1 moon phase is my favourite watch
Maybe their entry level but it’s still absolutely divine and I’d love to own one someday
I agree about the long lugs. GO doesn't seem to have the same issue. I love the sweater by the way
Beautiful watch and great review. Thank you Jenni. The dial reminds me of a nice combination of vintage and contemporary.
Hey Jenni, love your German, so very elegant, thank you. All the best from Australia

Or, in your words: Muss mal drin sein.
Phenomenal content as always!

BTW: The one you showed on your wrist is 40mm, the 2nd generation („made in Germany“ underneath minute track). The current one has 38.5mm
Can you review Breguet Classic line up ? They seem under appreciated and have done a fair bit for the watch world.
Wow jenni you make the German language sound as romantic as Italian or French
The so called 'Holy Trinity' needs a kick up the back end and one of them needs to go to make room for A Lange!
Loved the segment in German!
I own this watch! 😊😊😊. So cool you did a video on it. I bought a bespoke strap for it because the alligator looks too stodgy for me.
Get a job.
Understated and beautiful!!
Isn't the sheapest A.Lange & Sohne the base Saxonia whihc is around 20k USD
Putting tattoos on your arm is like taking a permanent marker to the dial of a Patek.
My A Lange Saxonia has become one of favorites. In a safe w/ Pateks, AP's, Vacheron's, and Rolexes -- Lange is at the top
There's a man in my pub who wears a Lange as an heirloom but he can't pronounce the name! I will show him this video from a German speaker. Seeing the Saxoina besides the 1815, I like them both, but the 1815 would be my choice too.

Great video about a great brand - and topping it with your German for that segment makes it such a cooooool video. Thanks you again 👏

Love the watch. Love the brand. Love the video. Just go nuts and become a dedicated ALS/German watch channel! 🤠
Jenni. Love your videos informative and relaxing at the same time thank you.
Great video, Jenni!! That watch suits you quite well also!
Can you do a review on the Lange 1, with the date window?
That is my dream watch
I do like this watch Jenni, nice and simple dial an easy to read without being in your face.

😀Ooooh...eine deutsche Uhrenmarke...wunderbar Habe persönlich eine Nomos Club Campus 🙃 Lange & Söhne ist aber eben eine andere Preisklasse 😁

I’m confused because I have the 38.5 and the sides are polished. The A Lange website also shows the case as polished. 235.032 is the reference #.
@@mschumer ok - I might be wrong about the polished sides, I might be thinking about the WG models that are brushed, but look at your “Made In Germany” logo at the bottom of the dial - it’s above the minute track on the 38.5mm Mk3 and below it on the 40mm Mk2! Ms Elle clearly is reviewing an older Mk2 40mm watch.
Oh, you are correct. Mine’s above the minute track. Never noticed. Good eye. I was thinking the 38.5 should have fit her better.
Ab/auf model is the perfect one for a "poor man's" Lange:)
Would like to see how the full silver dial tarnishes over time. Old silver dials can be quite beautiful.
Great video! What an outstanding watch.Definitely a grail watch that I may never be able to afford. I also think Germany watches are amazing and might really be the best out there. I own two German watches and both are quite nice...neither costs $27,000!

Oh my ghosh you are so beautiful! I'm talking about the watch of course. (My wife is watching me typing this...) hahaha! Jokes aside, I really love the brand and what it stands for. My holy grail for years is 1815 Annual Calendar ref no 238.032. It's simply so stunning!

And also, it's one of those quintessentially German watch design memes, so it'd be a shame to omit them in the premier German brand.
for your wrist, take the older 1815 which measures 36mm. Also solves the problem with the lugs.

Hi Jenni, just buy the Saxonia 35mm. Perfect watch for the IBWC 👌
Great video! Is there a blemish on the minute hand? Surprising to see on a German watch, especially at the price. Maybe I'm seeing things 🙂
