Measuring just 5.9 mm in height, the Saxonia Thin is the thinnest A. Lange & Söhne

 ever. Second to none in terms of craftsmanship, A. Lange & Söhne’s are regarded as one of the best high-end watch manufacturers, they are probably better known for their more complicated watches so an extra thin movement is slightly out of the ordinary for this prestigious German brand. The Calibre L093.1 in the the Saxonia Thin was developed specially for this model and is a mere 2.9 millimeters thick, but despite its diminutive stature, it still manages to provide an impressive 72-hour power reserve.

The dial of the Saxonia Thin is nicely balanced and features nothing more than thin baton hour markers with a small dot next to them and lancet hands. At 40mm, it’s contemporary sized and combined with an understated discreet look, you have discrete luxury and classic elegance in a case that measures only 5.9mm thick. The movement is viewable through the sapphire case back. And, being an A. Lange & Söhne, it has a superb level of finish worthy of attention.

This refined, handsome dress watch has been distilled to the essence of timekeeping for people who enjoy low-key designs, it is presented in an 18-carat casing of either pink or white gold and costs $23,000. alange-soehne.com
