History

A. Lange & Söhne was refounded in 1990, after German reunification, on the manufacture Ferdinand Adolph Lange had established in Glashütte in 1845 and which postwar nationalization had interrupted. Since relaunching in 1994, the Saxon house built its reputation on hand-decorated, hand-finished calibers following Glashütte watchmaking codes: solid-silver plates instead of rhodium-plated brass, blued screws, Côtes de Genève, and hand-engraved balance cocks.

The Saxonia collection groups the Lange catalog's purest dress watches, without the complications of the Lange 1 or the Zeitwerk. Within it, the Saxonia Thin line, introduced in 2015, focuses specifically on the technical challenge of extreme thinness: cases just six to seven millimeters thick overall, unusual for high-end manually wound mechanical watchmaking.

Reference 205.086, added to the catalog in 2018, runs Caliber L093.1, a manually wound movement just 2.9mm thick with a flat single-barrel mainspring and 72 hours of power reserve — a notably high figure for such a thin caliber. The dial, in solid silver (925) finished with a dark-blue-toned gold flux, is a handcraft technique Lange uses across several of its most exclusive executions.

This is A. Lange & Söhne's first reference in Cazador's catalog, part of the project's priority to extend its coverage to German high-watchmaking manufactures alongside traditional Swiss houses.
