A serene presence and exquisite details
harmonize in the Saxonia Thin


A new Saxonia Thin has been released, featuring a tranquil midnight blue dial adorned with fine copper-blue crystals. This timepiece allows for a profound appreciation of horological beauty, with a dial reminiscent of a star-filled sky and intricate decorations applied even to the smallest details of the in-house movement.

An elegant model woven from deep blue and white gold



The new Saxonia Thin embodies the spirit of "less is more," pursuing ultimate simplicity. Its 39mm white gold case exudes refinement, while the copper-blue stars scattered across the midnight blue dial radiate a captivating sparkle. The case, hour and minute hands, and gold hour markers are all unified in the same color, creating a natural sense of harmony.

On the midnight blue dial, silver-toned hands and applied indices stand out with crisp clarity, evoking the profound depth of a beautiful night sky. The dial's surface is coated with a thin layer of aventurine, its extremely fine crystals shimmering to suggest distant stars. This is complemented by a dark blue alligator strap, imbuing the entire watch with a sense of profound tranquility.

The movement is adorned with exquisite decorations adhering to the highest quality standards of Saxon watchmaking, resulting in a beautiful finish that perfectly complements the watch's serene aesthetic. A key feature is the thin mainspring barrel housed within the in-house Caliber L093.1, measuring a mere 2.9mm in thickness. Despite its compact construction, it stores a power reserve of up to 72 hours. The movement is finished with a sunburst decoration on the winding wheels and is housed within a three-quarter plate adorned with Glashütte ribbing.

Further drawing the eye is the escapement. The balance cock, fitted with a swan-neck regulator, features beautifully hand-engraved patterns. The in-house hairspring drives a traditional Glashütte lever escapement with a free-sprung balance, ensuring precision. Three gold chatons secured by blued screws gleam, allowing one to fully appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship and horological artistry of A. Lange & Söhne, evident down to the finest detail.
