-Description
A. Lange & Söhne was founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in Glashütte on the outskirts of Dresden, the capital of the former Kingdom of Saxony (now Saxony, Germany).
Although the brand was famous for its beautiful and high-quality pocket watches against the backdrop of the court culture of the time, the brand was forced into dormancy when the workshop was nationalized during the division between East and West Germany.
In 1990, following the reunification of Germany, the descendants of the Lange family miraculously revived the company, and continue to produce watches that reflect the founder's spirit of "aiming to make the world's best watches."
It has a reputation alongside the three major Swiss brands of Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin, and is a true Manufacture, with all components made in-house.
A very distinctive feature is that all Lange watches undergo a process known as double assembly..
Saxonia is one of the four models presented in 1994 as the first Lange revival collection.
The name comes from the state of Saxony, and if the Lange 1 is the collection that symbolizes the brand, the Saxonia is the collection that symbolizes the dress watches of Saxony.
The reference 105.022 presented here is one from the 2000s.
The case is made of 18K yellow gold and has a small case size of 34mm, which is not seen in the current collection.
The dial is a symmetrical silver dial. It features Lange's signature outsize date with large date display and sub seconds.
The case back has a transparent back, allowing a full view of the finely finished and engraved movement.
The main plate, which covers most of the movement, is called the “three-quarter plate” and is a symbol of Lange watches. Since the baseplate is untreated, its colour gradually changes over time, giving it an endearing appearance.
It is easier to understand why A. Lange & Söhne watches are so highly regarded than to explain in words.
Full set with box, warranty paper and so on. It is marked as sold in Japan in 2009 and has been fully serviced by the A.Lange Söhne service center in 2020.
It comes with a genuine leather strap and genuine YG buckle.

In order to achieve this, the presence of a skilled repair craftsman is essential.
How well the work is done depends largely on the thoughts of the craftsman.
The watchmakers who Arbitro asks are craftsmen who do not cut corners in such areas, so we ask them to carry out the repair work with peace of mind.
About Complete Service
Complete service, sometime called overhaul is the work of disassembling a mechanical product down to its individual parts, cleaning and reassembling it to bring it closer to its new state of performance.
Roughly speaking, the overhaul procedure is as follows.
1. Separate into case and movement
2. Disassemble the movement
3. Inspection and pre-cleaning of wear condition of each part
4. Wash parts with a special machine
5. Lubrication and assembly
6. Waterproof test
7. Final adjustment and running test.
Some movements are made up of hundreds of parts, but it is a very meticulous process of disassembling them one by one, inspecting them all, cleaning them, and reassembling them.
If you don't overhaul, the oil will deteriorate just like a car, and the risk of wear and damage to parts increases, causing a decrease in accuracy and, in severe cases, not working.
There is also the reason that it will be very expensive to replace parts after they are found to be damaged, so we recommend overhauling once every 2-3 years for economical and long-term use.
About Polishing
Vintage watches have been used for decades, and even the stainless steel used in many watches has rounded corners that were originally sharp, and has many small scratches even though the mirror finish should be beautiful. state.
At Arbitro, some watches are sold with a new finish, based on the idea that you can purchase them in beautiful condition and use them for a long time.
In particular, gold-cased dress watches are finished to bring out the best of the precious metal case.
The watches sold by us that have been given a new finish are shot in very high definition, so you can see that the edges stand out and the light is reflected by the mirror finish.
Also, depending on the case or bracelet, there are cases where multiple finishes such as mirror finish and hairline finish are mixed, but there are not many craftsmen who can distinguish between them and finish them at a high level.
In addition, the “thinness of the case” is also a part that is greatly influenced by the skill of the craftsman.
A watch that has become thinner and has thinner lugs is far from its original design, and the appearance becomes unbalanced.
It is a very precise work that brings the case closer to the original finish by eliminating scratches and dents while reducing the thickness of the case to the utmost limit.
Of course, there are cases where it is better to use the watch as it is, in order to emphasize the history of the watch and its original condition.
We look at each watch and judge whether it is best to finish it before selling it.
