A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Annual Calendar 238.026E White Gold Silver Dial

The A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Annual Calendar Ref. 238.026E  is a masterful blend of horological tradition and contemporary refinement, embodying the ethos of the legendary Glashütte-based manufacture. Encased in lustrous 18k white gold, its 40mm diameter strikes an impeccable balance between classic dimensions and modern wearability, making it a versatile companion for formal and everyday elegance.

The silver dial exudes understated sophistication with its fine-grained texture, harmoniously integrating an annual calendar and moon phase complication. These features are designed with both aesthetic and functional precision: the calendar displays the day, date, and month, needing adjustment only once per year, while the moon phase complication boasts an accuracy span of over a century, lending an astronomical charm to the timepiece.

Delicately tempered blue-steel hands and crisply printed Arabic numerals evoke the spirit of traditional pocket watches, a defining hallmark of the 1815 collection. The hand-stitched black alligator leather strap enhances the watch’s luxurious yet restrained aesthetic, providing a comfortable and timeless pairing with its white gold case.

Powering this horological marvel is a manually wound movement, a testament to A. Lange & Söhne’s commitment to mechanical artistry. Visible through the sapphire crystal case back, the movement showcases the brand’s exceptional craftsmanship, with meticulously hand-decorated bridges, polished edges, and a three-quarter plate adorned with Glashütte ribbing.

The 1815 Annual Calendar is more than a timepiece—it is a celebration of German precision, artistry, and innovation. Designed for connoisseurs who appreciate the interplay of functionality and poetic design, it stands as a statement of timeless luxury and mechanical excellence.
