Best Replica A. Lange & Söhne Little Lange 1 Moon Phase
Now you know that this is the big year for Lange 1. It's the penultimate album released to mark the family's 25th anniversary. The 36.8 mm camera is the small Lange 1, which debuted two years ago.
Limited to 25 pieces, the two-toned blue steel hands, argente dial, and blueprinting theme continue. Like Stephen has touched on in the past, this treatment is amazing. It really has to be seen to be appreciated. The printed dial adds a level of informality and the blue just really pops against the silver. We see the blue-filled engraving of the balance cock with the small inlaid 25 date window on the case back. While, on the back of the replica watch, the manufacture caliber L121.2, as you'd expect, painstakingly finished, polished, and decorated by hand, runs at a frequency of 21,600 semi-oscillations an hour and, with a twin mainspring barrel, only needs to be wound every three days.

I'm totally enthusiastic about this fake watch. There is no doubt that I have great respect for the Lange brand. Lange 1 is the main product of this series. The star here is undoubtedly the moon. Up close, the handwork on the show really is a piece of art. Having seen the replica watches being worn on a female wrist, proportionally, much like the dial, it's wonderfully balanced. Traditionally this size has been squarely concentrated on the female market, but given the success of various reissue pieces in and around that size within the last 12 months, it would also look so nice on smaller male wrists. Still, as the company shrinks and female buyers become more interested in machinery and finishing, I have no doubt the little guy will disappear before we know it.
