A. Lange & Sohne Saxonia Automatic 37mm Diamond Bezel Yellow Gold

The A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Automatic Ref. 840.021 represents refined German watchmaking at its most elegant. This 37mm timepiece in 18k yellow gold features a diamond-set bezel with 80 brilliant-cut stones framing a silvered dial. The manufacture Caliber L086.1 automatic movement delivers 72 hours of power reserve with exceptional finishing including Geneva striping, perlage, and hand-engraved balance cock. Limited water resistance to 30 meters maintains the dress watch positioning while sapphire exhibition caseback reveals movement architecture.

Saxonia collection debuted in 1994 as one of four founding models when Walter Lange reestablished the manufacture. The automatic variant introduced later modernized the line with self-winding convenience. Caliber L086.1 features micro-rotor construction allowing slim 7.8mm case thickness. Movement comprises 209 components with 31 jewels beating at 21,600 vph. German silver three-quarter plate construction with blued screws maintains traditional Glashütte finishing standards established in the 19th century.

Factory diamond bezel elevates this reference above standard Saxonia production. White crocodile leather strap with 18k yellow gold pin buckle completes the precious metal presentation. Small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock provides classical proportions. Applied baton hour markers in 18k gold prevent tarnishing. This preowned example represents accessible entry into A. Lange & Söhne ownership with automatic convenience and diamond embellishment rarely seen at manufacture level on Saxonia models.
