The Little Lange 1 was once a men’s watch when it debuted 30 years ago, a few years after its introduction in 1994. Consumers would prefer a smaller Lange 1, as the original 38.5 mm was consider as a big watch back in the day, rendering the Little Lange 1 more popular.
Just 36 mm in diameter, the Little Lange 1 had the same dial and movement as its brother reference, but in a smaller case without a button to advance the date, a recessed pusher did that job instead.
Unlike the second generation men’s Lange 1 that is now equipped with a new movement, the Little Lange 1 retains the original calibre L901.4 movement. It has the quintessential features of the Lange 1, an oversized date display as well as a three day power reserve, the older movement is definitely more decorative and visually appealing, with the signature “island” bridges sitting within the three-quarter plate.
