Thank you so much for this info! I am so grateful to you and to all the others on TPF who take the time to educate us on the stuff we love:biggrin: I haven’t bought the watch yet, but it’s the only one that DH has liked on me lately. (The runner up is a sparkly blue face one from Alange).

Beautiful Dior watch. I agree A. Lange is an exceptional brand. Which one has the sparkly blue face? My son and husband have been eyeing a number of their watches. We visited their boutique in NYC and the SAs were very kind and helpful.

@Cool Breeze, love the ALange boutique. Everyone there is so wonderful! you may have seen it at the Madison Avenue boutique in the second case on the right as you enter. On the website, it’s this one:

SAXONIA THIN - 205.086 | A. Lange & Söhne

The SAXONIA THIN is the manufactory’s flattest watch so far. It focuses on the essential functions of a mechanical timepiece: the display of hours and minutes. The model version in white gold features a dial made of silver, faced with dark-blue gold flux.

In person, the watch face looks like a night sky with stars. 24K USD which is substantially less than the Dior, but the ALange doesn’t have dancing peacock feathers :D

Isn’t it nice to have to have such great choices?! Whichever one you select will be stunning.

Congratulations! The watch is very nice! Actually, the movement is the Dior Inverse movement done in a partnership with the movement producer Soprod. It is exclusive to Dior. The decorated oscillating weight is meant to resemble a twirling Haute Couture ball gown.

There are also a number of rare Dior watches with Zenith Elite movements, usually the high jewelry ones with mechanical movements. Those do not have the oscillating weight on the dial side of the watch.

I wish Dior emphasized their watch lines more. They are truly unique, and definitely outside of the normal watch-brand "favorites".

What a gorgeous watch . . . . Understated, elegant, powerful!
