Reference 252.025 belongs to A. Lange & Söhne's Richard Lange collection, a line conceived as a tribute to the precision observation timepieces of earlier centuries. The 39mm platinum case houses a silver dial laid out with Roman numeral hour markers, preserving the clean, instrument-like character the collection is known for. Water resistance reaches 30 metres, and the case shape is round with an exhibition caseback that opens a view directly onto the movement within.
Powering the watch is a manual-wind movement displaying hours, minutes, and seconds. Through the exhibition caseback, the hand-finished movement components — including the engraved balance cock — are visible, reflecting the meticulous craft associated with German watchmaking. The movement was produced in 2017, placing this reference firmly within a well-documented period of the collection's history.
The watch is fitted on a black alligator strap secured by a tang buckle, lending it versatility across dress and casual settings. Suitable for men or women, it carries the dual-style designation of dress and casual wear, making it an adaptable choice for those who appreciate German horology in a restrained, scientifically inspired form.
