If you are shopping for a fake Lange 2 Perpetual, the short answer is this: it is a replica of the Saxon perpetual calendar layout, combining the outsize date, the off-centre time dial and a moon phase in one wearable automatic watch. It is aimed at buyers who love the look of German haute horlogerie but do not want to tie up a house deposit in a single wristwatch. Every unit is assembled, regulated and checked at the bench before it ships, so the calendar discs and moon phase line up correctly out of the box.
Key Features
- Perpetual-style calendar display with day, date, month and moon phase
- Outsize double date window in the classic German arrangement
- Off-centre hour and minute dial with a small seconds subdial
- Automatic movement with a decorated rotor and exhibition caseback
- Sapphire-coated crystal front and back for scratch resistance
- Polished applied indices and heat-blued steel hands
- Alligator-grain leather strap with a signed deployant clasp
- Corrector pushers recessed into the case band for calendar setting
Materials and Specifications
The case is cut from 316L stainless steel and finished with a mix of brushed flanks and polished bevels, measuring roughly 41 mm across with a lug-to-lug of about 50 mm. The dial sits under a domed sapphire-coated crystal, while the sapphire display back shows the automatic movement, its jeweled gear train and a 40-hour power reserve. Water resistance is rated for everyday splash and rain protection, not swimming or diving, and the strap tapers from 20 mm at the lugs to a signed deployant clasp.
Shipping and Returns
Orders are packed discreetly in a plain outer box, dispatched within one to two business days and shipped with tracking to most destinations. Delivery typically lands in seven to fourteen days depending on customs clearance, and photographs of your exact watch are shared before dispatch. If the piece arrives damaged or does not match the listing, a thirty-day return or exchange window applies on unworn watches with the protective film intact.
Does the perpetual calendar actually work?
Yes. The day, date, month and moon phase all advance with the movement and are corrected by recessed pushers. Most replica versions track a complete annual cycle and need one manual correction per year; only the highest-grade builds add a working leap-year indicator.
How close is it to the original design?
Case proportions, dial architecture, date-disc typeface and strap hardware follow the original closely enough that the silhouette reads correctly on the wrist. It is an independent replica build and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or produced by the original manufacturer.
Will it suit a smaller wrist?
At roughly 41 mm with short, curved lugs it wears closer to a 39 mm watch, so wrists from about 6.5 inches upward sit comfortably. The leather strap can be punched or swapped for a shorter length if needed.
