Exploring ALS- Is it hard to obtain the Odysseus ref. 363.068?

Just starting to explore haute horology. I was just curious how difficult it is to obtain the WG version of the Odysseus? Do I have to have a prior relationship? Would love to hear experiences.

WG one is no problem. The SS model is the hard one to get and requires previous purchases.

IMO the WG looks better than the SS, especially on rubber.

Thanks! Would this has to be through a boutique or can I purchase through an AD? Also are there any discounts like other ALS watches?

Think there's a slight waiting time but nothing outrageous. I agree the rubber looks better than the leather.

Only through boutique no discount. I think even the WG requires a prior purchase history at full retail.

In the US, the WG Odysseus Datomatic is available through ADs as well as boutiques, though few deliveries have occurred thus far (because it's still a pretty new model and because of the pandemic). Unlike the steel version, no prior Lange purchase is required. I'm not sure if this varies in other markets.
