My wife has that one. The dial is unbelievable. She saw it and it was her first Lange. In speaking to Lange execs, the watch is 50:50 in terms of men va women buying the piece. For me it is a bit to sparkly to wear but is perfect for my wife.

I would love to hear more or even have some pictures. I am considering purchase, but would love to see some real world pics.

It is a very hard watch to take in pictures. We tried one inside then our SA did one outside for us.

That’s awesome! From the couple of interviews I’ve seen with him, he seems very knowledgeable and down to earth. Would love to meet him one day.

Thinking about getting a secondary strap and want to source a rose gold Lange tang buckle. Anyone know the cost and best method/place to source one?

I’m pretty sure any strap would look good on that.

Got my first Lange from DavidSW. Fantastic guy, the forum hype is true. Paid and on my wrist in 24 hours. Looking forward to doing more business with him in the future. Aside from the stupid hot models there are good deals out there.

My smallest and least complicated piece but not the least impressive. Packs good weight for it's size. Love me some gold.

Well I pulled the plug Plantinum Double Split

ALS Platinum Double Split
I had been thinking about this one for some time.. I have the gold Datograph up/down and did not want another gold Lange so went for Platinum. The double split flyback makes it much more functional than seconds only split pieces. It is quite heavy but balances well even on my small wrist. Not the best photo but will take some real ones in the coming week or so..

Lovely piece 👍

A long time grail for me but alas too large for my wrist when push came to shove.

Amazing piece! Why is the "0" in the "10" on the minute counter green? Or is just reflex?

Beautiful watch... hoping to add one of my own (though maybe the rose gold) in the next couple years. Pure, simple perfection. Congrats!

Love wearing this one in a more casual setting/attire. Really versatile in my opinion.
