Now if we're talking hockey pucks, you need to try on one of the grand complications, that's a hockey puck. Just for the record, however, I wouldn't turn it down if given to me.��
Completely agree. I've been wearing my Dato up down straight for a couple months now, and have gotten so used to the weight and case proportions that my other watches feel too light now. It's an amazing watch - so much so that my 1815 chrono (original version) hasn't seen the light of day ever since.

I'd still like to add a Lange to the collection


Had the Saxonia thin 37mm and the 38.5mm Lange 1 on my wrist and they both look good.





This is the first time I had a sub 40mm Lange on and I'm very happy that the lugs don't push passed my wrist.

What do you guys think? One vs the other vs something else?
Thanks
May I know your wrist size?

If simplicity and elegance you're after then definitely the Sax Thin 37. It's just amazing how it looks with a suit, jacket, or even a sweater. Pure class for a dress watch.

If you desire a little originality and brand recognition then L1 is your choice.

Another Lange you might wanna look into is the Saxonia Moon Phase. Just wow.
