250 is still a large number for that. They generate revenues of ~€ 250m annually. So I doubt they have so many VVIP customers.

Got similar feedback from a boutique:

"As a boutique we may only get one and it would have to be allocated to a collector of A. Lange that shops with the boutique. Currently to be considered a collector of A. Lange you would need a minimum of 400k euros to qualify. "

The finishing on the titanium bracelet is a step or two up. The dial too. If you have a SS on order I’d recommend asking to switch now… even if it means more wait time.

There is no availability. You can’t switch anything. Lol.
