ALS 1815 up down

[Ghudsondvm]

I’m 99% sure my next purchase is going to be the ALS 1815 up down in rose gold. It’s a pain to go through the AD list on their website. Anyone have any Texas recommendations on ADs? I’m in Dallas but willing to travel. It appears most AD are in Houston.

Good choice. I’m also 99 percent sure this will be my next watch. Are you going with the 36 or 39mm?

[Ghudsondvm]

I was under the impression there was only 39 mm for the up down. At least that’s all that was listed on their site. Nonetheless I’d go for the 39.

36 would have to be pre-owned, the current production variant is 39

[Cozmopak]

Yes, prior to 2013 I believe they are 36. New willbe 39

My AD in La Jolla has a black dial version. 53K Let me know if you are interested and I'll give you the SA's number and he can text you a photo. Mention John (he know me well) and maybe he can help you with the price.

53k for that model seems a bit high at almost 2x MSRP. Are you referring to the 1815 chrono?

I would strongly consider going gray/pre-owned unless you are getting a decent discount on the 1815 u/d.

Btw, great watch. Almost bought it several times . May still getting it though leaning toward Saving more for the 1815 chrono to pair with my Lange One.

I agree with going gray. You will save a lot.

Lewis Jewelers is the AD in Houston. The location near the galleria carries Lange and Omega.

Thank you. I will investigate. I have been researching ALS heavily and am pretty set based off what I’ve read. I have yet to lay my hands on one in person though. Any chance you know what the inventory there or at ADs in general looks like? I’m not impartial to traveling and visiting a boutique which I assume would have more inventory, although I would call before making flight arrangements.

I went there about 18 months ago and they had a Zeitwerk, some Saxonia's (time only and the AC), Lange 1's, and a few 1815's. A decent collection for a small AD.

No chrono's, datographs, or anything else with high complications other than the Zeitwerk which they took out and let me wind and play with.

What did you think of the Zeitwerk?

Awesome watch. If I had the money, I would love to get it but I can't afford something that expensive.

The 1815 Up Down is a gorgeous watch. Have you considered the 1815 Annual Calendar?
