Lang & Heyne Georg

Possibly the most beautiful rectangular watch available at any price.

Spectacular movement and case architecture, immaculate finishing of all parts.

A masterpiece.

Gorgeous. As you say, movement architecture and finishing is top notch. One of the best from an old-school movement perspective.

Absolutely love the watch. Only visual problem for me is I can’t stop looking at the “superfluous” middle lug. It seems really weird to me. But I really like the dial!

Love it other than the third lug design feature.

They should put a movement like that if not the same in other watches. Looks awesome.

The third lug makes the watch unique. It’s also a feature of every Lang & Heyne.

Agree 100%. Saw their shop in Dresden - the brand is on my top-to-buy list.

At least in the past you could request two lugs, not sure if that’s true today.

Absolutely love this watch. When I finally tracked one down to try on several years ago it was unfortunately a monster on my wrist. So that was that. Only admiration from afar now.

How big is your wrist? It’s not that big of a watch.

32mmX40m is a pretty big watch. The diagonal measurement would be 51mm.
