Aesthetically, the older one (on the right) looks more interesting to me, especially with the distinctive anchor shaped bridge and the stop works on the barrel. The new one looks a bit plain in comparison.

Older. Looks much nicer (barrel, etc.), and the "pre-jump" doesn't bother me at all. But I'm biased because we tend to prefer what we already own.

The pre jump and the revised non pre jump movements look all but identical - I think the picture on the left is a ZW date but this does look very similar to the movement in the new HG Lumen which is expected to also come out in regular production. The one on the right is the revised non pre jump movement.

Had the chance to try on this Little Lange 1 yesterday.

Fit so much better than Lange 1 on my smaller wrist. The dial is amazing !

Absolutely! The 36mm version is wonderful on small wrists.



My two favorite modern Little Lange 1s are these (photo credit to Deployant):

the guilloche is so underrated. the aventurine is basically impossible to get - they are taking names but not deposits. i got lucky and got a saxonia copper blue thin. somehow the LLMP Copper Blue looks like more intense gold flux compared to my Copper Blue.

The intensity of the Aventurine depends on the lighting, but overall, I find it way less conspicuous than one might initially expect from such a sparkly dial. I love how my Saxonia Thin Aventurine flies under the radar.

I was also lucky enough to acquire one last fall relatively easily. Sounds like it’s much harder to track one down these days.

Already bought one in April before the new price increases in May and waiting for delivery maybe within 1-3 months.

I chose the Little Lange 1 in Grey.

I prefer to look at the case back more so than the dial.

Tried on Lange 31 today at a boutique. Oh boy… This has got to be the most impressive watch I have ever touched, ever… You really have to experience it to believe it…

$200K though, ouch! But again, words and pics don’t do it justice. Wow, just wow…

I love the concept of this watch, although, based on pictures, the dial side looks a bit plain to me ...

Yeah, I thought so too, but in person it’s incredible. The gray dial is gorgeous, and all the hands, date, etc. stand out beautifully. I love that it’s not busy, it looks simple yet balanced in person. Wrist presence is off the charts, but in a subdued way (if that makes sense).

Looks great! I'm waiting for my 1815 up/down to come in. I'm thinking of getting a few Delugs straps as well. I have read concerns of the steel spring bars in a gold case instead of gold spring bars. Do you have any insights on this?
