Lange Price increase

Lange raising prices in May. About 7% or so.

Also, Odysseus WG is now an allocation piece. So no 'reservations' are being taken.

7% to 12% annual price increase is just staying even to currency devaluation. This way the actual cost is about the same year to year.

signs of recession and bear market starting ....timing could be interesting as Lange goes big.

good or bad markets - Hermes is measured in volume and price increases. Consistency is important and Hermes is the holly grail of luxury.

Lange, R. Mille and Journe - be careful you do not overplay your hand.

If you order now with a 30% deposit (as required in London) with a delivery in 6 months, would ALS boutique honour the price now? Looking at a 1815 but been quoted that timeframe.

Can only lock in price if you pay full deposit prior to 5/1.

Glad I just got my datograph before the price increase! I was told the price is slated to increase by roughly $11,000.

What a beauty! Big congrats!

Just looked up the dimensions --- looks very wearable, despite the complications.

Please post more pics (movement, wristshots etc.)!!

Confirmed the overall price increase of ~10% or so today at the Boutique. On the "entry models" like Saxonia and Saxonia Thin, the increase appear to be much higher (closer to 20% range). Could be also a function of specific local currency fluctuation.

1815 chrono is going from 60k to almost 68k. Big jump.

The preowned price won’t change much anyway, Lange trying their best to be trading at 60% pre owned again

Timing of the price increase is coinciding with a cooling of the market. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Beautiful new piece! I pulled trigger on a dato but will need to wait a while for it as I am getting the balance cock engraved on this one, same as my 1815 Chrono. Looks like this will be the last one as they have stopped all new requests for engravings due to the supply issues right now.

Should be about 5k increase. Before price increase dato is 106k. After I think is 111k. Had to pay in full to lock in my price.

The rose gold % increase is higher than the platinum.
