Thanks Mark….with 4 1815s on the top row, may I ask why 1815 will be a good candidate?

Function wise, power reserve is also available on Lange 1?

No questions…

Actually there is…There is no question I love this brand since 2015. There is no question I dislike the current allocation policy or whatever it is happening. This is no question I may already be blacklisted lol…for buying boutique only piece or limited e...
That’s what caught my eye, Raymond . . .

You obviously have some strong feelings for the 1815 family. The one I saw missing and you will probably have no challenges acquiring would be the 1815 Up/Down, which is an ageless, classic beauty IMHO!

Thank You

You have assembled a wonderful collection!
By: als1678 : August 8th, 2022-01:01
I have bad news for you though - you might have to go for that datograph perpetual tourbillon, especially if you can find the white gold ... Or the 1815 rattrapante perpetual. You can "complete" the Lange 1 look with the perpetual, but somehow it seems to...
Datograph
By: TeutonicCarFan : August 8th, 2022-01:27
Amazing grouping! Sad to see the changes at the brand.
That is a downfall
By: TeutonicCarFan : August 8th, 2022-16:48
The up down fixes that but changes the dial. The larger diameter may even out the watch?
Such a Lovely Gathering of Superb References!
By: walidk : August 8th, 2022-02:52
I’ve always admired your posts and passion. This is such a wonderful and colorful assembly of lovely pieces. I think your thinking re the dato perpetual tourbillon is awesome as others mentioned a PLM to mix it up or sax-o-mat would pretty much complete i...
Appreciate your kind words and nice recommendations…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-03:41
I’m honored and happy to hear my posts add some value. The watches you mentioned are definitely on my radar especially the Langematik Perpetual Calendars and I missed the opportunity to get the HG and the Dato Lumen back in the days when I still have acce...
I hear you!
By: walidk : August 8th, 2022-05:07
It definitely becomes exhausting. Its a strange world where a customer has to hope for the ‘honor and privilege’ of spending their hard earned cash… I have become blasé about it all and don’t care for waiting, asking, bundling, and playing games: if its n...
Wow you have the cellini prince
By: Cookies : August 8th, 2022-06:55
Extremely beautiful piece. I recalled walking past rolex boutiques in the early 2010’s and seeing this beauty on display.
Lange 31
By: penfriend : August 8th, 2022-08:11
would fit very well in that box! Totally different beast imho
Thanks for the input…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-15:28
I may not have the wrist to pull that one off…heavyweights 😜💪🏻
What a beautiful collection!
By: andrea~ : August 8th, 2022-08:25
You could go crazy and add a minute repeater or a handwerkskunst piece, or maybe a rattrappante, double split or triple split
Thanks 🙏🏻
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-16:33
I will try to get one that I can wear comfortably. I can’t handle too thick or heavy watches.
Fantastic Collection!
By: Saxon : August 8th, 2022-08:31
All kind of metal, all lines covered, bravo. No tourbillon yet, no PLM and the sax-0-mat movement is missing. So a Langematik PC (RG or WG blue dial or black dial), a Lange 1 PC tourbillon would be a nice choice, Datograph PC tourbillon, or for the long h...
Impressive collection you've got there
By: George Gently : August 8th, 2022-09:43
Probably not the most popular opinion/recommandation, my dear Raymond, but I wouldn't add any Lange & Söhne timepiece. In stead I'd focus on other offerings from less arrogant brands. And maybe find a 11 piece box ;-) Regards, George
You know how it works, bring the tent over...🤣
By: ZSHSZ : August 8th, 2022-16:27
You’re right this monsters are quite thick, and heavy, but when on the wrist, the satisfaction is unbelievable. As for the allocation, I went to the Boutique about five times, showed my two pieces and since then I’m in, now only if money would be an optio...
Good for you buddy…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-16:31
Now they see you as new darling with potential 👍🏻💪🏻 For me, I think my chances are going to be different. I had asked for some of those pieces you show there and all told sold out. It’s ok, if they feel like saving the “goodies” for new clients, so be it....
My days are numbered…lol.
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-20:27
This is for the successful 30s and 40s I’m also close to the end and like yourself, maybe only Rolex and Omega still loves me. Enjoy!
Datograph, Dato Perp, or Data Perp Tourbillon
By: ik2000 : August 8th, 2022-11:33
I love your collection. The 1815 Chrono boutique would be my '1 watch only' watch. It has everything I need in life! However, it does seem strange looking at 11 beautiful Langes, and not seeing a Dato there. For me, the Dato is Lange. The flagship. The pi...
You hit all the right notes…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-16:14
I’m super tempted on a DPT to complete the range. The reason I chose the 1815 Chrono is the wearability and movement is same as Datograph. Looks like I need some more donations 😂
That’s a monster piece too…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 8th, 2022-16:28
With 4 1815s, maybe I’ll take a Tourbillon from another family model but I agree, a PLM or Tourbillon or Perpetual will complete my box.
Tough decision!
By: watchoji : August 9th, 2022-03:54
I concur with the idea of a Perpetual Calendar... Or maybe a ZW Decimal Strike if you can find one. And you can't buy any new pieces or just no limited edition pieces?
"Final Lange"... You're not dead yet, my friend! :)
By: CR : August 9th, 2022-05:12
I understand the frustration, for sure! Now, on to your question... The printing and moonphase on the Dato Perpetual are too small for my taste, and the dial too cluttered. That experience doesn't improve with age As others have said, an original Dato wou...
Lol….they put a death sentence on me instead!
By: Clueless_Collector : August 9th, 2022-05:38
I’m still puzzled and wondered what did I do wrong till this day? The fact that I’ve seen pieces that I want, told no or sold out but allocated to new(er) clients and bundling for me but not some are the final straw. I told many I have only myself to blam...
I know many suggested the Datograph…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 9th, 2022-13:47
I chose the newer 1815 chrono for the same movement, longer and preferred power reserve plus easier to my wrist when wearing. I hear you though, appreciate the input.
Well...
By: greatpa : August 10th, 2022-07:52
I was thinking about a Lange 1. I mean, just a simple Lange 1 with no complications. Maybe even an early example if pre owned is your thing..
Amazing Collection
By: rld : August 10th, 2022-11:52
Amazing collection. Only one chrono though and I think a Pt Dato (I prefer the first generation version) would nicely complement what you have now. On the other hand, I agree that no collection of this level is complete without a model with a Langematik m...
Good suggestions and observations…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 10th, 2022-14:16
I was debating where to put the empty slot because the Saxonia Thin used to be there but I moved it down since the row represents each family. Maybe you’re right my mind subconsciously thinking a L1 PC and I agree with all your points. Thanks for your kin...
Great collection!
By: DarrenKats : August 10th, 2022-14:52
Lange 1 QP would fill out the middle Lange 1 row nicely and add the perpetual calendar complication. Or tourbillon L1 QP! OG dato platinum or of course the Dato perpetual tourbillon. Even the OG zeitwerk in white gold would be nice.
Yes, I need a perpetual calendar…
By: Clueless_Collector : August 10th, 2022-16:29
Too many great choice but I think it’s becoming quite clear. Thanks my friend, love your collection too, all very nice ones 💪🏻
Your Lange collection is outstanding !
By: borisundercover : October 30th, 2022-08:38
As a total outsider, looking at all these beauties, I’ll go for a model from the Cabaret line, as its case is totally different from what you already got while having a lot of charm and class. Congratulations on these 11 soon to be 12 remarkable pieces of...
Thank you for your kind words…
By: Clueless_Collector : October 30th, 2022-15:07
The cabaret line does have a lot of character…although I’m a fan of round cases, who knows if I see one, it might work. Happy Sunday to you too.
Raymond!…your comment about
By: Darron : October 30th, 2022-15:19
Being a “smaller customer” is pretty posting this pic of a box with only 1 slot to fill is hurting your cause? 😂 Can’t you tell them you want to buy like 3-4 more watches and get in their good graces 😀
I know what you meant…
By: Darron : October 30th, 2022-15:36
Just teasing you. But it is ridiculous that your historical purchases are not properly “counted.”
Thank you! I am indeed…
By: south : October 30th, 2022-17:34
Very happy to have it. Then again, I was denied some further models I wanted (in particular the ZW Honey Gold Lumen).
