In today’s market condition, seriously contemplating to add an ALS Chrono to my collection again

Regardless of everything that little flame of love for Lange is still there. Which one would you pick ? The ref 1815 - 401.031 first generation or the 404.035 - mighty double split. ...  

Thinking of the dato too, recently

But question is, why limit yourself to just these two? I think the rose gold black dial combo is visually very attractive, and also circumvents the issue with the earlier Datograph in platinum that could feel top heavy. Rose gold 1815 or Datograph would p... 

Perhaps another angle, what suits your collection best?

If you have a “simple” Patek chrono, perhaps the 1815 might have trouble to get its spot... the DS Will always be unique! Dirk

In terms of wearability, the 1815. In terms of complication, the Double Split. A pure Marvel.

So if your wrist can wear it, the Double Split is the one.

I wore it a few hours many years back and indeed it is very very top heavy

But what a watch right, what a blast of a movement

It is indeed quite a beast on the wrist

But that movement is mindblowing.

Great suggestion 😂 [nt]

DS for its unique facia and extraordinarily gorgeous movement

Once you go DS you will never think what if or other chrono movement. Perhaps maybe for TS and only TS

I have an obvious preference for the original 1815 chrono...

.... Having said that, you can't go wrong with any Lange chrono. ...  

Nice shot 👍 [nt]

Bit unfair

Not quit a fair competition haha but if it’s just the looks then I would pick the 1815 first gen.

DS all the way

Such a powerful watch and ridiculously amazing movement

I agree with you totally

DS is a legendary Chrono
