Walter Lange is a beauty, Raymond!

Is it in yellow gold? I would liked to buy the same one, but it was too late..

Can you use its complication?

The little Lange 1 is also very interesting, especially its colour! I have never seen one like that!

Congrats for your very tasty collection!

Yours,

Adam

It all started in 2015....

And now I have a small family that is growing....can’t be happier 😊 I know, no Automatic movement, Zeitwerk or other “bigger” complications yet but I’m working on it. ...  

Lots to like in this heavy metal collection

Congratulations for some bold choices! This purple Lange 1 is certainly special - how many pieces were made?

The purple is Little Lange 1 boutique edition and it's for my wife, but I can wear it too :)

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-14:43
That is limited to 100 pcs. Thank you VinnieD.

Very nice...

This brand makes such mechanical wonders, and a pleasure to view them.

now that’s a Big Bang !

love the honey gold 1815 & the enamel 1815 - damn good collection... Best, Mahesh.,

No enamel...unfortunately...wish though.

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-15:08
Thanks Mahesh, never enough of Lange, imho.

well done!!!!!!! [nt]

Now I can officially call you.....

Langeholic!!! 😁😁

You’re embarrassing me here, my friend....

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-16:01
Langeholic want-to-be maybe 😅

Holy Cow Raymond!

 
 By: cazalea : July 21st, 2019-16:11
What an incredible assemblage of fine machinery! You do have a tendency to like German engineering, I think? Cazalea

Oh yes....now that you mentioned....I do prefer German engines 😉, great observation Cazalea...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-16:16
now if only that G-tank gets delivered...after >1 year of waiting already, longer than my SS Rolex!

I showed a friend a picture of your car, he got inspired and a few weeks later he sent me this photo

 
 By: cazalea : July 21st, 2019-16:23
He lives on Puget Sound and the sub-14ft length gets him a ferry ticket discount on every trip, plus his company pays him $.55 a mile for driving on business (about 1000 mi a month). He's hoping it will a profit center this year ...  

If my car gets front/rear ended, it’ll look like that 🤣

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-16:29
Man, your friend is so smart, free electric charge, premium parking at malls and get paid for driving without gas...or shall I say, the company needs to revise their policy for mileage reimbursement? Good for him, enjoy before people starts to find out ca... 

Absolutely stunning!

 
 By: Rhyzen : July 21st, 2019-16:28
As with Lange, they all look spectacular from both the front and the back. What a collection!

Thank you Rhyzen....hope someday I can attain other models in their lineup.

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-16:32
Some are just thicker than what I prefer, but I’m sure when that time comes, I’ll adjust myself 😬

You have great taste, Evan1...like I said, don’t miss out on these mechanical wonders....

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-16:57
PP and Rolex are must have, so are ALS and Omega, for me.

agreed indeed [nt]

Thank you vitalsigns. [nt]

That is a great range, a lot of variety in there really.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : July 21st, 2019-17:15
The ZW is such a different piece, a novelty or a curiosity maybe, I don’t think it’s necessary as part of a Lange collection. My favourite of the bunch above maybe the Honey Gold 1815. Somebody, I don’t this it was you, posted this watch several months ag... 

I saw you have a 2nd gen Dato in the CM forum?

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-17:27
You should be able to pull it off this thinner 40mm 1815. I’m into variety and different looks For my watches. Thank you Jay.

Yes, I do, and despite the size I found it very wearable.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : July 21st, 2019-17:37
It was an exception for me, at that price point watches need to be perfect and the size really was not perfect (even though I found it wearable). It’s part of why I’m letting it go. But I’ve tried on others, smaller in diameter, and I’m not convinced. 38.... 

True, sometimes we do have to make exceptions...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-18:52
eg, if I were to get a ZW, just because it’s a Lange specialty. So for 38.5mm, current Lange 1s will fit perfect. Thoughts on the new series of 25th anniversary pieces?

I tried to get my hands on the Wempe Up/Down. No chance.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : July 22nd, 2019-04:19
I’ve also been looking and looking at early series YG Lange 1. A classic I think.

i probably will not get another 1815 since I’ve 4 already....

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 22nd, 2019-07:25
Yes, the earlier ones with a solid case. Hope you find your desired piece soon.

I wish I have the Referenz Uhr....they are getting scarce by the day...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-22:37
The one you're referring to is the Walter Lange Homage Thanks for the kind comments, ZSHSZ.

Amazing collection 👌🏻😘

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : July 21st, 2019-23:29
You can be proud

I’m super happy after all these years of collecting...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 21st, 2019-23:34
Major turning point starts 2014. Thank you Watchonthewrist.

A Zeitwerk would be so something

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : July 22nd, 2019-04:15
Very cool armada of Langes! A Zeitwerk would be a sensible addition, or a model with Lange's micro rotor movement? 🤔

Yup, a Langematik Perpetual is what I’m hoping for in Pt or WG...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 22nd, 2019-07:21
That will be another major project to work on. Thanks Count.

Not the Honey Gold variant? [nt]

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : July 22nd, 2019-07:58

I have the 1815 HG so prefer a different look...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 22nd, 2019-08:07
The Pt version looks to be my ideal vision of a PC watch...and the WG/Black dial was made only 1-2 years and we know Lange’s black dial watches are stunning.

Walter Lange is a beauty, Raymond!

Hi Adam...appreciate your kind comments.

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 22nd, 2019-12:56
Yes, that is the YG Walter Lange limited to 27pcs. I was lucky to make the call when it was first released by a certain blog, don’t remember which one, and the boutique didn’t even know the news yet 😂...so I got approved. I do play with the dead beat star... 

The Lange Boutiques

 
 By: Speedie74 aka Mr. Torquise : July 22nd, 2019-13:38
play also the same game with 25th Anniversary Models.. I have had the opportunity to buy the rosegold Walter Lange Hommage, but I didn’t buy it at the end. My absolute favourite piece was the one you have: the yellow gold. Yours, Adam

So you have to buy something in order to get the RG Hommage?

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : July 22nd, 2019-14:30
Let’s hope they don’t play with fire 🔥 too much.

No,

 
 By: Speedie74 aka Mr. Torquise : July 23rd, 2019-03:40
if I would like to buy something from the 25th Anniversary Series, than I must buy more models from the Series...
