But I have the perfect answer, Amanico.
The Lange 1, when introduced, was originally equipped with reflective glass--and was later modified by Lange to anti-reflective. (So I am told... I'll ask Alkis to verify.) But even if this were nor the case--er--crystal--I would still not feel that I was in any way 'changing' the character or the maker's intentions for this watch. Because it is 'only' the crystal, not the case, movement, or dial.
I have to say, I prefer it so much to anti-reflective! In the coming months, I'm sure I'll get a picture that really shows what I'm trying to describe.
Thanks.

...are an excellent reminder of one of the more puzzling decisions out of ALS: the black background date window looks so 'right' on the 'Darth' - why oh why was it not employed on the other black dial Lange Ones? Cheers, pplater.
