Chromatic Fugue
1850
Can’t speak to the AC
but I owned that L1 moonphase for a while. I seldom wore it, so I traded it. It’s a great watch, particular under a loupe/macro lens, and the distinct moonphase and day/night disks are delightful. But there were a few things that bugged me about it in really life. First, the dial color more often looks gray than black. Second, the date windows really should be black with white numerals rather than the opposite. Finally, if you wear any traditional L1 on your left wrist under a cuff, it is annoyingly harder to tell the time than to … see how much power reserve is left. Of course, all these critiques are extremely subjective…

Which one is better for collecting and sometimes wearing Images adjusted ...
The Lange 1 gets my vote
It's one of the true watch design icons. I especially love this version with the moonphase.
For collecting...I don't know...as a watch...
...I think the AC has a couple of flaws with the layout and implementation. The 'Annual Calendar' in the sub-dial shouldn't be there. And a manual movement is impractical.
The only downside to white gold in this model I find …
The rose gold to have slightly better legibility for the 3 sub dials. However I have seen them in the flesh. I am not sure yet which version I will get

I can also attest to the part about reading the time when the watch is partly under the cuff.
Can’t comment on collectibility, because the watch world has gone crazy.
Here is my vote
This turned out to be a lot more legible than I thought it would be. Love it. ...
Lange1
For me. More iconic piece from ALS, imho. This version is my favorite of their L1 moonphases
Which one is better?
I have both models and wearing the AC more. The adjustment mechanism is very easy. Hence, no issue it being manual wind. All the best!
Further opinions
Beyond my topics, probably can I ask further I have been bought 1815 Chrono from the boutique a month ago, you think my chance to get the Odessyus will be more possible If I acquire Lange 1 or 1815 AC, or it is not necessary to do that
I have n I still prefer Lange 1 moon phase😁🙏✌️
U will discover how brilliant of this new Lange 1 n sorry my poor pic, not professional 😅🙏enjoy ...
