Difficult choice... but I would go to the Datograph Up&Down
At the end I would choose the Datograph because the chronograph experience of Lange is really amazing.
The Dato Up & Down is really a great piece with the perfect triangle which was preserved. The larger size gives it a more slender style than the original version.
So, yes, Datograph for me!
Don't hesitate to come post your pics once you find your new baby!

First Lange - Datograph or Zeitwerk?
Okay guys time to graduate to Lange. Have/had AP's, Patek's, blah, blah, blah...and want to start into the dark (bright) side of ALS. I'm torn (and I know easy answer is both--and agree I will ultimately) between Zeitwerk 140.029 (WG) or Dato Up/Down 405....

Beautiful...
Dato! Wow that looks great. I appreciate the feedback and pic...making things hard already.
My 2 cents
First of all, allow me to give the requisite pre-congratulations on choosing one of the sweetest Langes offered in either the Dato or Zw. If you are after a real opinion, I will say that I had a simialr dilemma recently.. and I stuck to the watch that had...
It must be a very special feeling to have this watch on your wrist Colton
Congratz again :) Cheers, Mark
Well, I've tried both...
and loved them both :) I really like the new Dato U/D as it has a little modern touch, a cleaner dial (but not feeling "empty"), the oversized date and the pushers' activation feeling. The only problem with my thin wrist is a problem of comfort. The Zeitw...
Comments...
Thank you for the reply Mark. You comment on fun vs more traditional is interesting. I'm s sports watch kinda guy, so the natural choice is Zeitwerk. I wear a lot of short sleeve more casual wear, so that watch fits that mode. HOWEVER, the Dato U/D dial i...
You already know what I think my friend!
For me the original Dato is perfect but if you must have larger then get the Up Down. The dial on the original is perfect and it makes a great watch to pair with WG ZW. Knowing you for years as I do you will get both so congrats on both now a matter of wh...
I faced a similar dilemma!
However, I was trying to chose between WG Zeitwerk and Langematik perpetual; surprisingly I ended up getting a Platin Dato up and down which was spur of a moment decision ( take it or leave it kind of a thing). In the end, I couldn't be happier with my ac...
Good feedback...
Thank you abe for the comments and feedback on comfort and design. Think I'm leaning Dato first, Zeit second. More pics when you can (fresh are always better...). Congrats again on the Dato!
There is no wrong decision here as you know..........
Go with your gut, but my choice would be the Datograph. I just like the look of it a tad better. Good luck!!! Tony
go for the zeitwerk
Really jealous that you can afford any one of this watches, just a joke. great that you can. I would go for the zeitwerk for the mechanism, that it. Also is amazing that the minutes goe by exactly when 60 seconds hand goes throught the spot.
Agree...
I think you are probably right...it's just so perfect in so many different ways! Thank you for the feedback.
And my answer is...
DATO Up/Down! Just so perfect in so many way for my needs. Zeit will be next. So now the hunt begins...hopefully will have an incoming soon gentlemen. Thank you all for the feedback. Cheers
I would go Datograph.
I love both pieces, but I think that would be my first choice. If we were talking about the Zeitwerk Luminous, then I would change my mind in favor of it. :) Whatever you choose, you can't go wrong, both are exceptional timepieces. Good luck. Vte
Yes...
Can't argue with that--I too would jump on the Phantom! BUT, back to reality of pieces available....:-)
Zeitwerk
I love the Datograph, but I think the Zeitwerk is way more amazing. I love the digital like display and the movement is equally amazing to look at.
