Fantastic report, Colton
What a once in a lifetime experience! You may call me an apostate, but for me the watch I most like from your report is the Saxonia Automatic Outsize Date at the beginning of your report. I know, I am crazy given the amazing watches you have shown... but there is something about it for me. Thanks again!

A Lange Pilgrimage
Visits to the Lange manufactory are not new; I myself first learned of them by viewing the reports posted here by Purists who had been lucky enough to visit and experience the magic firsthand. Viewing the city, the people and most especially the watches t...
A five stars post!
Thanks a lot Colton for your superb report! You managed to catch all the warm welcome by Lange when they organize such visit. I visited the Manufacture several times and these visits will always remain great souvenirs in my mind. Fx
Thank you for your words
It means a lot coming from you, Fx. Your efforts to report on all Lange events here on the PuristS was my driving force to put this together. I am glad you enjoyed it, Best Colton

Many thanks from a fellow Canuck!
I was there in another group and indeed it was a wonderful time. The Lange staff were outstanding. My wife and I had a great time. The group we were with was excellent. I knew a few of them from my Vacheron links. And it was easy to make friends with othe...
Glad to hear it
To my surprise, it seems that Canadians are well represented as collectors of Lange, which I am very happy to hear! I've had the good fortune to meet a couple others in Canada who are passionate about Lange and it has always been fun. If you are in Toront...

Hard to beat a classic
I fully agree with your sentiments on the Saxonia outsize date in platinum. After talking in length with the owner, I found he has several highly complicated pieces in his collection but still prefers the wonderful simplicity of the Saxonia. It's easy to ...

Thanks for an excellent report on the visit and
experience that is ALS. You really captured the experience and presented an accurate and personal account of a few days in Paradise! We had a great time on our tour and the participants became quite a gang by the end of the events. Best to all, Tim
What a fantastic report and
wonderful photos of amazing watches! It seems You had a really great time in Saxony visiting Dresden, Glashütte and the Weesenstein Castle.
Fascinating and well-written....
.... Thumbs up! Goes without saying that the hospitable efforts of the Lange staff are just one of the many attributes that differentiates the brand from its peers.
