A tale of straps: Review of straps paired with the Datograph Perpetual
By: Rhyzen : November 28th, 2021-06:59
What does one do after completing a crazy hunt for a watch? He goes crazy hunting for the perfect strap to pair it with. At least, that's what happened to me in the past month. Lange does a perfect job with its watches, but the default brown strap that ca...

To be honest, the grey has been getting a lot more time on the wrist after a period of switching. Let's see when would the mood switch for the blue!
Thank you Darren!

Grey & Blue Look Nice, Will You Swap the Buckle?

Congratulations on this acquisition. Very nice! I was wondering if or when you will replace the Delugs buckle with a Lange buckle? Below is my 2nd favorite view of my L1. ...
To be honest, I'm still considering.

The watch came with an 18mm deployant, so I would either need to get a 16mm buckle to match the strap, or get a customised strap with 20/18 widths. The straps are currently still mounted with Delugs' buckles, which are decent.
Thank you for sharing, AoS!

I'm sorry that you have the unfortunate experience with Delugs, and I guess I'm fortunate that my own experience with their straps have been favorable.
Thanks so much for this and I love the look

I actually have a 1815 Up/down on order and I am looking at a few straps from Delugs. I have read that you should stick to white gold spring bars with white gold cases. Have you noticed any issues with the steel spring bars? Thanks!
My apologies for the late reply!

From my personal experience, I've never observed any issues with the pairing of stainless steel spring bars with white gold or rose gold watches. This was the combination for my old Saxonia Automatik in rose gold, which held well for the 4 years of owners...
Apprecite the response

I have read that some Langes have Ti insert inside the lug holes to prevent wear. Although, I just use original WG spring bars.
