I am inclined towards the ZW

with the caveat that its not a good watch to wear on a frequent basis: I can only speak for myself, but I am 6'4 with biggish wrists and found it uncomfortable for pro-longed wear of more than a few hours. The 1815 chrono, however, is a beautiful and eminently wearable piece with a stunning movement to boot.
That said, since the current model (ref. 140.xxx) is being phased-out, I bet a replacement is on the way that will reflect what they did with the ZW date (think longer power reserve, thinner watch, and a slightly smoother crown to wind). If you are willing to wait, the wait may be worth it. That said, seeing your current lineup of Langes, I think the itch for a Lange chrono would be too difficult to resist in the long term and you may end up going that route after all. For better or worse, there is no such thing as "just one more watch and I am done" in this passion of ours.
All the best with your decision and do keep us posted!

Walid
