Lange & Sohne Grande Lange One, Moonphase and Zeitwek Lumen series.

Which one do you prefer? I have a clear winner ( pun intended, here ): The Lange One Moon Phase, because I think that the luminous moon is spot on. Now, there was a fourth one which should have been mentioned, the Datograph. Because its lumen dial saves t...
Zeitwerk

My favorite is the Zeitwerk because the lumen concept was conceived for the Zeitwerk to charge the lume and be able to read the time in the dark. But agree with you on that spectacular moon phase!
Another vote for the Lange 1 Moonphase....

.... which significantly eclipsed (no pun intended) the Lange 1 Lumen. I like the Lumen series and is a fan of the Datograph, but somehow the Datograph Lumen doesn't cut it for me.

The Lange 1 models, followed by the Dato and then the Zeitwerk

I do not care for a moon phase at all and the Zeitwerk is too hectic in appearance.
All are gorgeous 😍 and I'd love one of each

but there is only one that actually needs the semi transparent Lumen dial to function and that is the Zeitwerk - without the semi transparent dial reading the time at night would be impossible. The other pieces are beautiful but none actually need the Lum...
Good point, Russell. I wonder how long the charge lasts?

Lange's luminous features tend to dim quickly. I am curious how long the luminous charge lasts on the ZW Phantom during typical use, when the wearer does not deliberately charge it up by putting it near a bright light. Is the time readable a few hours aft...
I'm in the minority ...

but I actually prefer the regular matte black versions of all three compared to the lumen versions. Lume is cool, but for me the classic matte black dials convey a sense of serenity which is lost in the semi transparent ones with all the semi visible inte...
