I wonder if we'll see this in another metal, like white gold, but not limited.

That seems to be what often happens.
I hope to see this in person sometime. I liked the Odysseus Datomatic more in person than in the photos.
I'm also curious how "big" it wears. The Odysseus Chronograph is 42.5mm x 14.2mm. Datograph Up/Down is 41.0mm x 13.1mm, and original Dato is 39.0mm x 12.8mm. So this new Odysseus is not a small watch!
Lastly, I look forward to seeing a video of exactly how the chronograph hands behave when they're resetting. Will the chrono second hand really spin around dozens of times? I wanna see that!

These watches actually take a really long time to make. The movement is made by one master craftsman. It's not like an assembly line process which is employed at Vacheron Constantin, Patek Philippe, etc. Many of their chronographs are made in an assembly ...

I can only wonder as well.
Well said, Sir,

Though if I may add: I think that not everything is done entirely by one watchmaker. For example let's take the Tourbograph. The chronograph part is assembled by one watchmaker, then the calendar module is by another and tourbillon is by another, etc. Am ...
You might be the bigger Lange expert!

I've only been to the factory three times, I think you've been many times more. So you might be the bigger expert here. I'm not sure about the case for the Tourbograph, but many models, probably even most models, are one craftsman produced. This is mainly...
I'm not a fan of the Odysseus personally.

But hey, some people really like it! Good for them! The Chairman of Richemont, Mr. Rupert, really likes his Odysseus, the last I heard, it's probably his daily wearer.
