Keep in mind Lange does not make the hands.

Or dials, or cases, at least as far as I know. They make movements.
I believe they’ve been pretty open about it.
In my opinion, I think it’s unreasonable to expect the underside of the hands to be “finished.”
Think about how they are made. To be polished on the visible side, they must be held perfectly flat on the opposite side. Then how do you finish the bottom, without scratching the top when you turn it over? The underside of a balance wheel is also rough, even on the best watches, for the same reason. You can’t risk bending hands or balance wheel.
Is this really where we want our watch brands’ attention to be focused? Just a thought.
Cheers,
Brandon
