Lange Datograph first generation. A picture of THE icon.

It is strange how things are going in life...
When I saw the release of the Datograph, I was completely mad about it. I knew I would have one, and 5 or 6 years after, I got mine.
I was very happy with it as I considered ( and still consider ) it as an iconic chronograph.
The only curious thing is that it didn't sit very well on my wrist, but I loved it so much that I didn't really care.
In 2011... Stolen.
And I immediately felt the miss, the cruel absence. I never thought I would let it go...
Anyway, each time I fall on these old pictures of mine, I feel the love for that watch. There are very few watches I like with a date. The Datograph is one of these few exceptions.TheDate is part of the concept.
I would even say it better... without Date, it wouldn't be the same, nor it would be better!
Maybe one day, I will get another one in my collection...
Best,
Nicolas
