my review on Odysseus

Jul 08, 2020,08:24 AM

I visited my L&S Boutique today and had the pleasure to discover the 2 ODYSSEUS versions (prototypes).

I like both, much more than expected, after internet reviews.

First of all the steel version has a nice blue dial and the texture is sporty at look.

Many had discussed about the steel bracelet. In fact it is very comfortable on wrist. The only con is the look is quite large where linked to the case.

I could play with the 2 pushers. They are firm, not smooth as for Datograph.

I also had a look at the date change which is training from 23h42 to 0h12.

See photos.

Second the WG version. I prefer this version and the specific strap is very nice and the stitch color is perfect for an elegant sport watch.

The dial is more refined IMHO and very L&S.

If I like this new model, I regret that L&S had written “AUTOMATIC” on the dial and I should prefer an instantaneous date/day change.

Congratulations to L&S and their teams for this experience.

Interesting, thanks for your post. I would not have expected the wg model to have a more "refined" dial. Thank you for your thoughts! [nt]

I have to say that I am smitten with the gold version. I would like to compare it with say a Naulitus for feel etc. I suspect this will be a more “robust” watch with heft? [nt]

As a Lange Affection at all I really want to like this but it still does nothing for me. I sought in the metal at a boutique. However, I will say that I like the steel version much better than the new white gold version [nt]

Great to be able to compare the models

When they receive a real piece, the lucky owner arrives soon and bring it ASAP.

I believe the UK Boutique has a ‘Real’ model in stock that isn’t for sale and is simply to show clients.

In fact, no difference except the fact that the mecanism is blocked.

Thanks for your interesting comments!

Dear FX, wait for reading your review. As Steel Odysseus owner it should be of very high interest. [nt]

What do you think if on the PP Nautilus 5711, "Automatic" was written on the dial? Still a winner LOL [nt]
