Is this a problem?
By: Jack99 : April 18th, 2019-23:39
I’ve a Lange 1 that’s less than a year old and I’ve noticed a mark near the window of the calendar date. I brought it to the boutique and was told this is a human error. Shocking to hear for a $50k sgd rrp watch. I’ve read bad reviews on servicing done by...

which if the metal is plated, could be a delayed reaction, explaining why it wasn’t present at the time of purchase – assuming you’ve somehow simply not noticed it until now. No matter, it needs resolved whilst still within warranty. If you have no confid...

Thanks for the replies! I’ve sent it. I was told it’ll take months to repair as they will need to send it back to Germany. They’re confirming on timelines now. Depending on the timeline, I might just hold it for another year and bring it in a month before...
Absolutely unacceptable
By: icecube4000 : April 19th, 2019-23:20
It does seem like corrosion as you didn’t notice it over the 1-year period. I am really surprised that it has happened to a watch in a year. Was the watch exposed to moisture/water for extended periods of time? I also have a Lange 1 which was bought five ...
