I’ve always liked the watch as a variation, but not this model: HoneyGold standards seem to me to be slipping. I much prefer to see it used just on Lange’s really special pieces rather than the HoneyGold itself being the only special element.
I noticed it is an earlier movement number (vs. the case number) in this prototype example. As I did with the recent, thinner Grand Lange 1, I wonder if there may some L021.1 movements in storage needing to be cleared through.
