Thanks
For all the feedback, I understand the concerns about 'non' original, but not an issue for me, but as I say I understand and agree maybe Lange should have got in touch pre dial repair if indeed it is a differant style. If however all DP's will have this dial going forward then totally understandable to 'update' it, as I said it will be interesting to see what dial any new DP's will be wearing
No offennse taken Moritz, valid points & opinions as from amerix also
Cheers
Datograph perpetual change of dial
Posted a while back that I was daft enough to drop my ALS DP onto a marble floor from wrist height, suffice to say quite upset obviously with myself. Watch wouldnt wind so back to Lange it went. Have to say first rate people to deal with...my watch needed...
Looking sharp with the new dial....
I absolutely adore the new dial! Very sharp & most definitely a pleaser to the eyes. Enjoy.
There's certainly a difference...
...unless there's some trick of the light! On the ALS website, the gallery for the Dato Perp (image 2) show that the subdials have little contrast from the main rhodie dial (PT) - whereas for the WG / grey dial (image 1) the contrast is very obvious! It s...
Awesome Watch...
The new dial is definitely more legible, however having said that I do like the original better.
truly it is
BUT - I prefer first thoughts to after-thoughts - the ones that run their course through all these refining filters - symphonically thinking about Schumann and Bruckner all the way to Karajan. Except for the latter, they had all their well-meaning and mis...
It is very difficult to say if there is a slight change of the dial shine...
Anyway, I'm glad to see that you got back your beautiful Dato Perpetual in a perfect shape ! Ready for long moments of pleasure ! Fr.Xavier PS: I got it: I was more focussed on the main dial than on the subdials... I must confess I prefer the old version....
Well ..this is...
hard one...situation is delicate I think.. because I don't like to impose my visions and views to others so if you are satisfied with it I think that is what's important so I'll hold my pie hole shut about this new subdials... Best Damjan
Thanks Chaps...
I Do much prefer the slightly shinier & darker subdials. You really have to see it in the flesh as they change colour/shade as the watch moves. I must admit I do find the dial slightly 'stark' at times, and I think this slight revision has added a bit mor...
No offesense, mate! What counts is that you like it ...
and if this is the new dial on a P DP than it is all fine that they fitted it into yours. Nobody here will doubt the originality of the dial and the quality of the job done. What I ment is my personal opinion about the repair, the way things went. Same do...

Now short of breath - but completely agree, Moritz :-)

I personally
LOVE the new dial! I've always preferred the WG model due to the contrast....and now this.....I guess I'm back to liking the PT version more!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!
Chris,I remember reading your O/P...........
After the accident with this beautiful piece. And I'm so pleased to read that everything has worked out ok. It just remains to wish you many years of enjoyment, including the one that will occur in 9 days time
