This is a beautiful model
and I am also weak in the knees for blued hands. But IMHO this model lacks one key feature of other L1 dials--no applied markers. I have thought about seeking this reference many times, but each time have held back. The "Stealth" is a much preferred look for me, even though usually not with blued hands. (I have handled a friend's Stealth with blued hands, which I believe was by special request to Lange years ago, and that one is quite striking.)
Lange 101.027x Info
I chanced upon it on the Timezone forum. And I have a weakness for blued hands. Would be great if anyone can share additional info, such as the size and the movement etc etc. I did a search on this forum. It seems that only about 600 were ever produced. a...
Thanks Oliver.
Anyway, I am confused. The Lange boutique in Singapore is looking it up for me. Regards, iAn
There has been a lot of speculation...
... over the years, but I've never heard a production number from a reliable source at Lange. I don't know what to believe! 100? 600? Based upon the frequency that they arise for sale on the preowned market, I'd GUESS that more than 100 but far fewer than...
Thanks CR
Interesting info. The blue hands are so beautiful. It's a pity that it is a limited production. You are a lucky man. :) Regards, iAn
FYI
this watch has no limitation and since Lange never releases any production figures its all guessing... The only "indication" is that it was an individual design... like the 101.027 it was basically the "standard" Lange 1, so diameter: 38,5; 365 parts; 53 ...

That's definitely THE key feature...
... that distinguishes the 101.027x from the Stealth. That's actually why I prefer the 101.027x. On certain Lange 1 models, I gravitate towards applied markers. But on this particular model, I like the painted markers. I can't really articulate why -- jus...
Yes! stealthy and also good for precision setting
I also appreciate the painted markers on the 101.027x. Being a bit of an accuracy nut, I tend to synch my minute hand and second hands to the microns: the minute hand passes the precise center of the minute mark when the second hand reaches zero. I have f...

The figures were provided by a very reliable source. Thanks for all the help guys. Regards, iAn
