A. Lange & Söhne

When I first saw the 1815 HG and the 1815 Boutique Chronograph in Dubai Boutique. Both pieces were for celebrating 200th Anniversary of FA Lange. I got the 1815 HG after missing the one in Dubai but the boutique chronograph has always been haunting me. Ma...

‘Movement jungle.’ So true!

... all there to make a Purist happy 😀. Big congrats to your latest addition!

I just love the porcelain white/blue dial, although both the RG/WG + Black dial are very stunning looking too. Thank you very much.

From 2018: ...  

They have the “look” of a Dato. I’ve tried them all...all good but can only have one 😉 ...  

The movement and and overall appeal puts it in a class of its own. Congratulations!

it’s just so much pleasure to look at Lange. Congrats to your nice RG version too. Thank you.

Do my eyes deceive me? Your case appears to be white/grey gold. I'm not an expert in 1815 Chrono variations. Previously I've only seen panda dials in rose/yellow cases. Did I miss something? Best, Robert

Mine is the rose gold with panda dial, though it does appear white in this picture!

I’ve always liked the solidness and class of the Lange over the expressive nature of some of the other brands you’ve shortlisted. This one is just beautiful! Congratulations!

The blue changes color to black under some angles and when it’s bright, the white dial pops, very glad to have this version.

why should u care what others say?! u pay for it so whatever u like. Plus, its exquisite. Congrats and enjoy

I’m just quoting some blogs and honestly don’t care that’s why the decision. I could have buy a famous Dufourgraph but I’m just not into the hype...it would be still ok and looks stunning with a Dato but I go with what I like. Thank you Jim

...I recently bought an 1815 Up/Down, and desperately tried to justify the 1815 Chrono but it would have meant basically liquidating half my collection so couldn’t justify it, but it’s a spectacular watch. Wear in good health

it also took me very, very long before taking this plunge and finally convinced myself if eventually this is what I want, bite the bullet and enjoy it sooner. Thank you and wear yours in good health too.

Great choice. Another one bites the dust.

Another 2 bites the dust? Thanks Padj....I'm still loyal

Many congrats and I hope that the longer hunt made this even sweeter! Superb chrono-trio and may i say the 1815 is my favorite ! best regards

It's a feeling of happiness and relief?? The build quality and pusher feel is definitely top or equivalent to the PP and better than the VC. Cheers...hopefully eagle lands in tranquility land soon

you have already landed!! best regards

are not mine, just trying them out to see which one fits me. On the other hand, when two other Apollos landed.....

It looks right on your wrist and the movement is tops in my opinion compared to the other two very terrific choices in your pictures. I too love the 1815 chrono current version. It’s a gem and under appreciated.

We are smart and know this model offers great value Enjoy yours too!

The discrete yet fun colour scheme on this one is very special and the movement is top. Well done

I just like boutique or special editions. Thank you VinnieD.

Simple, clean, understated excellence. You did very well, Raymond! Best, Daniel

Congrats to you too and Thank you, Daniel!

The choice between CdV and your Lange is just down to taste: I went for the flowing lines of the VC but I equally admire the perfectly proportioned and excuisitely executed Lange. Both watches are in the top leage, front side and back. Wishing you many wo... 

just personal preference as you mentioned. Both are respectable brands with great heritage, quality. Enjoy yours in the best of health too.

I'm always in the background considering a high end manual chrono, which I hope to add to the collection one day. The 1815 is very high in the ranking if not at the top, and your watch is a very special edition with a beautiful dial, so what else? 😉 Enjoy... 

The 1815 has gained lots of praise in terms of value, and I totally agreed. Thank you 1WatchMan....watch will be stick to my wrist for quite a long while.

This one fits me more than the Dato although I can still pull it off when a bigger and taller case. I guessed first impression last? Thank you and hope to meet again.

Looking great 👌🏻

I know how it feels to get the watch of dreams. Strangely the price was not a thing or a bumb on the road for me. The thing for me is there are more timepeaces which are breathtaking. Which to choose? To own a very special watch, from the favorite maison ... 

I know the brands quite well so it's just picking the right choices. What grail watches are you looking at or own for each category or purpose?

Even the simplest watch gets the same attention to details. Hope you get your first ALS soon. Thanks Evan1....it’s been a while since we talked about Rolex 😊

Kill you a second time 😂 ...  

Sorry for coming late to your party. 😉😂🤣 Finally a high end and manual wind chrono in your collection!! Congrats again!

Yes, finally and I’m done with this complication. End game soon 😬. Cheers 🍻

Maybe end game for this month for you. 🤣🤣🤣

even if the term is not used pejoratively.

and chose the chrono over the dato. Congrats!

Absolutely no regrets. Thanks 🙏🏻

I've seen this model in person quite a few times and it's really lovely. Enjoy it my friend!

Yes I'm still enjoying it very much.

As you may know, another popular watch website recently changed its software. As a result of that change, necrothreads now abound there. I'm really careful to look at the original posting date there. But here I was relaxing and letting down my guard ... u...
