Yes, these have an interesting dial composition
What is not often spoken about is their use of ceramic for parts of their dials, with them being laser etched. A very cool new technology. Also, Lang & Heyne buy blocks of black enamel that they cut section out of, to create dials. This was a revelation when I visited back
In Dec. 2023. Essentially using laser to cut out a dial from the block of French enamel with supreme precision. Black grand Feu enamel being the hardest to make in an acceptable in a watch dial, when made the traditional way.
A clever use of modern technology in today’s L&H arsenal.
Cheers!
Another look at Lang & Heyne collection . . .
Still quite tempted by the Georg: What is there not to like! And then, it was the Friedrich III’s: Absolutely love these Cathedral hands: Not the best look at the engine room with the plastic: This blue is absolutely stunning: But I prefer the Cathedral h...
Very few wrists can wear the Georg
But yours can. Consider that a blessing. There's no more beautiful form watch in the world. Both are well decorated, but I'd give Georg the edge on the basis of the extraordinary movement architecture. Best Regards, Tim
LOL! Not a blessing for my bank account, Tim!
It’s probably the third or fourth time I’ve looked at it!l I loved how they want the extra mile to also shape the case to improve how it hugs the wrist: It’s on the edge of being too big; but I can make exceptions in this case!😉 ...
Listen to Tim, he knows what he’s talking about.
And he kinda said the same thing I was saying to you yesterday. The reason I’ve loved this watch and have been looking at it now for almost 8 years is the movement. There is nothing (in a similar style) that makes an impression like this one. And it’s the...
LOL! I’ve lost count of how many reviews I’ve watched by Tim!
I do love it! But you not helping my bank account! I thought you were a nice guy!😆
A hard choice since all of them are so beautiful. But,
the Goerg??? Especially if a rectangle would be new to you. And it is so nice to look at. I like it slightly over the Friedrich III. But that dial on the Friedrich III (It looks like sillver friction?? ) and cathedral hands are so tempting. Maybe get both...
A rectangular case would be new to my collection, Ron!
Perhaps, both can make it one if these days!🤞
Definitely a signature but also polarizing feature of this brand!
Fortunately, it’s not an issue for me! Great to meet you!🥂
The Georg is absolutely stunning...
You wear it well. And cathedral hands is a must 😀
They are all fantastic
But I’ll always prefer round watches. Yes I have a parmigiani Ionica but that’s because I really wa ted this watch for what it is. The unbeatable level of finishing ( dial, case and movement) for a ridiculously cheap price ( at least in today’s market) Bu...
Mach, you must be having quite a lot of fun visiting the ADs and trying on stuff!
The Georg is thick and visually looks large. I opted for the cathedral hands on the F-III as the pike hands make the watch too modern ...
I love all of them and glad I don't have to worry about choosing.
I just can't convince my wife to get a second job.
For me, the Georg is a very very special time only
The movement architecture is hypnotic. Once you look it's hard to turn the watch back around😊 But everything about it is beautiful. Tried one on at Cellini here in NYC.
Yes! They call themselves a destination store
because of their inventory. Always love going there.
If I could pull it off
I’d get the Georg certainly. I have the Friedrich III in rose gold with cathedral hands and it is beautiful there is no denying that but Georg, its sculpted and shaped case, the unbelievable caliber, it is just something else. Heck I’m thinking of buying ...
Yeah hopefully one day. It is the watch that started this watch journey for me.
I just looked at that caliber and fell in love with watchmaking. I just moved to a new city, thanks to your post I just checked and realized there is an AD here who sells L&H, will go and see if they have a Georg.
I can attest the Georg being a brilliant watch.
Having championed Marco’s work since 2003 in the US, I’m very familiar with his watches and him. Personally have owned a Johann initially, as the FIII wasn’t yet created when I got that piece. Since then, in 2017 when he showed the Georg in Baselworld, I ...
Some pics of several Friedrich III models to enjoy 😉
Mach, Either way you choose, you’ll be very happy! Cheers, Tim ...
The Georg is one of my favorite designs, haven't been able to try one on yet though
A few friends love them, others have said it feels like wearing an ingot on the wrist. So I'd like to try one out first before committing to a custom piece. My favorite ones are the batch done for a korean retailer. Very funky! ...
