An overdue GTG
This past week I traveled to the Western coast of Canada for meetings. Besides escaping the concrete jungle and enjoying the refreshing perspective one gets when working in Vancouver, it gave me the chance to meet another passionate Lange enthusiast whom I had missed connecting with when visiting earlier this year.
In meeting for a drink along the waterfront, I was finally able to get some wrist-time with the original Dato.. and I came away with overwhelmingly positive feelings.
The conversation was great, and it's nice to hear how interconnected members of the forum are. Hopefully in the future when I get back to the coast we can coax some other North-Western US based members to join us for a larger gathering 
A few pictures of the meetup.. I think the Zeitwerk and Dato make a formidable duo!
Would not be hard having this as a view from the office
The flight made all the better wearing my digital companion,
Digital and Classic; WG and PT
Gratuitous movement shots
And finally, on my wrist!
I particularly enjoyed the dark brown strap, a Camille Fournet with deployant.. the quality in the leather was wonderful.
A final parting shot before returning home in the morning, hope to be back soon!
Have a great start to your week,
Colton

These GTG are always superb moments!
So ready to get a Datograph now? Thanks for the report! Fx
That all but sealed my intentions..
However intentions are far from a final decision ;) I am building up the watch fund, but it will be a while before I can think of acquiring. I agree with you, getting to meet others on the forum and sharing in our passion for Lange can't be beat. Best, Co...
Well done for the Datograph, Colton. An iconic piece. I said it thousand times
But it is wat I feel about that chronograph, the first version, of course. Superb. Really superb. Best, Nicolas
Superb photos
You have great taste from one Canadian Lange enthusiast to another. The original Dato is one of my favourite Lange's along with the RL 3 hand and PLM. Best, Edward
Nice pics!
Thanks for sharing Colton and glad you enjoyed the Lange gtg A fantastic pair indeed. I agree the Dato looks good on brown strap too Cheers Robin
Drool worthy watches..
I m starting to lust after the zeitwerk!!! It's so unique dial side and movement is simply awesome..
That zeitwerk always captivates! And vancouver has to have the most heavenly
setting of any city I've been to. I love the zeitwerk with the sea and the island in the back! May be time to get out to BC!
