For Your Safety: A Message to All Buyers
- New Seller Notice: If a seller is new to the Collectors Market with less than 200 posts. While everyone starts somewhere, we strongly recommend using a secure payment method like PayPal Goods & Services or a credit card for purchases for buyer protection.
- Critical Security Alert: Established accounts can be compromised. Always request a custom timestamp (a photo of the watch with a note of your choosing) from any seller, regardless of their transaction history. For the highest security, a live video call is the best way to confirm the seller physically has the watch.
If a seller refuses these basic checks or you see any red flags, stop the transaction immediately.
Remember: A real seller with a genuine watch has nothing to hide and will understand your need for caution.

This watch was purchased in Germany in 2007 and has been worn infrequently (I am the second owner). The watch comes with all of the original inner/outer boxes, booklets, and of course, the original warranty card (AD stamped) and other assorted paperwork. The brown leather strap is in excellent condition and the watch has the original Lange 18k buckle. It makes the perfect dress watch being only 7mm thick while the dial design is versatile enough for casual wear. The movement's remarkable finish can only be found in Lange watches and can be viewed through the sapphire crystal back. Original retail was $11,300 (but again, these watches are not readily available in the marketplace).
This model has been discontinued and is rarely offered for sale in such excellent pre-owned condition. In fact, this watch has become a collector's item. I am sorry, but I do not have pictures of the watch at this time. The bezel has some hairline scratches, but otherwise, is in fanastic condition. If you so desire, I can supply you with the name of an amazingly talented watchmaker who can make the watch look like new.
The watch is keeping accurate time and winds/sets beautifully. I'm asking $7,300 plus $50 shipping. Sorry, but I cannot ship internationally. Thanks and feel free to e-mail me at [Email address suppressed for privacy] if any questions.
Best regards,
