No Lange today, but at least also made in Glashütte

Thanks. I am still looking for a Lange 1.

Could not decide beetween the Darth, the Platinum Moonphase or luminous first generation. Your night owl is also very appealing.

They are all nice. I to had some difficulties in deciding.

But I must confess that this is the first time I hear (read) the nickname night owl.
