The Lange 31 looks ( and is ) enormous! That was the big con for me, when I tried it several times. But I love the concept. As for the Datograph / Langematik perpetual pair, this is such a killing duo. Two champions in their respective category. Thanks for the post, Sascha. Nicolas

Very different layout, though the same DNA. But what is the most interesting is the movements diversity. The Lange 31 article will be very interesting to read. Cheers, Mark

The movement picture Sascha showed is a really superb example of the values of Lange that I love. What I would be interested to see, is the number of models in a range vs the number of different movements used across the range. Lange don't have a HUGE stable of watches, like many other brands. But what I find is that they don't seem to take the easy road, i.e. using just one or two movements across their range. There isn't a weak movement at all at Lange. Thanks for the pics, a great collection.

And so nice of Lange to let you participate ;-)) You are the doctor who went to school near there, correct? You have a wonderful collection of watches which I am sure have special meaning for you. Cheers!

The watch was very important for Lange technically speaking to prepare the Zeitwerk with the constant force constraints but I don't see the point to achieve such power reserve, I mean I don't see what it brings to clients. As a wise man said, so you want an unlimited power reserve? Buy an automatic watch. LOL A very rare bird in the Lange collection what makes it so special. Fx
