With an esteemed nod to Tony.
I was at the Manufactory when the Richard Lange (232.032) was first being produced - I saw a tray of six of them, mint fresh. The 1815 three-hander (235.032) in 38.5mm - my very first Lange, and love, was the original 1815 in 36.5mm. The Lange 1 (192.032) - with its continuously-driven Moon Phase and day / night indication that add a little extra dynamism and pop. And the current version of the 1815 Up / Down (234.032) - the last Lange I would ever part with.
Curiously, all four present case-makers for Lange are represented in my family. The typography of each engraving is slightly different.
Enjoy, aviya.

I noted the differences in the engravings too, but great to see all at once.
The SUG markings look the best. They're so clear.
True. If I had to choose one, I actually prefer Efteor's - their typography is kind of "fat" in a way that I find pleasing.
For the information of others in the forum, the four present case-makers for Lange Uhren are: Centror/Audemars Piguet (CO), Efteor (FT), Donzé-Baume (db) and Sachsishe Uhrentechnologie GmbH Glashutte (SUG).
Wonderful quartet!
Gorgeous ALS family you have there! The RL is so classy and technically marvelous! You know how I feel about the L1 MP....and the 1815 family is lovely...the up/down is so versatile in my opinion and would be a great candidate for multiple different strap...
Thank you, dimardi.
Yes, the RL is technically marvellous with its tensioned split-wheel centre-seconds bridge (picture attached, credit: Lange Uhren, The Yearbook, 2006). The Lange 1 MP - either generation - is a winner. But the 1815 family is the apple of my eye. Best wish...
The RL
Is my most enjoyed over the years I would reckon. The buttery smooth sweep of the elegant second hand catches me every time. Exceptional collection you have curated, thanks for sharing Colton
This is a beautiful collection.
Love that they are all in yellow/rose gold. Must be loads of precious memories
Thanks, K-Lo!
I had a gen. 1 Dato in PG - though I had little choice at the time, my one regret is selling it... I've never had a ZW - would go for the Date or the model that Christan just acquired in our forum.
