And having seen other 1815s in the flesh, I know that your pictures (no matter how good!!) can never really bring out how the painted numerals and text just pop out, like a dollop of paint perfectly touched onto the dial. I just love it.

Lange 1815 Chrono

This is perhaps my favourite serially produced chronograph offered by the current market. It’s the 1815 Chrono Boutique Edition. I prefer it over the Datograph Up/Down due to its smaller size and absence of date windows. But that of course is just my pers...  

Thanks a lot🙏🏻 [nt]

It’s a strap from Jean Rousseau.

and those who know me will know I am pretty critical about how a watch should not be too large for the wrist! My question for you though is do you find the watch heavy? I ask because I once owned the 1815 chrono in rose gold and had to sell it within 3 we...  

Glad to hear that... 🙏🏻

It is indeed a heavy watch by all measures. However I tend to find the weight that a heavy watch exerts on the wrist rather soothing. I once tried on a first generation datograph with its original platinum bracelet and quite enjoyed it... On the other han...  

Thank you!

This watch just gets better and better for me...

I always loved the blue because it changes its hue so much in different lights. However your first pic shows that even the white dial can play tricks... It looks almost silver... I've been blown away by this version. How one brand produced the Dato AND th... 

Thank you Imran!

The dial indeed changes its colour rather noticeably under different lightings... The blue becomes most pronounced under direct sunlight. Here is another photo... ...

One of my favorites by Lange.

Thank you sir!

 
 By: leftpain2 : March 13th, 2019-10:29
I have followed your Instagram account for quite some time, but I don’t recall any Lange posts. Do you have any Langes in your collection? Best, Z

Thank you, Z.

I used to own a grand Lange 1.

Thanks a lot.

I thought the orange/brown colour would complement the cool toned dial.

excellent strap choice

On my list of Chrono acquisitions

You have an awesome one, Leftpain2.

Your Boutique is the stylish gorgeus Vs The Black dial white gold is the dark handsome. I have been perplexed by them.

Thanks Gelato Monster...

I’m in fact also considering acquiring a pink gold 1st generation model with black dial and contrasting white subdials.

Dial is gorgeous AF...
