Yes, Modernahab, I’ve at least tried it on the wrist.

For reference, my wrist is 7.08” (18cm). For me, it was quite similar to the Double Split and Lange 31 when I tried them on: mechanically captivating and gratifyingly heavy - but just too big to wear proportionately and safely (ie. without clanging it int

I'm going to say "both".

A bold and audacious concept (as with the Double / Triple Split, the Zeitwerk...), including the ratchet-key wind. An amazing feat of German engineering - stacking two 6-foot long mainsprings and funnelling all that energy through a remontoire. But mostly

Excellent Analysis 👏 a lot of cons 😄appreciate your honest opinion

I wonder if some of the issues has been solved on v2. On paper it doesn't seem so thick..from when I tried it was thick but can't pin point how the 12.2 mm might appear to be more. On the heavy indeed it is top heavy but can't remember find the exact size

Wow!!! I just looked this up. Congratulations!!

When I saw the two frequency actuator I assumed the 12:00 sub-dial was the PR indicator, but I always roughly thought the beat frequency was directly proportional to the the power reserve; meaning if the watch beats 4X faster, the power reserve would appr

Those are some big, beautiful watches.

I was going to say that the Terraluna is awfully large, but then I saw that you own a Lange 31! Like you, I find most chronographs unappealing. It took me many years to warm up to the Datograph (first generation), which I have come to enjoy. You also ment

Great shots as always! 👍👍

Just the ZW for me ... this is the ONLY Lange that gave me sleepless nights for many years! I do like the concept of Lange 31 ... you need a separate key to wind it --- how cool is that!!! Although, I don't like the current dial layout so much ... hopeful

The Lange 31 is a crazy watch!

I played with them a few times years ago, but I forgot what the winding experience felt like. Pretty cool though. A gigantic piece, both the Lange 31 and the Terraluna (which I always associated with the Lange 31 because I'd see them near each other in th

great insight, I feel less bad about not buying it 😄 I think a dealer I know still has as Lange 31 but the price is still way too much

even with some discount. I am puzzled by ALS decision to shout down most of the distribution. It makes no sense whatsoever to me. Already here in Switzerland ALS and German watches in general were a difficult sell, now only with an apartment to book apoin
