Independents: The triple split is a different beast

Much more subtle than the LM Sequential. A split hour may not be indispensable maybe but the hour register is often useful and the triple split is the only Lange chronograph to have it. I ended up wearing the LM Sequential much more than the TS but it is a comfort / perceived ruggedness / purely per

Independents: I love this watch, but it is in Zirconium, not Titanium

Regardless of the material, this watch is phenomenal and well deserved to win the GPHG last year.

Independents: Was a pleasure

and I am sorry I couldn't give you any conclusive hint, but as said this is a very personal choice and the good thing is that there is no bad choice!

Independents: I own the EVO

in green, and fortunate to own the sequential (in orange) too. They are among the handful of my favorite watches of all times. I will tell you why I got the EVO and why yours might be a better choice from some viewpoints: 1. The EVOs look badass, few watch combine killer futuristic-sporty look, tech

Horological Meandering: I use exactly the same technique and similar-sized boxes!

How do you store papers? And small accessory parts? (i.e. extra links)

Horological Meandering: I see, anyway according to your information every Lange post-2004 with a case greater than or equal to the size of a Lange 1 should have it

Then I guess I need to check again my Langes: all of them are larger and (except from one) all of them are post-2004 yet I haven't noticed these sleeves. I might have missed them because all the watches were white metals and I was looking for a (more) contrasting color (I expected them to use brass)

Horological Meandering: Do you know exactly on which models Lange used these bushings?

There is little public knowledge about this detail. I first read about it here: www.fratellowatches.com #gref (so on a 403.035). A friend of mine has noticed the same in a Richard Lange Jumping Seconds (ref 252.025). I have inspected few Lange in platinum, both old and modern, small and larg

A. Lange & Söhne: I agree, yet...

... the glittery strap is really a unique characteristic of this watch and it’s a pity to swap it. If you are looking for something less feminine yet still delicate and poetic you could consider the Emil Lange 1815 Moonphase 231.031 and 231.035 as suggested by CR, that are definitely masterpieces.

A. Lange & Söhne: it was a pleasure!

now I am wondering whether I like the new triple split more or less than the original one original watch is austere and technical the new one is more romantic and luxurious, the new dial is deep teal, not blue!
