cornerstone Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Any one watch in particular? Generally the Lange reps could never sit side by side with the gens, because Lange's have unique movements (which also give them special price tags). But, of course, the Lange reps are beautiful watches in their own right. I have one and love it.
KB Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 I do have one Lange rep I purchased off Reg that is a real beauty but as CS stated you wont find an accurate one. Ken Edit for pic...

cornerstone Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Ken's watch there is a beaut! I have a faux chrono with the black face. Love that watch, but joined the Planet Ocean club for my birthday so that's getting most of the wrist time. The poor Lange is sadly neglected, but on my office desk all the same! For a $45,000 saving I found I could live with the odd detail being off!
KB Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 And you can really play the rich bitch angle and tell everyone the Lange on your desk is a $45,000 paperweight Ken
cornerstone Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 And you can really play the rich bitch angle and tell everyone the Lange on your desk is a $45,000 paperweight Ken Strictly-speaking the watch is buried under the pile of paper, which means I have a $2 watch weight... ...but hang on, if I put the watch at the top of the pile....this might work!!
NaviChief Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Here are mine, the gold is more accurate but still not right. It is my favorite of all my watches and I will look for ANY excuse to wear it......gen Lange's are simply beautiful.
cornerstone Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 You're right - that gold one is especially nice!
OiRogers Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 As a person who doesn't wear gold I can't say that I agree with cornerstone... That tourby is very visually appealing to me... which model is that?... does the tourby spin?...

That tourby is very visually appealing to me... which model is that?... does the tourby spin?... It is based on the Pour le Merite Tourbillon, but the moonphase is fantasy. It isn't really a tourbillon, just the balance wheel. It is still very fun to watch and gets plenty of wristtime.
Physher007 Posted October 29, 2006 Report Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) I am looking at getting that same gold moonphase, the one based on Langematik Perpetual ref. no: 310.025. I'll see if I can get a picture for you. And do you mind if I ask where you got that watch? I haven't been able to find one in gold. How does it run? Edited October 29, 2006 by Physher007
NaviChief Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Unfortunetly you won't find a rep with the dials spaced like the gen because of Lange's unique movements. I got my gold one from a friend in China. I saw the same one on ioffer once before. There are some differences with the movement (sorry no Chinese made perpetual calenders yet!). The 6 oclock dial is a 24 hour dial and not seconds (there is no seconds hand on the watch). Also, the month dial is doing a 31 day sweep so it has to be manually advanced every week or so to keep it on the correct month. On visual expection none of that matters though, just an extra inconvenience. I still love it. Here is a wrist shot.
