montydog Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Hi peeps, Here's my 1st pictures of my 1st rep watch. I've got a lot to learn but I just had to put some up! Thanks for looking Alan
Usil Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 I like the looks of that watch. Wear it well. Usil
cornerstone Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Can't tell you how much I love this watch Doesn't get much wrist time though, the Railmaster is a cruel mistress
dluddy Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Can't tell you how much I love this watch Doesn't get much wrist time though, the Railmaster is a cruel mistress I have the same problem but I too, love this watch
fallraen Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 what is the movement used for this watch? also, what are the flaws on this piece?
cornerstone Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 what is the movement used for this watch? also, what are the flaws on this piece? Flaws are as long as your arm. Lange's like this have unique movements, they're fundamentally 'unreppable'. Main thing with this is the location of the sub-dials. I think the gen is much thinner too. But what really counts is that this is a stunning watch, at a substantial discount!
montydog Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Posted March 21, 2007 what is the movement used for this watch? also, what are the flaws on this piece? The movement is the lemania manual. By flaws, if you mean how does it differ from the genuine article, well here goes: $36,300 vs $228 (plus shipping) Case diameter is 39.5 on the rep & 39 on the gen Case thickness is 10 on the rep & 10.8 on the gen The tops of the subdials should be just about level with the bottom of the 9 & 3 on the face instead of half way down the face. As posted above this is because the movement is unique to A Lange & Sohn and is impossible to copy with a standard rep movement The hands should be a lighter shade of blue I'm sure there are others flaws but these are the main ones. The original is here: It's a lovely watch despite the inaccuracies and no one who sees it know what the original looks like as It's a rare watch
elprimerozen Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 I think we have a winner here with a beautyfull classic watch!Nice wear it well!
fallraen Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 damn that is a nice piece. you are right... not many people would know what it actually looks like perhaps the AD guy but otherwise, great watch. tempting.
Tekidonc Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Is this the strap which came with the watch?
chubbchubb Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Monty... that's a very nice watch and.... a great way to loose your "virginity"... welcome to the club... This Lange is a very classy watch and the chances of bumping into anyone who knows the real deal are zilch as Lange is definitely not for the masses...
Pix Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 I love that L&S too ! My Patek belong to the same "look" family, and I wouldn't be surprized they come from the same manufacturer, as this Breguet also And the back of all these is as beautiful as the front ! Blue hands are always most classy. Wear it well ! By the way, someone to explain the relation between L&S and gGassh

who Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 i don't know too much about this watch but damn....she look so upper class and upscale to me.
jeff g Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 Bump. Very beautiful. Not a bad choice for a 1st rep. The black dial version has always been on my list. Could be next. Wear it well.
eunomians Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 That is indeed a fine looking watch. I really like those A. Lange & Sohne watches. Enjoy!
montydog Posted March 26, 2007 Author Report Posted March 26, 2007 Is this the strap which came with the watch? Hi Tekidonc, Yes it's the strap that came with the watch. Nice quality thick leather with the maker's name stamped on the inside.
