Thanks to all!
Thank you all for your insightful responses. Indeed the watch I saw was in Boston while I was there for a family wedding. I wouldn't expect to see a watch that beautiful in Toronto Canada.
Unlike senort75 I did bug the salesman but didn't get as far as box and papers.
Henry you are one lucky watchowner to have this in your collection.
CR you are quite right, the watch in question has vertical stripes in addition to the guilloched circles.
Would any of you know what the real world value of this piece be in terms of new (at the time in 2003) vs. private used (today) vs. the retail and thus marked up value of big-box retailer like the one in Boston? I am new to AL&S and wouldn't know if the $25K price tag is reasonable or not?
Thanks,
GB

Does it have vertical pinstripes?

The Lange 1A has concentric rings (guilloche) inside seconds track and inside the hour/minute track, and also larger concentric rings around the rest of the dial. It's the same pattern that Lange uses in the standard production mother-of-pearl guilloche m...
