I'm another ambivalent HG owner. I like many of Lange's HG combinations -- your watch, the HG metal with a nice eggshell dial, etc. However, the metal itself never quite did it for me. I kept the HG 1815 Moonphase below, which I like, but sold the HG Lange 1 Tourbillon (which was literally the only watch I ever bought that I never wore -- it sat for nearly 10 years with the original hang tags still attached to the strap).
