I havent been able to find the price, except for the rose gold/blue dial variant (€50.300).
So, should we expect the pt/onyx variant to be priced around 60k?
My main doubt concerns the glossy aspect of the onyx, which probably makes the watch look like a "tuxedo watch". I think the original "Darth" would be more to my liking for that reason.
As for the rose gold/blue variant, I simply don't understand why the date is black on white discs: wouldn't white on blue discs make much more sense (and be much more harmonious)?
Celebrating 30 years of Lange 1
...with my cherished Lange 1 Luminous 😍 Today, 24th October 1994 Lange launched the first Lange 1 and today celebrates the milestone with new iterations of the classic: monochrome-watches.com ...
The 30th anniversary model didn’t excite me
Not sure why but it felt a little uninspiring. Also onyx is relatively inexpensive and this is a very very expensive Lange 1. Grey market prices for Lange is down and Lange 1s can be bought for 50c on the dollar. Totally does not interest me at all. Berne...

Prices in USD are...
... on the spreadsheet at https://goo.gl/vWFC7Q : $53,800 181.062 (little onyx) $46,200 181.063 (little blue) $57,400 191.062 (regular onyx) $50,200 191.063 (regular blue)
+1 As far as we get to know the price. I cannot stand this upon request bullshit. No price transparency. The can charge whatever they want based
on your face and origin. Patek at least nowadays displays all its prices even those of their multimillion pieces.
This should make you feel better: I received a mass-distributed email today from Lange today with the prices prominently displayed.
Lange boutiques are no different from other brand boutiques. They have fixed price lists. So it is false to say that Lange charges "whatever they want based upon your face and orgin" unless you're talking about the "face and origin" of the watch , not the...
😁 Glad that they quoted prices for the four releases. Upon release on some famous watch news websites, they did not have any for the platinum models. I did not say that ALS or any other brand preferring to put POA or price upon request
applies variable pricing. I see it as a risk and it remembers me the price your a quoted on some bazars after you were asked where are you coming from, had been scrutinized from head to toe 😅. As we all know the concept of yield management commonly used i...
The cost
Has never really been about the materials, moreso manufacturered scarcity. If the onyx provides a unique effect, then that manufactured scarcity is definitely there - but it doesn't look all the different from a regular black dial at least from the photos...
Just to clarify on one point
I’ve seen the actual watch in person. So my comments are basis that. Best Gatsby
Thanks for this clarification.
Would you say this new onyx “Darth” looks like a tuxedo watch? I mean glossy dial and very formal look?
Yes it does I guess.
But so does a Santos Dumont black dial. Way too expensive for this stuff Best Gatsby
Such a good reference you've got.
MIGHT be my favorite Lange 1 (there's some pretty serious competition but this one is hard to beat)
I’m also celebrating with these trio 🙌🏻🎉
Also, this might be a shocking news because I just found out Lange US website is doing online retail! The new Lange 1 RG Blue dial is available for pre-order and other 12 models. This is very interesting. ...
Beautiful watch, jpd! Enjoy.
Happy 30th birthday to the Lange 1 - a masterpiece. I am celebrating with this one: ...
Many thanks Aviya.
You have a wonderful one and it's a great shot: love how the blue of the moon disc pops 👍
