As the Datograph is not in my collection, onr in the Lange collection anymore, I thought that these 2 pictures of a watch which made me dream, before making me happy for several years, would pay a nice homage to tjhis great watch, revisited now, as announ...

Great pictures, Nico ! You're right, this watch has something special for it, hard to define... I especially appreciate its movement ; it seems as you could dive in it ! I've got the same feeling with the movement of the 1815 chronograph. Amicalement, Did...

From my computer, which would let me much more free space! Thanks for your kind words, Ken. Lange is, like Vacheron, a brand I love a lot. I am a difficult client, for sure, but hey, when you love, you always have exigences. No doubt that there will still...

Dear Nicolas, What a pity you do not own this marvelous piece anymore. I love the pictures. You being French I assume the lighter you have is ST Dupont and not Dunhill or Cartier Wishing you a great 2012! Best Edmond
Thanks, Edmond.

Yes, this is a Dupond. but I also have a Dunhill. I'm not that french! As for the watch, I will take my time, but I will certainly build my Chrono collection, once again. And I didn't loose all, as I still have the box and the papers. Best, Nicolas.
