Hi Teo...
Congrats on your Lange-1. The 101.031 is the ref. number of the watch; RG with black dial and you cant tell the watch´ age by this number. There are 2 numbers visible on the back of the watch: - a case-number engraved into the back-bezel (near the lug at ...
thanks for mr.EHH and mr.Yemits..but still need yr help
Thanks to all of you that already gave me information but i still confuse about my lange 1.The model is 101.031..case number 1388xx and movement number is 288xx.Please someone can help me here. Best RDGS teo
Yes ...
Model (or reference) number is 101.031 Case number is 138 8xx Movement number is 28 8xx My Lange-1 in PT has numbers in the same neighborhood so my guess the watch is from <=2002 approx. If you sent your watch back to Lange and have it serviced, regulated...
dear mr.Edwin
Thanks for your information.My case no.138883...move.no.28879.Its not like you said that case no.=mov.no. + 110000. Something wrong with my Lange 1? Best RDGS teo
No no no ...
Lange cases are produced in batches, so movement numbers and case numbers dont always corolate(sp) ... dont worry. A few LE Lange´s have corolating case- and movement numbers. So dont worry, all is fine. If your watch gains 10 seconds, or more, a day, I ´...

Worst case
G'day, not Edwin, but i´d like to add an aspect or two. In general, there´s nothing in your watch Lange can´t repair. You own a fine mechanical watch, made with pride and by a manufacturer who is proud of his products. Of course any mechanical Lange watch...
Agree ... the more frequent the service intervals, the less costly the repairs.
in general of course; better safe then sorry! I dont have my AD check the WR of my watch on an annual basis ... I am always very careful with my watches when around liquids (and, in general, watch-hostile environments). Edwin
Yes, but there´s a hidden caveat...
Hi Edwin, i can´t refer to Lange Service; but reports from other brands and Service Centers suggest to keep in mind particularly hot and humid regions (but not limited to these) : For a daily wearer, one of the greatest threats is moisture. This doesn´t n...
sad story about Jakarta Indonesia Lange AD
Dear:mr.Edwin,mr.Peter dan whom may concern After i read informations from mr.edwin and mr.peter....i decide to service my Lange 1..so i made a call to Lange AD at my city...BTW..i come from Jakarta - Indonesia(Asia). After i told them that i want service...
I´d guess that´s normal
G'day, i can´t comment on the specific questions (or answers given), but to me it seems Sincere is the sole retailer for Lange in SE Asia and PT Sincere in Jakarta one of the many subsidiaries they have. If such, i wouldn´t be surprised if Sincere is cutt...
Are you sure Peter ...
I didnt know that most AD´s had watchmakers ´qualified´ to work on Lange´s Edwin
In Germany, yes
Hi Edwin, at least that´s the status quo in Germany. Bucherer and Huber (today a subsidiary of Bucherer), Rüschenbeck and Wempe entertain "centralized" and "Lange-qualified" service centers, but also maintain local watchmakers in many of their shops. Oedi...
Thanks ...
do you know if this situation for German Lange AD´s is the same for non-German based AD´s? My AD´s watchmaker isnt trained/authorized to work on Lange´s. He is qualified to do work for Rolex, Breguet and a few others but not Lange. From your description, ...
