Thank you for a great reply
Great to know we share similar opinions. I am not sure whether RG version is discontinued so I shall research it. It was not difficult to find the watch at all as a manager from AD called me himself and proposed it
I love the fact that a lot of parts are decorated by hand, which is quite uncommon nowadays.
1815 Chronograph or the Grail
Hello dear friends! Several days ago I got a message from the AD. It contained a picture of A.Lange und Söhne 1815 Chronograph in RG. Should I mention I forgot about other watches the moment I got it and wired a prepayment within two hours? I suppose it i...
Congratulations.
A beautiful and timeless classic watch. You will, no doubt enjoy it for many years to come.
Congratulations Alex!
This is a lovely watch and as you correctly say the movement is to die for and arguably one of the best finished chronograph movements in the market. I assume and hope you have tried the watch on. I ask because I owned a similar watch for three weeks a fe...
Not heavy
Actually I cannot agree that 1815 chronograph in gold is heavy. Did you try platinum?
Everything is relative I guess
I had owned the 1815 chrono in gold and it was heavy for me. Just like gold Rolex watches with gold bracelets are way too heavy for me. However a platinum Patek is lighter than a gold Lange! Just the difference in the way both brands make their watches. B...
Wow
Today is the first day I wear it. It is comfortable with a pleasant presence on wrist. Your comment is very appreciated and I will pay attention to the weight aspect. "Heavy is reliable"
Enjoy Alex!
And I am sure you will be tempted to wear the watch back to front if at all possible!!
Decided to weight 1815 Chronograph and Jumbo
Actually the chronograph is even lighter than the Jumbo. But Jumbo's case weight is balanced with the weight of a bracelet. So Jumbo feels overall lighter. Maybe buying a clasp for 1815 may increase its comfort. Best, Alex. ...
Congratulations Alexey
I owned this timepiece few years ago and I let it go to finance another Lange. As we say, gone but no forgotten. Enjoy and wear it in the best of your health. Best wishes Alkiro
Congratulations, Alex.
This watch is, as you state, one of the best chronographs one can get. Many people even prefer this to the Datograph because it does NOT have the date, and therefore the movement is slightly slimmer.. Your analysis is, overall, correct-and thorough. Two t...
Thank you
I prefer watches without a date so a simple chronograph is a best choice. Datograph is thicker and more expensive. I mentioned the plate under the balance wheel that is visible As for cotes de Geneve - I completely agree, my mistake)
That you did. Sorry!
I'm surprised, as the plate under my RL balance is decorated. I will have to look a little closer at my other Langes to see if this is the exception.
I shall buy a loupe:)
Thank you! I didn't know how such pattern is called. Can you recommend a source where I can read about techniques of finishing?
Congratulations with this grand timepiece!
I have often wondered if I made the right choice getting the standard 1815 instead of the chronograph... maybe I need to upgrade it Anyway; enjoy your stunning watch!
Both are beautiful
I consider them to be 2 different watches. 1815 is great as an every day watch. Much better than Calatrava or VC or almost any other brand. 1815 Chronograph is the watch to look at with a loupe
A class by itself.
IMO the best chronograph at any price. You can spend twice as much and still not get half the quality as your 1815. Actually prefer it to the Datograph. Sacrilege to some, but don't need the date and the 1815 is so much more wearable with its reduced thic...

Congrats for this superb catch!
And we will speak about the 1815 chronograph soon... Fx
Congrats, Alexey!! Beautiful watch!! I am curious...
... why you got it in rose gold rather than white gold. I ask because you mentioned your preference for white metals several times. Or perhaps a white metal Lange will be next?!
The reason is simple
Thank you for kind words! I chose PG only becomes it was the only available option It looks quite fine)
Big congrats mate !
this is such a beautiful Chronograph with an exquisite movement ! Cheers Robin
