Which sapphire glass do you prefer for your Platinum Datograph?
THIS OR THAT? (I know, i have to post better quality pictures, taken with a proper camera...)...
Let me clarify...
One has the anti-reflection glass, the other no. One is blueish, the other totally black. One is totally matte, the other a little bit shiny. Both "wear" the original glass that was mounted when they were manufactured. It is the only difference between bo...
right one
The one on the right which I guess by looking at it is the anti-reflective one.
ANOTHER PHOTO of the Lange sapphire glasses
Here the difference between the two versions of the Lange sapphire glass is visible: just compare the two PT Datographs. - left PT=non A/R coating - right PT=A/R coating - the RG Datograph is equipped with the A/R glass....
I once changed AR to NON AR
I prefer the warm soft look of non-AR. I did this on a Lange 1. Preferred it very much.

Ah, sorry...
... I thought you had been long enough here. Alkis is kinda celebrity among Lange owners in US. He is the only authorized servicer for Lange for US (or North America), located in New York. While I was in NY, he took care of all of my Lange new or used. He...
always with A/R coating
it makes the watch look like there is no glass over the dial and I like that.
