Revisiting: Datograph
As some of you will know I no longer have my Datograph (it was replaced by another hand wound chronograph). I was just looking through some old pictures and came across this one. Wowza. ...
Yes. I’m kinda missing it.
It was in the safe for 8 months while I tried to sell it and so it’s now almost a year since I had it on the wrist.
I’ve bought and sold the datograph..
A total of 7 times. This last time I can assure you it is staying with me
I think a psychiatrist would find a bit of OCD in all of us. [nt]
Sold it because I had the DS It’s more versatile and easier to wear than the DS and the date function is more useful than split chrono function as a day to day. So naturally I had to get it back. ...
I agree with you.
It is a marvel to see but so is the datograph. My wrist are 6 3/4 in so anything beyond a 40mm is hard for me to pull off though.
Wow!
That’s a collection. I have a deposit on a gen 1.5 Resonance to go with my Dato U/ D PT. But damn, your collection is nice.
Yes 7 times
Always the PT 1st gen. This last time I contacted an old friend Edwin H, which is probably the most photographed dato online and convinced him to sell me his. It was his photos and Peter Chong’s that drew me to Lange over 16 years ago. Everytime I sold th...
No always a love..
It was always in a period of consolidation just always felt I would be fine without it. And I would be temporarily. What’s the definition of insanity again?
Perfection
the depth, finishing and skeletonization allowing the beauty to be on display. My preference would be for the 1815 chrono without the big date (thinner and cleaner dial), but platinum dato is the tops.
Wow! Spectacular shot!
My goal is to obtain a Lange chrono at some point this year. Fingers crossed.
Your post made me think of this...
this is an old bookmark I have of the datograph deconstruct... www.watchprosite.com
The picture is worthy of a WOW indeed.
Time to get one back to take more beautiful shots!

Not only do you acquire beautiful ALS & FJP time pieces - but you combine them with thought-provoking straps. Dial colors and strap types/colors you choose are LEGEND! Where do you source your straps?
Thanks.
The straps on the Journe’s are OEM. I got them complimentary from the LA boutique when I sent my watches in for service. The DS has the IWC Santoni strap, that combo was made popular by Edwin H. The grey strap on the dato is OEM and the brown strap on the...
That's a very fine photograph of the movement.
I wouldn't look at that picture very often, if I were you.
