Yes, this model is well-suited for a lumen edition.
I like it much more than the Datograph Up/Down Lumen.
I typically don't like watches with dials that are this "busy," and the moonphase disc is annoyingly small. Those things bothered me in the "normal" Dato PC Tourbillon but not on this version. I would feel better about the pink dial version if only the date disc background were pink/salmon (same color as dial) instead of white.
Now, is the PRICE of this model justified? That's a different story, especially since they're making 50 of these rather than a smaller number like 25 (which I was expecting, since it's the 25th anniversary of the Dato).

Spent time with Lange's latest creation today.
SO much nicer in person than in the photos! Usually when wearing the watch on the right, I don't want to trade for whatever else is in front of me. But in this case, I'd make an exception! ...
That watch is spectacular
Even in pictures it looks breathtaking to me...Lucky you are to have spent time with it!!!

The price is not an issie, if you are in the pisition to spend it.
I am not, but we all know there are plenty, plenty of people who will be. 😃
To me this is one is an absolute triumph, the best version of a Lumen.
The complications and dial, case and material sind size are perfect. It is a clear statement of wealth, knowledge about watches and passion. An occult looking piece! 😃
I will say that it's a bit uncomfortable on the wrist due to the 14.6mm thickness.
Lange has made thicker watches, such as the Tourbograph and the Lange 31, which are similarly uncomfortable. The ZW Striking Time (at 13.1mm) is probably my limit for thickness.
I have seen it during W&W . Incredible ALS .
That lume is amazing but that price tag 😱
A marvel!
For me next to the „simple“ black dialed ZW the most intriguing and fascinating watch from ALS. Thanks for the pics! 🙏
Thrilled for you having that experience, CR. What a stunning, bold piece.
Love your L1 tourbillon too!
Yes, pics are much more legible than my experience in real life due to my bad eyesight!
I remember the days when I could actually see the smaller complications with my naked eye. They were nice!
Yes: I can relate to that too.
The photos we all take and post allow us to acutely appreciate those details - and it's very comforting to know that those details are still there! A Lange movement still looks as good as it ever did.
It’s beautiful.
How thick is this watch? It looks well proportioned on some shots I’ve seen and not others (not that I am looking to purchase … just wondering 🤔).
