Hi there, Here are some photos of the Lange Datograph UP/DOWN in platinum, hope you'll enjoy it....  

I especially like pictures 3 and 5.... they really show the details of the dial which I find most pictures miss. And amazing rear pics too of course! Thanks!

Most Beautiful pics of a very handsome watch! Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed the photos alot! The Dato up/down is very nice indeed. One of the king of chronos! cheers robin

the depth and the contrast. Thank you for sharing :)

We do not see you here too often, but when we do, it is always a treat. Excellent photos as always. Looking forward to more ! Dean

I know I don't post here very often, but I try to post only interesting stuff... and I work a lot, so I just can't spend much time posting here, even if I would be happy to do it more often... ;)

Probably the best shots of the Dato ever seen by me. thanks, Ovi

Thanks a lot for your amazing photos! Hope I can get these photos out of my old DATO.

C'est Magnifique!! Bravo

You said it just right ! Merci ! ;)

...actually got me slightly off as the luminous hourmarker at 6 does not line up with the 30-minute marker. As I being too anal here?

Not at all. Over the years I've learned when buying such pieces to alway carry my very best loupe and flash light, give the dial a good 10-20 min+ inspection checking for alignment issues to scratches; the latter is easier with the flash light to allow a ... 

Stunning pictures ! Of course the watch itself is gorgeous, but you managed to get the best of it with your pictures : lighting, contrast, perfect game with the depth of field... : huge congrat's. I wish I can manage to capture the best out of my watches ... 

Jacques, could you care to elaborate your photography technique i.e camera, lens, lighting technique, use of light box etc Thanks again for sharing.

I took these photos with a Canon 60D and a standard Canon macro 2.8 100mm lens. And even if it's some good gear, with this set and the previous one for the 1815 UP/DOWN, I started to think I could be better with more professional camera and lens. So I jus... 

These pictures look perfect to me with spot on exposure and superb DOF; inspirational indeed!! keep it coming Thanks again

The bigger sensor on the 5D by virtue of size gives a thinner DOF which will be counterproductive in macro photography. Also with a full frame sensor, the 100mm lens is well, 100mm, which necessitates moving the camera closer to the subject, potentially c... 

No, I didn't perform focus stack... I've never tried this technique... I should, I know, at least to understand how to do it properly and see the result... The thinner DOF doesn't bother me, I just have to find the good aperture, and so far, it's seems to... 

thanks a lot! Best, Andreas

... for your kind words, it's a pleasure to share some of my work here !

Even if the watch doesn't have the same magic than the original Datograph, it remains a superb chronograph, one of the top high horology ones. Fx

Some of the best watch photography I have seen ! Stunning ! Thanks for sharing !

Now I fall in love with the new one!

Danke for these and do enjoy your marvellous beauty! Tschuss Stephen

Datograph movement is always nice to be photographed! Best, Sam

Wow -- many thanks for posting these! Really appreciate your eye and your use of subtle monochrome props to set off the watch. My only very minor suggestion (if I may) is that a few of the movement shots seem to have the white balance a bit on the "blue" ...
