The Lang & Heyne 'Heinrich'
The Heinrich is no longer part of the current Lang & Heyne catalog and it is believed that only around 20 were made. It features four complications : Anti-retrograde radial pointer date (it jumps across from 31 to 1 at the beginning of the month) Power re...
Love the movement side…
And the deadbeat seconds. Would have preferred it without the date and PR. And the triple lugs personally don’t work for me🤷🏻♂️
I completely understand your reservations.
The triple lugs are featured on all LH models. But other models have a "cleaner" or more classic dial, that's for sure. Best, Emmanuel
I know the triple lugs are a part of the DNA…
But not my favorite design choice 🤷🏻♂️
pretty similar answer
the movement is sublime ( well of course ... it's L&H ) But I don't like the dial, too much going on and they make such great grand feu enamel dials The seconde morte is a complication I don't like either
I agree with many of the reservations expressed by you, Nico and KMII.
That said, I could live with the platinum example with pear hands. The PR indicator bothers me, but I know that I would love the experience of looking at it while winding the watch (which has only 33h of PR). But, yes, there might be better options in the...
I really like these Lang & Heyne "Heinrich" watches.
I think the blued hands look superb and the overall look and style is quite elegant. Marc
Not bad...
but there are better options from L&H I feel. The pluses for me are the retrograde date and long second hand but I am not a fan of dead-beat. The Friedrich without the power reserve indicator seems more elegant to me. Those cathedral hands are so beautifu...
Beautiful indeed, thanks for sharing, Goh!
I agree with you on all counts, but I don't completely dislike the Heinrich. I'm bothered by the PR indicator, but I like the retrograde date. Best, Emmanuel
Lang und Heyne is impressive watchmaking, no question.
But I confess I can't really bring myself to like their watches. The design strikes me as far too dated and old-fashioned, almost a caricature of German style. This must be a matter of taste, I suppose.
Well, of course, it is only a matter of taste.
I tend to like old-fashioned designs, so no surprise there for me. But, I fully understand that some are looking for something different and more contemporary. Best, Emmanuel
The only thing that matters to me is that I love it.
Some may say it's an outdated design, but that doesn't affect me at all: my answer is that I like it! ☺️
Truly amazing...
Treatment of the PR indicator is bit off, does not quite sync with the rest of the dial, perhaps could transfer to the backside. Otherwise, really impressive.
Yes, the PR indicator is debatable.
It may be part of the reason why this model is discontinued... Best, Emmanuel
