German driving
Did some very German driving yesterday in the sense that both car (250SL) and watch (191.028) are epic representatives of German engineering and design.

Looking at the steering wheel, suppose a Pagode. And I suppose we can excuse some damage to the steering wheel of a car that is 50+ years old 😉
Correct on both counts 😀
A 250SL (W113) from 1967…and yes, like its owner it has a certain patina.

I love the photo...
Is that larger Lange 1 (Grand Lange?). Also a black dial on rose gold? I have an Lange 1 from early 2000's that has a black dial. You don't see them very often.
A few answers to your qustions…
Forst of all, thank you for your kind comments. You can see more on IG @cfnissen
- The car is a 250SL (Pagoda) from 1967
- It is in decent, but not concours shape, thus the damage/wear visible in the photo. Next winter will bring a restoration project, still TBD
- The watch is a normal Lange 1, more precisely the 191.028 (blue dial/white gold) from 2017/2018.
Thank you,
Claus
Thank you Claus...
I was hesitant to speculate on the color of the Lange 1 as I am color blind with certain colors, and can not distiguish between many dark colors for example blue and black. Sort of embarassing for me. Nevertheless the watch looks fantastic!
No worries. The dial takes a wide range of colors depending on the lighr, angle, etc.
Splendid!
Love the Pagode, most beautiful SL in my humble opinion 👍
And also love your Lange 1. Allow me to follow up with the reference following yours. My 101.029 😊 although on a much simpler ride.
