My Lange journey...
I dipped into Lange back in 2012 with the Lange 1 Darth. A beautiful piece but I don't remember wearing it often – perhaps it is too classy for me or the lack of deployant buckle could be the reason why it wasn't worn much.
A big fan of Chronographs then, I added the 1815 Chronograph a few months later after many back and forth between it and the mighty Datograph. The 1815 Chronograph became one of my favourite watches, and accompanied me on many of my trips.
I finally succumbed to the lure of Datograph in 2015, as I missed having a black dial Lange after selling the Lange 1 Darth, and for many years, I have 2 beautiful chronographs from Lange in my collection.
The Datograph was gone as part of consolidation at the end of 2022, I also thought of letting the 1815 Chrono go and move away from Lange altogether. Then I chanced upon the elusive L1 Luminous that I have always desired, and that brought me back to the brand, I also bought the Langematik Perpetual on that same day!
Nowadays, I would like to focus on Perpetual Calendars and PCC, so traded the 1815 Chrono and a couple of other pieces for the Datograph Perpetual. The L1 Luminous was gone as well, to a fellow collector on this forum.
So here I am with these 2 Langes in my collection:
What is your Lange journey - what do you own, sold or aiming for?
Best,
