A beautiful dial and a perfect balance!

A nice use of the "slim" movement.

Thanks for the pics!

And Dean, yeah nice to have a splash of color aside from the blued hands . . . 

Yes, congrats! The 1815 Up/Down was underappreciated during its first incarnation. [nt]

NICE 1815 UP/DOWN

This is my Grail watch!!! Gorgeous!

A question for you

 
 By: sham1 : January 17th, 2014-00:49

This watch has a power reserve of 72 hours. How many times/turns (sorry for the incorrect word used here) do you need to wind it for the watch to be fully wound from zero power? I ask this because I purchased the rose gold version 3 weeks ago and was quite surprised that it needed more than 150 turns to have the watch fully wound. I have a watch with a 108 hour power reserve and that takes only 70 to 75 turns.

Does anyone know if this is to do with the single barrel used in the movement Instead of a double barrel?

Thank you.

PS You have excellent taste - to me (but I am biased), the best Lange in production.

 

 

 

beautiful

Great shots of an amazing watch. Thanks for sharing.

Thx for the comments and congrats to you, too!

The first wind, it took so long I had to watch the power indicator to be sure nothing was wrong!  I was not prepared for the number of winds, either - did not count, but I don't  think you'd be far off from 150.

Winding

 
 By: Mads : April 20th, 2014-12:01
Hello, amazing watch! One question regarding winding, is the amount of turns needed reduced after the initial winding? So the 150 turns is a one off thing?

Thanks, Mads

No . . .

 
 By: drhr : April 20th, 2014-17:07
takes a while to wind each and every time, but it's fine for me, gives me time to enjoy the watch more . . .

No the 150 turns approximately...

 
 By: sham1 : April 20th, 2014-22:14

No the 150 turns approximately is a regular feature every 72 hours (the length of the power reserve).

Love this piece, congratulations on the acquisition and than you for the pictures. That movement comes to life with the additional exposure.

Wear it well, and in good health

If there is a more perfect watch made by A and L...

 
 By: Mostel : April 20th, 2014-14:42
I do not know of one...

That is A and L distilled to perfection.

I wish they had been so meticulous with the 1815 chrono dial....

Congrats!!

Thank you!
