...which leads me to a question: did you get an compliments?

Well it was an event sponsored in part by ALS so lots of heavy hitting pieces on show. I was at the Concours of Elegance a few weeks back which is another event organised by ALS and at lunch on a table of 8 were 3 Lumens and a Phantom. Mr Schmid was wearing a Zeitwerk date that day.

That Lumen is incredible. Totally unique, and avant-garde while remaining absolutely faithful to the brand.

Enjoy it in good health Sir.

Man...whew... those Lumen pics are inciting my jealousy. Concorso would be such a fun event to attend. Wow, im glad you are able to showcase your Lumen in one of the most appropriate settings!!!

Hey guys, I’m considering this datograph perpetual in a trade. It’s a thing of beauty. Wondering if there’s anything I need to consider or look out for. What’s the general consensus on this piece among the ALS fans here?

[watchucallit]

Just wondering how easy to read the sub dials.. otherwise great piece

Thanks. I agree that the sub-dials might be a bit difficult to read- especially as my eyes begin to age! But I’m happy to have to stare at this dial to figure out what the sub dials say :) Also, the perp calendar is more about the machine than it is about relaying data - at least for me

If the case dimensions work with your wrist,
I’d say it’s great. The dial is attractive and the movement is a work of art. Too big for me, fortunately...

Definitely has heft, but case dimensions work fine.

I hear you about the "fortunately"!

I have a 6.5 in wrist and wear the double split platinum Chronograph.. It is a hefty piece but balances nicely.. some might say too big for me but if it balances well.. I am in

Looks lovely.

Both the Double Split and the Datograph Perpetual are amazing watches but they are just to big for my 6.7" wrists.

Maybe you have a good explanation why the leap year indicator goes counterclockwise?

The earth rotates around the moon counterclockwise and the earth itself rotates counterclockwise.

Gorgeous. Congrats!

I was away for a few weeks with only a BLNR. Didn't realise till I got home, took him out and reset him, how much I missed this guy...

[MCMartiny]

Over the moon with this one, a true WIS watch that very elegantly flies below the radar until you turn it over...then just WOW! And she looks very good with the blue anniversary strap

Hi,
I do not know whether this thread is a right place to ask, but let me try: does anybody know how much does the proof of origin/certificate of authenticity issued by Lange & Söhne cost? I understood that it is necessary to send the watch physically to Glashutte to obtain one.
