i went to the Lange boutique in OC and they did not know how to change it, how ridiculous is that. they told me they're not watchmakers, they just sell the watch. I didn't know you had to be watchmakers to change straps. completely unheard of from my experience with any other brand.

i see a little button but what does the button do?

Did you get a manual with the piece, should tell you. Depress the button using the supplied tool, slide out sideways and hey presto. I am somewhat shocked at the AD response you got since they size the bracelet on the steel piece for the owner on collection. I hope you were just unlucky on the day.

Now that my search for my first ALS has been sorted, and as much as i am enjoying my Datograph I find myself thinking about pairing with some different straps. So heading in to JR, and CF to check out some options.

I’m partial to at least a mahogany colored strap, but would appreciate suggestions for a 2nd or 3rd strap color, and would welcome some suggestions in terms of matte vs glossy as well

Thank you! The dial is truly mesmerizing. I find myself stealing glances at it throughout the day, just to appreciate how dramatically the pink gold changes under different lighting.

I saw the EWC listing — I am surprised it has gone unsold for so long. I feel that if people could see this dial in person, they would realize how special and unique it truly is.

I actually don't like the dial in person...so it's a very personal opinion and agree it needs to be seen in person. Lots of people love it...I'm just not in that camp.

No doubt you have a beautiful watch - love your new strap - I had an opportunity to try this on the other day - I'm still on the fence for my next Lange - I would like a PC and yours and the one below are no doubt stunning, but find myself leaning towards acquiring a gently used ZW instead as my second Lange.

I saw the EWC listing - i think the reason it has not sold yet is perhaps those that wanted the watch got it, and at this price point other options available on the secondary market -

Never worn before.

Happy 4th from Boston!

Looks like Lange is releasing new references in a week. Any idea what they'll be?

[raclaims]

Perhaps a NYC boutique edition...the NYC boutique soft opening is next week.

[cotway]

My guess is new Lange1. Anniversary year. Love my Langes!

25th year Anniversary for Dato and Lange1 correct? On their website you see the date set on Lange1 and Dato to 25…maybe a hint…can’t wait to see what they reveal.

Can’t go wrong with a ZW! Best of luck on the decision — it is a great problem to have :)

Good point about the EWC listing. Certainly that could be part of the explanation as well. I still maintain that if more people could see the dial in person, the demand for this reference would be higher. I get more compliments on this dial from strangers than any other piece in my collection.
