I don't really care for this model, but those Datographs are amazing.

IMHO if I was ever going to buy something to keep other than a Rolex it would be A.Lange & Sohne I dont care to much for that particular 1 though.
For me my grail outside of Rolex is this 1

That model wouldn't be for me, but I realize that Lange makes nice stuff, so I hope you continue to enjoy it.

Had it / sold it (took a bloodbath as well) / regret selling it - but not enough to buy another one

The skip hour / minutes is a good for awhile - after that I sort of miss the "normal" analog configuration of a watch.

The moon phase is nice. I just happened to come across the zeitwerk in the new watch time and thought it was really cool.

This is my favorite A.Lange as well though I could never afford it, retails for nearly $80K IIRC. A used 1815 is more attainable for me.

Spectacular watch, though little odd in appearance.
I like it very, very much!

This watch is very similar to the Sicura watches of the 70's
