For the moment I am more drawn to the Dato in 39mm, why 39? Because I don't have a big wrist, 6.9, which is I guess not so bad but 39 would fit better than a 42mm watch, plus the Dato has one of the most beautiful manual wound chrono movements in the market, maybe the most beautiful even if not will agree, to have a "similar" movement when it comes to looks, you need to go for a Patek 5070 and of course of you go that way you need the PT model which is the iconic metal for that piece, and I'm sorry to say for 5070 fans, but for me the ALS movement just blows away the 5070 movement, the PP movement looks ridiculously small for the case, whereas on the Dato it looks perfect, I am just a little afraid that the watch might sit too high on the wrist

Thanks Arnaud and Dato original wears perfectly for me and my wrist almost 7.5". For me this is tops and even as 5070 fan and owner this one just impossible to beat IMHO!

Lange quality and build second to none. Lange movements second to none. Love the fact they only make 4000 watches a year and they are hand made with same watchmaker from start to finish. Also no 2 Langes are exactly alike as watchmaker engraves each one by hand and leaves special mark.

That's definitely anything but "humble". Fantastic looking 1815.

WOW! Just checked this thread. What an amazing collection of watches. All so well executed in 3 very different styles. I am particularly enamored with the Moon phase.
