A. LANGE & SOHNE LANGE 1 Model 101.027

[zama]

Time has come to do renovations!

As I love all my watches equally, I am going to list them all and see what moves to get to the $50K bill my builder has quoted me.

Given I live in Australia and most of my watches were bought in more favorable currency days, there is a chance for some real bargains as I value my return in $A, as that will be what I pay for the renovations with.

My ALS was purchased in February 2015 from a Sydney Dealer (Freedman SVW - Vintage Watch Company you can find them on the net) and has been in a rotation of 6 watches through that time so has probably seen no more than 2 months wrist time (band I would describe at 90%+ new). It was with them on consignment from a collector and was effectively new old stock at the time I purchased it (having never been worn).

It has all paperwork, warranty card boxes etc as would be expected.

The Blue dial I think is perhaps the prettiest ALS available and is a stunning piece. The Back perspective as we all know is the stuff of legend.

It has a very small mark on case near 9pm that would polish out very lightly, you have to look hard for it, but I believe in full disclosure.

Serial Number 1275X7/101.027/1173XX

Price in USD$17,000 which will probably be the lowest price one of these has ever traded on TRF second hand, a check on Chrono24 put them a between US$19.6 and US$25K. Will ship to USA/Europe/Australia and NZ and some other markets.

I will need to work with my bank how we can arrange a bank transfer. I will ship the watch with full tracking via the method of your choice once payment is in my bank. I am a trusted member of TRF and have over 4000 posts (many of my watches have been shown at Sydney GTG). Freight cost and any additional insurance will be at your cost and I can confirm this before transfer. I will mark the parcel as desired by the buyer. I know with my shoes I buy in the UK delivery is usually only around 3 days to Australia so no real impost if waiting on Fed-Ex, DHL etc....

Please send me a TRF message or email on [email protected] with any questions.

Happy to have authenticated by an AD if desired at your cost for a genuine purchaser. Photos are a mix of high res (wearing and some others using a crappy camera). Again happy to have Authenticated if any questions.
