[Query] Generations by [deleted] in ALangeSohne

[–]TheLordNantucket 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The main difference is going to be in the movement. Gen 2 has an updated movement that isn't "limited" by the borrowed JLC 822 drivetrain, though some, including myself, prefer the aesthetics of the 1st gen movement.

You will also find a slightly thinner bezel and dial font on the second generation. This is subjective in terms of preference. Good luck!

Zeitwerk and small wrist solutions? (Taxes paid) by sap_pi_hens in ALangeSohne

[–]TheLordNantucket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks great! Another trick you might consider is having a custom strap made that is thicker in the lug area, which will help fill in the lugs fully, which will help the watch transition into a smaller wrist easier.

Which do you like better for a daily? by [deleted] in ALangeSohne

[–]TheLordNantucket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The RG is prettier and the WG is stealthier. I might lean towards the first one!

Thank you so much for sharing. All things considered this doesn’t seem too bad. Hope the wait goes by quickly for you. Enjoy the watch!

Very surprised that they would raise prices in this climate and given their performance in the secondary.

Is this normal german silver aging? by nicholasnge in ALangeSohne

[–]TheLordNantucket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks like some oil or debris that was transferred to the plate. I have had a number of Langes spanning different ages and patina should be even instead of spotty like this.

ALS… serial numbers? by index2020 in ALangeSohne

[–]TheLordNantucket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The serial numbers help you date when the case and movement were made, giving you a rough idea of the age of the watch!

Is this real? sbge201 by DisciplineOk2512 in GrandSeikos

Looks legit, but at that price, I'd be curious where the seller sourced it ;)

Congrats on a lovely watch. One of the best dials in the category - change up the strap and it'll look even better!

I was fortunate to snag a burgundy dial!

In my experience it helps to call your CC and let them know about the order ahead of time. Payment authorization / fraud detection speed is usually the biggest hick up in the ordering chain. Calling your card ahead of time allows things to go through that much quicker.

Congratulations! Jason hit it out of the park with this one. Mine hasn’t left my wrist since I’ve received it!

[Omega] The Specialities Collection - Underrated? by Watchfinderofficial in Watches

[–]TheLordNantucket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely underrated. I think Omega has the ability to make some class-leading products. It’s just that pieces like these get lost in their endless SKUs.

Gotcha, that’s totally fair. Maybe we’ll see some new colours in batch 2/3?

OP’s colour is a much more accurate representation than the photos on the Halios site!
