Incoming - My First ALS
Appropriately, a Lange 1. Christmas came a little early, and I am smitten. Cheers!

Very nice! Congratulations! Almost pulled the trigger on one of these this past week - going back and forth between this and a PP AC - still up in the air.

Didn’t factor that into decision. Went with metal, size and condition as deciding criteria.

Thanks, all! It’s special, no doubt.

Congratulazione this is a great addizione to your little colleczione and a very cool complicazione as well. Im looking at owning a Lange 1 moonphase in the future as my end game.

Congrats, ALS is an outstanding watchmaker, can't go wrong with any of their watches.

I have a question: in a past thread, someone mentioned that the date apertures don't sit at the same level, one is slightly lower than the other. Can you OP or anyone confirm this?
