Incoming: Lange 1 in rose gold
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-05:57
Like Fx, I must admit being a moderator is risky! I have been looking at the Lange 1 photo contest's photos to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Lange 1.... And as you guessed it, got poisoned by the watch!! I evaluated various editions and I prefer a...
Congrats robin..

On getting another lange icon.. You guys are really making me jealous with all your new finds!! yming
Not bad for an iPhone macro shot!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-07:34
Yes I love the big date feature especially on the Lange 1 Will try to share some macro shots soon. Thanks for sharing this yming! Cheers Robin
thank you Yming :)

Ah hope we can meet up one day. Along with our small group of collectors who regularly meet up, we have quite a few Langes amongst us! We just did a gtg and I will share some pics soon. Join us next time! :) Cheers Robin

Thank you Patrick. Agree that the size is perfect for me :)

And my wife can wear this RG Lange 1 too :) I just have to be careful she doesn't like it too much that it become hers! Probably not going to share with her in case that happens haha Cheers Robin
Robin, I am not sure about ...
By: small-luxury-world : September 15th, 2014-06:49
the combination of gummy bears and champagne. BUT I love your latest purchase :-) Congrats, it is an awesome piece - even after all those years available! Best, Oliver
Gummy bears from Germany!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-07:39
That's why we had it there Oliver! :) But agree they don't go very well with champagne indeed - too much sweets :) Agree on the Lange 1 esp in RG. It's not discontinued, it's not rare, it's not LE. I am sure pieces like the platinum Darth Lange 1 is much ...
"Lange's rose gold" is special, for sure.
By: small-luxury-world : September 15th, 2014-09:05
The only thing that kept me away so far, is the fact that the side of the cases from Lange are always shiny instead of matt finished like in white metal. It is just not me :-(
Good point Oliver
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-18:57
I also noticed that. The WG and Platinum and Honey Gold all have brushed finished sides on the case. Can't remember YG but RG is all mirror polish. I am not sure if the reason is to prevent oxidation of the RG or something - someone mentioned to me mirror...
Congrats
By: dylan61 : September 15th, 2014-08:09
Robin! Such an iconic model, and looks a real beaut on your wrist.
Thanks Dylan61!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-08:13
I really love this watch. Thanks to you too for showing me your beautiful Lange 1 MP in RG. That watch also left an impact on me! :) Cheers Robin
Oh yes....well done Robin...so well done...
By: moc : September 15th, 2014-08:10

Thank you! :)

Thanks Ken!!!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-08:51
Agree Lange 1 is so iconic for Lange! As a Lange fan I must admit I did feel I must get a Lange 1 someday! :) See you soon my friend :) Cheers Robin
Thank you Nico!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-08:52
Indeed I feel such simpler watches do make me happier than complicated pieces. The Lange 1 is one such example. Cheers Robin
LOL Fx!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-18:51
And soon I will be bankrupt! No more watches now. Have to save up :) Cheers robin
Robin, congrats. This is one of my favourite watches.
By: kpk : September 15th, 2014-10:15
I have always loved the original Lange 1 in RG followed by YG. I never cared much for the other versions of this iconic timepiece. I always believe that the first and most simple versions of a timepiece are usually the best. Wear it in the best of health....
You are on fire!
By: Ares501 - Mr Green : September 15th, 2014-11:18
And you love RG Bravo Gummy bears, bubbly and Lange 1 Well done Yours D
Thanks Damjan! The gummy bears were a surprise!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-18:53
From the boutique staff. I thought it was cute to have the Lange 1 sit on the bears haha :) Thanks for your kind words my friend Cheers robin
Another one! :)
By: blomman Mr Blue : September 15th, 2014-14:03
Congratulation, Robin! :) Both you and Fx - was there a sale I missed....?! ;) Stunning watch, wear it in best of health. Best Blomman
Hahaha! A sale you missed!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-18:54
To be honest, it's better to miss such "sales" if they ever exist! Let's save up for our kids my friend :) This is going to be my last watch for a long time to come. Cheers robin
Congrats Robin
By: shihui4 : September 15th, 2014-18:35
An absolute stunning beauty! One more to add to your harem!
Thanks Pam!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2014-18:55
Will be my last one for a very long time! Cheers robin

You will eat your words sooner than you think Robin! :) I think the L1 is the watch that put ALS back on centre stage back in 1994. It was a bit revolutionary at the time but with all good designs it has withstood the test of time. A huge congrats for mak...
How does this compares with your PP5146 ?
By: ue52square : September 16th, 2014-01:04
Hi Robin, I have read many of your postings on the JLC forum and aware of your impressive collection. The JLC MUT Perpetual is impressive and this Lange 1 is just spectacular ! Wonder in your opinion, which would make a better daily office wear, the Lange...
Interesting question Alex
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 16th, 2014-03:46
Thank you for your kind words on my collection. For the Lange 1, a more comparable version to the pp 5146 will be the Lange 1 moonphase I feel. Anyway I think the Lange 1 is a more suitable daily office watch being a simpler watch IMHO. Also I much prefer...
Great comparison pictures ....thanks a lot
By: ue52square : September 16th, 2014-06:11
Indeed I am considering the Lange 1 MP which is priced within the range of a PP5146. The photo of your Lange 1 placed side by side with the PP5146 does highlight the simplicity and beauty of the Lange 1 dial. Not that the PP is inferior in any way, it's c...
Either one is a good choice
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 16th, 2014-08:18
Let us know what you go for eventually! Both the Lange 1 mp and PP 5146 are great pieces. I think the 5146 is priced slightly higher though being an annual calendar. Cheers Robin
Thank you. Indeed Lange's RG
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 23rd, 2014-05:22
is very very nice! I hope to do a review on various brand's RG soon Cheers robin
Superb watch!
By: jlux : September 16th, 2014-01:10
The Lange 1 is such a beautiful and classic time piece. A great addition to your superb collection! Best, Gerard
Thank you again Gerard!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 16th, 2014-03:50
Agree the Lange 1 is very classic indeed I regretted not getting it earlier! Cheers Robin
Bling bling...
By: ianny : September 16th, 2014-02:33
Congrats my friend. Great piece to add to your "glowing" collection. Regards, Ian
Congratulations Robin!
By: tudorctin : September 16th, 2014-09:54
Lange 1 is a classic. If you want to stop buying watches for a while you better move to another place (deserted island?). Too many temptations in Singapore! Regards, Constantin
Agree Constantin!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 16th, 2014-18:45
And thank you for your well wishes. Indeed, I have to move to a safer place. My home country is very tempting indeed! cheers robin
Another very well done here!
By: COUNT DE MONET : September 18th, 2014-08:40
I would have loved to get a L1 also before there are no left but my budget ... . Anyhow: yes the L1 mp is also gorgeous and "funny" to see that you considered it also. To me the L1 mp looks complete, but the L1 is certainly without the mp THE L1. Enjoy in...
Thanks Moritz!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 19th, 2014-16:55
I am sure there will always be Lange 1s around - let us know when you get one next time and we will celebrate with you! :) Cheers Robin
Looks Great Robin!
By: bsbg : September 21st, 2014-11:53
I recently tried on a few Langes and think that experience is going to cost me some money soon :). Enjoy it in good health!
