The A. Lange Sohne watch is equipped with a dial silver money
The watch is equipped with a dial silver money that features applied markers of the time wand and strong hands or Lance-shaped and solid. The time marker doubled to 12 makes it easier to read the time when watch is not on the wrist.As usual, the sub-dial of the second subsidiary is located at 06 offset Lange logo at 12 o'clock.

What are the differences between early 2000 models and the current models? I'm looking at a rose gold chrono on bracelet and cannot see much of a difference dial wise. Was wondering if it makes sense to buy new from the new AP store in Beverly Hills or go grey market on here...thanks

First Omega in Space - finally
Back in 2006, I was able to obtain a set of original NOS CK 2998 hands and a friend gave me a cal 861 movement. The plan was to assemble my second project watch which was to be a commemorative of Wally Schirra's Mercury-Atlas 8 flight.I even designed a special case back but unlike the Omega design (which isn't that bad), I used the flight patch logo of Sigma 7 in the center with this wording around the edge: THE FIRST - SPEEDMASTER - IN SPACE - SCHIRRA - MERCURY-ATLAS 8 - OCT. 3, 1962.Here is a photo of the first attempt to fabricate the back:Circumstances precluded completion of my project but I am more than pleased with Omega's upcoming release. I have already placed my order.Fr. John?

Overpolished 5164a?
Hi everyone, I'm a lurker on this forum but have been a member for some time. I recently purchased a 5164a from a reputable second-hand dealer. The watch was used, albeit relatively young in age, and appeared to be in excellent condition; the dealer claimed they never retouched or polished the watch when I asked. I love the watch, h owever, a couple of days ago I noticed something odd. I noticed that the top part of the watch's bezel seemed to look a little asymmetrical, almost slightly deformed and not as angular as I expected from this watch. I've attached pictures of the watch and the deformity appears to be on the top right part of the bezel, between 12 and 1:06 o'clock. It's not easy to see, but if you look closely perhaps it becomes apparent..It almost appears to slope too much compared to the other corners of the bezel. Ever since I've noticed this, I've been obsessing over it and am honestly quite choked by it. Was this a case of an over polishing by the previous owner, therefo

80mm x 120mm band wrist size says 6.25 to 7.25 only? is this true?anyone with larger wrists have a recommendation on rubber straps? want a strap with a little bit of tail not a nub, lol...and it seems rubber b and Everest are the only two options for curved rubber, right?
