A. Lange & Sohne Grand Lange 1 Lumen Watch
For 2013 one of the limited edition A. Lange & Sohne watches will be this neat looking and very high-end Grand Lange 1 Lumen timepiece. The piece is a mix of a few ideas that Lange has offered over the years. While typically very heavy on the "look what cool new stuff we developed," language, German A. Lange & Sohne is much more straight-forward in how they discuss this watch. In fact, while this piece will sell rather well, it is a sort of Frankenstein's monster of Lange using ideas from a few past watches together without anything really new. It is a great watch, but it does lack that "wow" factor Lange is usually able to deliver with their new products.

There were some limited edition, highly ornate skeleton Jumbos made in years past, and then in 2012, we saw a new take on an openworked Royal Oak, the limited edition 40th anniversary watch made in platinum.? The watch was freaking awesome, and just 40 pieces were made.? The only problem? It cost a literal fortune.? It was around $141,000, if m

Luminova Dial, Tritium Hands
I bought a pre-owned 2541.80 41mm Seamaster Bond Quartz off Craiglist a few weeks ago for $675 in very nice shape.The serial number is 55,341,xxx. Interestingly, the dial appears to have luminova, and the hands and bezel PIP are tritium.There is a star on one of the lugs indicating a production change I believe?Anyone else seen this?
