In-Depth: The A. Lange & S?hne 1815 Chronograph, Revisited
One of the more interesting comparisons we’ve done in recent months was in the latest edition of Three On Three, in which we compared three really strong watches – all hand-wound, all chronographs, and all with in-house movements. As we noted then, in-house hand-wound chronograph movements in wristwatches have actually been something of a rarity in European watchmaking; chronographs are surprisingly challenging to engineer (I remember Cartier’s Carole Forestier once telling me that a tourbillon was actually much easier to do than a good chronograph movement) and in general, if you wanted to do a chronograph wristwatch you’d get a movement from a specialist supplier like Nouvelle Lemania. One of the biggest surprises to many watch enthusiasts, therefore, was the introduction by A. Lange & Söhne, in 1999, of the Datograph, which instantly became one of the most talked about watches in the world, and which was not only an in-house chronograph, but an in-ho

168.1502 or 2551.80.00?
Hi guys, I'm confused about the model number of my Omega Seamaster. On the paperwork from the seller lists 2551.80.00 but I'm having it serviced and the jeweller has given me the reference 168.1502, which I presume is what's stamped on the case. What's the difference?

One watch guy but want to wear something else every couplle of years
So I have a 2016 Explorer that I love. I have this watch since last year Christmas.In the future, let's say a couple of years I like a GMT2. And after that, some years more, a Day-Date. My goal is just to wear a quality wrist watch for the rest of my life, not filling a watch box. Besides that not breaking the bank. Timeline is loosely like this: I am 39 years old now, somewhere at 42 get the GMT2. At 45/47 get the Day-Date.The Day-Date is not a real end-game watch or grail to me (but hey: that President's bracelet ), after that I might get into AP, PP etc.I feel I have no any problem to sell my current watch because it will be replaced by another great watch. No sentimental value or passing it on etc.I like to hear from other one watch guys who have the same game plan or are already on this path.
