I think it might still be too soon but by summer I bet the tides will have changed. We shall see.

Interesting info. Honestly everything seems a bit different in the UK when it comes to watches.

Not sure how many of these they can make a year, then spread across the 20 or so boutiques they have. I am lucky to own one and it has impressed me the more I wear it. It is definitely better in person than in pictures. Here on one of the few straps it fits.
Congrats. I understand their intentions but have doubts about these strategies holding not just with Lange but virtually across the board outside maybe the 5711 and 116500. We shall see.

Enjoy your watch
