). Congratulations my friend, please do wear this one in great health and enjoy that stunning piece of horology!

P.S.: Not to brag but as soon as I saw that thread I thought "oh, somebody bought a double split flyback ALS..."!

Thanks Carl!!

I do believe you are the chronograph king, That watch is Epic. Not to mention all those other amazing pieces you have. If your ever in need of a "human" watch winder to keep your collection running I would be glad to help free of charge.

Chrsmac10 · 1 June 2012, 12:51 PM

Wow again my jaw is still on the floor. Congrats again Ken on that masterpiece

MrJ320 · 1 June 2012, 01:12 PM

Wow, congrats Ken! What an amazing watch to add to your collection. Absolutely love the Lange.

john333 · 1 June 2012, 01:21 PM

Just when I think you can't trump any of your previous purchases...

Wow!! That movement is truly artwork, and a totally different level of watchmaking than most of us will ever be fortunate enough to experience. Huge congrats Ken!! I know you will thoroughly enjoy this one for years to come.

wrxsti · 1 June 2012, 02:25 PM

my jaw dropped to the floor! stunningly beautiful!

Andad · 1 June 2012, 06:09 PM

Just beautiful Kenneth.

The movement is pure mechanical genius.

Enjoy wearing it.

ghaddar · 1 June 2012, 06:24 PM

Incredible watch huge congrats enjoy it !

HL65 · 1 June 2012, 07:24 PM

Thanks everyone--much appreciated! I feel truly blessed to have this and also to had such great people and friends to share it with here!!

DiamondJack · 1 June 2012, 07:37 PM

Hey Ken...... I've already dropped to my knees a few times in awe and also posted on the attire thread.

But just had to post again given the undeniable marvel that time piece is. I absolutely love the normal Datograph which I know you have also had in the past...... but this just takes it to the next level......absolutely sensational and jaw dropping........

With your Rolex, JLC, PP's and APs, you must have virtually all of the most desirable timepieces out there at the moment bar none.......

I would love to see what you currently have in your watch box in one shot........ Although clearly severe health warnings would need to be given in advance ....... we wouldn't want to put a huge strain on the international emergency services all over the world as you reveal everything.........

Stunning my friend...... just stunning......

Thanks Steve--they are all locked away in the bank vault and I only keep one on me and maybe one in the secret safe. Maybe some day I will take them out and do a shot but for me better "in the safe than sorry"!! As for this one--it is truly special and quite an amazing break thru in watchmaking history. One truly has to see it to really appreciate it! It is the perfect watch as far as I am concerned. Thanks again and have a great weekend!
