Wah great taste bro! I also like ALS very much, went to try a few models a few months back and got quite seriously poisoned. Nearly wanted to hoot but pulled back coz doing renov for new place now. I don't really like the new Saxonia Thin 37mm, dun fancy the idea of paying so much for a watch without a second hand. You don't even know if the watch is working or not at first glance. But that's just my own opinion.

Lange 1 is one of my grail, I find it very swee!


1815 Up/Down is my other grail which I got more chance to reach.


The pink gold and white gold Saxonia 37mm Boutique Edition very nice also, i think they are the perfect entry to ALS.






Tried the new Saxonia Thin 37mm. Was hoping to see white gold but they only had pink gold

Btw bro, is that your Nomos Tangente in the background? Nice one, there was one selling at a very good price at JW last Thu, but when i went down sold liao.

A big fan of Nomos here, no money for ALS yet but I am very happy with my little Nomos.:D

All drool-worthy, I'd die happy to even own 1. But personally think a white dial suits the Saxonia more.. The boutique edition is more unique, though

Well, there's a number of iconic pieces for which the purest expressions, even the modern ones, have no seconds.. Royal Oak and Reverso come to mind

But to each his own of course, there's a reason why there's so many versions of all these different watches out there!

Lange 1 lumen is the Lange 1 for me.

One of the charm of a saxonia thin for me is like a call out for other wis, it's so understated that if someone calls you out for it, you know that person knows his watch.

the only thing missing on this, is the swan neck regulator.

everything neat on a Glashutte watch is there
- perlage
- blue screws
- 3/4 plate

Hi bro,

Yes it's a midnight blue from timeless tie up with nomos. :)

The unique part is it also been installed with the new nomos swing system for this Orion haha although I dunno what that means or what benefit that system have hahahha

Sounds like marketing Mambo jambo

Opinions are like watches...everyone's watch shows a different time...and eveyone believes that their watch is correct...have a good time.

Yo. Mine is the default Tangente. The one sold was a Date model. Very good deal whoever bought.

I'm ok without the seconds hand. Most of my collection are like that. For this ALS beauty all you have to do is look behind to see the movement going :)

Me can't afford one too. Happy with my Nomos.
