The Lange Datograph in platinum, so I'll have to make due with my steel Crosswind Special. Lol.

I've convinced myself that I can afford to drop $25k on the Breguet Tradition . . . but my wife isn't exactly sold on the idea . . . yet.

Thanks. Well, I guess I was being optimistic when I compared the look of my CWS to the Lange in terms of the dial. The back, however, is no comparison... :)

The Datograph isn't my favorite Lange from the front, but from the back it's a thing of beauty. I think I had a girlfriend once that was similar . . .

When I saw my beloved Tradition in person, I was disappointed as to how plain the back looked. However, as it has no complications and many of the parts have been moved to the front, I didn't expect it to be as impressive as your Lange. I still expected something a little more refined, though. Nonetheless, I'd still happily wear it.

Hmmm, gimme the crosswind. Can't see the back when it's on your wrist.
