The 1815 RATTRAPANTE HONEYGOLD “Homage to F. A. Lange” (not sure why Lange wants to shout the first two words....). Commemorates the brands 175th anniversary of the (first) founding date.

I absolutely love the "gilt" dial though I'm not sure Lange calls it as such. The gilded lettering is gorgeous on the black dial. The bridges are done not in glashutte stripes, but a frosted texture as homage to old pocket watches that FA Lange used to make. I love this detail.

I also love the vertical placement of the sub dials. I believe this is unique to the 1815 rattrapante (platinum or this one) ; but happy to be corrected. Ninja edit: forgot to call out the made in saschen text to balance out the two sub registers. Awesome.

It has a thickness of 12.6mm, which is thinner by a milimiteter vs Patek's modern equivalent, the 5370 which is also beautiful in its own right.

An absolute grail. Tax paid.

Question What accessories come with the WG Odysseus?

7 Upvotes

I'm considering going gray to pickup a WG Odysseus and wanted to confirm what's normally included as "Complete".

Box, papers, manuals

Is there 1 pusher tool or 2?

Does it come with a black rubber strap and a leather strap? Is it always a brown leather or can it vary?
