Nice shoes compliment nice watches very well. My shoes will take awhile as they apply the patina. Once I collect them I may do some shoes and watches shots lol Meanwhile thanks to my bros who reminded me of my VC Traditionelle, a watch i often neglect... ...  

...but they are blurry in the photo. ;-) The Traditionelle is a really fine watch. I would venture to say that it is a perfect watch, and there are very few of examples of perfection around. In the end, it does not matter if it is rare (although VCs are a... 

Happy 2015 too! The shoes are not ready yet. I should be able to collect them next week. This is an existing pair - nice but not that great shoes :) Yes I'm happy to wear my VC Traditionelle again! And agree rarity is not an important criteria. Would rath... 

after a spell when it doesn't get much time on the wrist: it makes you appreciate it all over again. While I have owned a few special edition watches, I don't especially place any "extra" value on a watch being limited. I have to like it for its own intri... 

Good that fellow PuristS like you and Respo have affirmed my belief that rarity is not as important as liking a watch as it is. Yes the Traditionelle is indeed a perfect dress watch to me! Rewind back to sep 2012. Will I buy this watch again? The answer i... 

One of the best in your collection IMHO. Can't wait for the shoes shots. LOL. Regards, Ian

And thanks bro for reminding me of this watch and helping me love it again! Cheers Robin

Thanks for these very nice pictures. The Traditionelle and the Saxonia are both high on my wants! :-)

Good choices Richard I like Langes as you know. When I compared the Saxonia vs the VC Traditonelle back in Sep 2012, I chose the Vc though. It's all a matter of tastes but the hands, applied indices of the VC are thicker and I feel it gives the dial more ... 

I've not had the opportunity to compare them side by side, but it's definitely something I would want to do before making any decision.

Ion. :)) Visit again next time you come Singapore Cheers Robin

I noticed that the last time I walked into the Lange boutique, but resisted the urge to go to the other one for good reason...LOL

The strap looks like it matches your shoes :-) Best, Joseph

Reading all your comments I feel like wearing this watch again today :) Cheers Robin

it is truly a spectacular but understated piece. I enjoy mine, perhaps not enough but your post has inspired me to be sure it is on the wrist soon. It is a "dress" watch, but works rather well with casual attire as well. And we definitely need shoe pics :... 

I actually feel comfortable with it paired with tees and jeans even. Shoes pictures will come soon. Cheers Robin

Thanks for sharing, Robin. May I ask what color is the dial? Cheers, Ken

There is also a cream dial boutique edition version which is very nice too Cheers Robin

This manual winding Traditionelle is my next VC target. Have a Happy New Year and wear the lovely watch in good health! Henry

Thanks for your kind words! :) May 2015 be a great year for you and your family Cheers Robin
