A. Lange & Söhne 403.032
Lange, the first generation big head, model: 403.032, 39mm case diameter, 18K rose gold, original 99 new original factory original strap, extremely perfect.
Philippe Dufour once said, "The best chronograph is made in Germany, and that is the Datograph." This is also the watch he has publicly purchased with his own money so far.
The first-generation big head features a perfect 39mm size, a dynamic dial (Roman numerals at 2, 6, and 10 points), a movement as beautiful as a painting, and colors (ruby bearings, fork plates, golden yellow screw balance wheels, gears, and blue steel screws against a German silver background with a slightly warm golden hue, achieving a truly realistic design by balancing the mechanics inside).
The most beautiful big head is the first generation. The reasons are as follows:
Big things tend to be rough. The size of 39 is like a small, round golden alarm clock tied around the wrist, elegant and sexy.
Nowadays, mechanical watches are important accessories for men, and manual chronograph movements are works of art. However, at that time, the time function of the wristwatch was more important, so in the later generations, the major ones made compromises to increase the power reserve. The larger mainspring barrel and the added dynamic reserve display on the dial disrupted the original balance of the dial, so all the hands had to be changed to Toffee hands.
This is a compromise between beauty and practicality, which goes against the current supremacy of art. Therefore, the "Big Head of One Generation" has been deified in the hearts of collectors and foreign countries.
