MyChristmas Story. I would love to hear your thoughts

Hi dear fellow Watch lovers. Today i went for a stroll through my home town. My mother and i were looking for some last minute christmas gifts. Allthough i havent been thinking about buying a new watch for a couple of months(personal best). I decided to go and have a look at the local jewler. And thats were it happened. They had a Nomos lambda 175 years limited edition just laying there and i could not take my eyes of it. The only reason i didnt buy it right then and there is that i have never bought anything as expensive as this. Im a bit torn but i have never seen any Watch movement that blew me away like this. Maybe you guys had a similar experience once. I would love to hear some storys and thoughts. And Merry Christmas to you all.

Ps im sorry for the horrible Foto

So...did you buy it? 

Looks at the plate 

Does this count as a 3/4 plate that everybody talks about when discussing German watches or is this even more special?

Same happend to me last year, but I had no restraint and bought it then and there. If you can pull of the size, it‘s a great one.

BTW what dial is it? I think the white is the easiest to read, but might not be as interesting as the others.

That is a beautiful movement as well as being extremely well-made. I can imagine seeing it in person must be breathtaking. Please can you post more pics after you get it? I mean, you will get it, right? 😀

treat yourself with this beauty pls. also merry christmas

Such an amazing watch! Too big for me, but if you can; do it!

It was meant to be, I don't know how small your home town is. But in my mind this sounds like a Hallmark Christmas movie. 

I think you should save Christmas Valley and buy the watch! Every time you look at it. The watch will remind you of your Mom, Hometown and Christmas! 

Rational Trifecta !

I always told myself that if i ever get a Lange & Sohne (with the obvious display case back), I'll ask them to flip the strap so the movement shows on the wrist in lieu of the dial.

When you're staring at this time stands still anyway, so I might as well. 

·

It seems this watch is made for you. If you are still crazy with it and have the financial means - go for it!

So i just got Back from the Jewler and its just Perfect

Awesome 👏 not only have you got the memory lock on Christmas and Mom and hometown - all locked into this watch 😃

As per a Christmas movie: You‘ve also saved all the Whos in Whooville as well 😜
