Hello

I am a newbie here, but I have done a search before posting this thread and come up blank. I may have just missed it...

I was on DHgate a few days ago buying a new screen for an old phone when this watch popped into my feed.

Yes, I am fully aware that DHGate watches are junk and I'm not looking for advice about buying one there.

What I would like to know is is this a fantasy watch or does it actually exist? I love the look of it but will only buy it from a TD on here.

Thanks

Ian

Thanks. I did see that, but I was looking specifically for the engraved dial version. All I've seen are the "flat" face version, like the ones in your links. I'm guessing it is just a fantasy version...

It's a fantasy in the sense that the watch from DH Gate does not specifically exist. But it's an attempt to replicate the very limited edition Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Handwerkskunst. It's like a mirror image of the watch with most of the features on the face reversed on the watch from DH Gate.

It is indeed the Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Handwerkskunst, or at least as near a rep as you will find. I got one of these when I was looking for a Lange 1, and thought that the detail might fill up the dial better (the rep Lange 1 looks too empty because of the smaller 'big date'). It's a decent-looking watch in real life (the pattern on the dial and the numerals/markers really catch the light) but pretty thick.
