Hard choice - a toss-up for me.
It depends what else you have in your collection would be my answer (as useless an answer as that may be!).
The L1 is an update to a super classic, but the movement and ethos of the Duometre is more interesting in my opinion.
Visually, do you (and your collection) prefer/need a warm RG egg dial or more sober (but still beautiful!) WH black dial more?
My father-in-law actually picked up that exact Duometre last week (I may or may not have given some gentle guidance). He loves it, and I'm eagerly awaiting the chance to take pics.

AL&S vs. JLC moonphases
I'm considering two similar yet very different watches. I've placed an order for the new Lange 1 moonphase in WG with black dial, announced at SIHH 2017. But last weekend I spent time with a friend's JLC Duometre Quantieme Lunaire in RG, which I had never...

Go for the JLC. Explanation: The moon phase is accurate to only one day each 2, 5 years while it is at least 122 years for the Lange One MP. Now, if it is not important for you, then the JLC Duometre à QL. It is a vey special watch due to its construction...
depends
if you already have a Lange in your collection, than go for the JLC. Both have different functionalities and purpose. As for me, this black dial L1 is lovely !
Looks like there is some kind of consensus and... I'm going to participate to it...
The ALS L1 gets my vote too Keep us posted with pics of the one that you will pick Best, Mike

Thank you all...
I am surprised at the degree of consensus on such a clearly subjective judgment. But maybe not that surprised: AL&S is hard to surpass in its austere beauty. In response to some questions: I don\'t have a Lange currently, and I don\'t need more RG in the ...
