Discoutinued Lange 1

I know, too many questions today :) What can I say, I have a passion for these watches!
Here's the question: what are (were) the specs and general features of this discontinued Lange 1 (pictured on the right)? Was this produced at any point (I think it was) or were the blue hands retrofitted? Other than the hands being different, are the dials the same? the stealth's dial is rhodium-plated, where-as the left looks whiter in color, maybe silver (looks like the same dial type as a RG lange1). what were production dates on this, was it limited in quantity?
any other info and scans would be very helpful, thanks!
Answer:
has a refference # 101.027X.
It is a redialed verion of the 101.027 which was WG, with Blue dial and WG hands, which from what I understand was not that popular, therefore this redialed verion was made. I have read that there were about 600 made, and according to the historical Lange prices it was produced from 2003-2004 only.
It has an argente dial and blued steel hands, also the roman numerals are printed. This I find makes for a very ledgible watch.

Answer:
Yes this is the same dial that was placed on a RG and a Yellow Gold Lange one, both of which are discontinued now.

Answer:

IIRC, production on this reference was discontinued on or about 1/1/2004.

Answer:
I think it was produced for several years, ending around 2003-4, and not just for a single year. This model was never published in the Lange catalog despite being widely available through dealers. In that regard, it's like the current RG Lange 1 with MOP guilloche dial (ref. 110.031).
