In short: the 1500L Horsebit has a narrow vertical rectangular case with the Horsebit clasp; the 1900L is square; the 1400L is round, almost always with a mother-of-pearl dial; the 9000 series is round and two-tone. But the difference you actually feel on the wrist is another one: the first three are nearly always rigid bangles — circles of fixed size — while the 9000 series has a link bracelet that can be shortened. Before choosing the model, it is worth knowing which of the two suits you.
The list updates itself: it shows only what is available right now, with case shape, bracelet type and price range.
A rigid bangle cannot be tightened or widened: it is a closed circle. If it is more than a centimetre larger than the wrist it rotates, and the dial ends up underneath. That is why every listing gives the maximum circumference, measured by hand, and why entering your wrist once makes every watch in the catalogue mark itself.
A link bracelet, by contrast, can be shortened by any watchmaker in ten minutes. Lengthening is the hard part, because original links are no longer made: it is better to start from a piece with a generous circumference.

Within each family, price differences come from the dial and the finish. Mother-of-pearl dials and versions with the repeated GG monogram turn up less often than black or silver ones. Total gold versions are plated, not solid gold, and their value depends a great deal on how well the plating has survived: on the edges and the caseback it cannot be restored without losing originality.
The case shape: the 1500L is a narrow vertical rectangle with the Horsebit motif on the bangle clasp; the 1900L is square, 20 mm. Both nearly always come on a rigid bangle, so they have to be the right size from the start.
No. It is a closed circle of fixed size: it cannot be tightened or widened. The only choice is to take the right size. That is why we give the maximum circumference of every piece.
No, they are gold-plated steel. In our listings we always write «gold plate» and never «gold»: it is a difference of substance, not of wording, and it shows in the price.
The steel 1900L Quadrato: a small case, no plating to wear away, a shape that sits under a sleeve. Plated versions and mother-of-pearl dials ask for a little more care.
