A. Lange & S?hne Lange 1 Tourbillon Handwerkskunst Celebrates 20 Years of Lange 1
Who says you can’t go home again? Horological history repeated itself last week at Dresden’s Royal Palace, where A. Lange & S?hne introduced the limited-edition Lange 1 Tourbillon Handwerkskunst, a watch made to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Saxon brand’s iconic Lange 1 watch, which debuted at the same venue two decades prior.October 24, 1994, marked the rebirth of the A. Lange & S?hne watch brand, founded in Glash��tte, in the German state of Saxony near Dresden, in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolphe Lange. Dormant since 1948, after the post-War occupation of East Germany by the Soviet Union, the brand was resurrected by the founder’s great grandson, Walter Lange, in the German reunification year of 1990.

Got my first AP!

New Patek (and a little-big addition)
After wandering the backstreets of independent makers like FPJ, Ferrier, and Moser, I've returned to the old reliable, and in my humble opinion, still the standard setter. I admit to being a little blas�� about my 5205 and 5167 for a while now. But I think they just needed some more wrist-time as I've warmed considerably to the 5167 and am enjoying the 5205G again. So that lead me to pick up one my old desirables - the 5396G. Love it! Reminds me of one of my grails, the classic 3448, which sadly has increased in price over the years to quite ridiculous levels. Dressed it down on grey leather strap for now.Also, finally gave in to the Pam 47mm urge and picked a 424 no date. Black strap goes lovely with the polished case. 38mm and 47mm. Small and big delights!IMG_1295.jpgIMG_1300.jpgIMG_1302.jpg

Just came in today - 5167. If interested PM me.
I just saw today a 5167 that came in this morning at an AD. PM me if you are interested and I will be glad to share with you the AD and the watch manager who is a very nice person to deal with. Cheers, Bruce
