Introducing The A. Lange & S?hne Richard Lange Tourbillon "Pour le M��rite," Now In White Gold (Live Pictures, Pricing)
Guten Tag again! A. Lange & S?hne sure is on a special-edition roll. We recently brought you the Langematik Perpetual in white gold, and we're happy to say that the Richard Lange Tourbillon "Pour le M��rite" is getting the same treatment. These new editions are exciting because they give us another chance to take detailed looks at what makes these watches great. So, let's look on. 2 OF 18 Firstly, the dial is argent��-colored solid-silver. This creates a noticeable contrast to the blued-steel hands and virtually flawless printing of the overlaying subdials. The case, in?finely polished gold with curved lugs, measures in at 41.9 mm by 12.2 mm. Some might think it too wide, but the design actually lives up to the model's lineage. The layout of the subsidiary dials is such that they are centered on the corners of an isosceles triangle.Here's an abridged Lange history lesson. In late-18th-century Dresden, Johann Heinrich Seyffert was known as a principal pioneer of Saxon watchm

Thoughts On The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra-Thin Jubilee (The Thinnest Mechanical Watch In The Wor
2013 is Jaeger-LeCoultre's 180th anniversary, and to celebrate they have presented a "Jubilee" collection.? The most impressive of this trio of watches is the Gyrotourbillon Three, which we showed you in great detail in episode three of the Road To Basel.? The second watch in this Jubilee set is the cylindrical tourbillon with perpetual calendar.? It's definitely an amazing piece, too.? But to me, the most interesting watch in Jaeger-LeCoultre's 180th anniversary Jubilee set is one of the most simple, clean watches JLC has made in a long time.? In fact, it might set the new standard for complete elegance.? Actually, the Master Ultra-Thin Jubilee does literally set a new standard for something - it is the thinnest mechanical watch on earth, with case thickness of just 4.05mm. ?Read on for more about this incredible watch. 2 OF 27 The MUT Jubilee continues with a theme set forth by such awesome watches as the MUT Moonphase, and this year's truly superb MUT Perpetual Calenda

Advice on how to buy a Patek
Hello,I am looking to buy a Patek for myself fairly soon... probably a ?20k-?30k model depending which model I decide to go for, deciding between the more dressy sans-complication, calatrava or a slightly less elegant, but more exciting annual calendar.I saw that a couple of retailers can sell to me tax-free (20% VAT taken off) so long as I am having it shipped to an address in Switzerland, which I could do... though it would be a hassle as I live and work in London! Alternatively Watches of Switzerland offer interest free finance for up to 3yrs... which on a ?20k watch is quite valuable and is more convenient for me. I always buy my Rolexes in the 2nd hand market, but the market doesn't seem to be so big for Patek... not the newer models in any case, and the discounts are not even that great.As such I'm looking for advice of the best way to purchase a Patek, go for the VAT-free way, take interest free credit or try and sit it out for a used deal to come up... or indeed any other solut

GMT2 Date Change Question
So... I tried searching and couldn't find an answer.. When setting the date on my BLNR it would change dates when I advance the hour hand pass 11pm instead of 12pm.. It only does it if my minute hand is past 30.. if the minute hand is before 30 it will change dates after I pass 12pm. Is this normal?
