A. Lange & Sohne 165 Years - Homage To F.A. Lange Collection: Tourbograph "Pour le Merite," Lange 1 Tourbillon, And 1815 Moonphase Watches
Earlier this year A. Lange & Sohne announced a limited edition collection of (even more) decorated watches as homages of the 165th anniversary of their founder, Ferdinand Adolph (F.A.) Lange. In 1845 Mr. Lange moved from Dresden to the nearby small mountain town of Glashutte. As Lange likes to see it, history was then born!The 165 Years - Homage to F.A. Lange Collection includes three watches. They are not new watches per se, but done with unique treatment. Each on a new gold color called "honey gold." More on that in a sec. The watches each have guilloche engraved dials, which is rare for the brand these days.? First is the Tourbograph "Pour le Merite," then the Lange 1 Tourbillon, and finally the quite new 1815 Moonphase watch.Honey gold is a new 'invention' by Lange. It is a novel gold alloy that has a honey color to it. The warm look of the gold is unparalleled. It has a light brass look to it. Plus, it resembles the patina that the German silver (not actually silver) gets on i

Can these two Royal Oaks co-exist?
The Jumbo 15202 vs the RO 15400. In the same collection that is. I ever thought about flipping my 15400 for the Jumbo since the theory goes that the Jumbo is a more authentic and superior version of the two ROs and keeping the 15400 after acquiring the Jumbo will be redandunt. But now having compared them many times, I think they are actually rather different. The 15400 is probably concieved as a beefier and sportier version of the original RO while the Jumbo with its thin profile and elegant looks is considerably dressier. While arguable, I also think the 15400 has a newer / more advance movement and a more robust case design. So I think they can complement each other. Or am I off track? So what are your thoughts?

Leaning towards a planet ocean
I dig the contemporary look and reading about the 8500 movements seem to be pointing me towards the omega po 2011 when they come out. I cannot seem to find much info on the 8500 movement. But looking at both the rolex sub and the po, I like the way the po looks and feels. Funny since I was leaning towards a sub initially. Now it looks like the orange basel po caught my attention.

Which reference(s) is the 'must have' PAM?
It gets banded around that every Rolex collection 'must have' a Submariner. Personally, I find that difficult to disagree with; it's an iconic watch and a pretty awesome piece.Now, in your opinion, which reference should no Panerai enthusiast be without? If need be, break it down to one each from the Luminors and Radiomirs
