Wishing they do something in honey gold (not likely, all white gold so far), a white/blue Zeitwerk, an enamel dial or MOP, or something completely new for the last installment! Best, Manuel
... the month indications between September and January drive me crazy, even though there may be some traditional reasons for printing them this way. To me it’s very distracting. Everything else looks gorgeous. Cheers Henrik
That outer disc rotates within the perimeter of the rehaut, so September through January would otherwise be upside down when indicated at the 6 o'clock marker. Based on this design architecture, I think Sep to Jan has to read the current way to make any sense.
For this particular piece, they should do a non tourbillon version
But I am actually getting a little fatigued thinking of 10 Lange 1 anniversary models all in white gold with blue printing. Hope they change it up somehow.
...to a certain point. The 'all blue' is very bland...too monochromatic. There is no contrast in any of these models. That said, I've seen the 'normal' PC Tourbillon in person and it is outstanding. If I had the funds it would be in the mix of favorites to own.
