This made me chuckle
I love how every answer can be based on tradition when it is convenient.
Looks good 👍
Both those would help but I’d like a solution for the loss of detail when I upload and the image is rescaled 😕
That is a downside
But the upside is we at WPS host the images for everyone, globally, with great response time, on any kind of device, for free. Have a whiskey and you probably won’t notice. 😉
So much more interesting than a TOURBILLON!
I always like the chain in Lange's Pour Le Merite models!
Agreed... Would love to see more of the chain and fusee...
I asked this question when I was visiting the Lange factory about a decade ago and the response was 1, traditionally they're not supposed to have so many cutouts and 2, movement rigidity would've been slightly reduced. They are very uncompromising!
I agree with you Patrick. Shame Lange are so set in their ways. Just look at Ferdinand Berthoud and their previous release. The fusée and chain are on FULL display as they designed the movement architecture to show-off the F&C
Just look at these photos I took last summer during Geneva Watch Days with FB, the movement is NEXT LEVEL but so is the price !! 😜 ...
Now that's a gorgeous machine...
Double sets of pallet forks on the escapement too. What a cool watch in more than one way.
And a little thinner! AND A LOT LESS EXPENSIVE!
I wonder what else Chopard will do with the brand... The LUC is already so good. But this Ferdinand Berthoud is a whole different level.
KF is indeed a very nice guy...
I still remember having dinner in his personal home! What a nice guy to invite me and a group of buddies to his personal home! The children came into the dining room around 8:30Pm to say goodnight. I really can't wait for them to make an Alpine Eagle that...
I don't know him as well most likely but he made a great impression on me for sure. As for the Alpine Eagle, I do agree that an ultra thin model with a LUC 1.96 or similar and a guilloché dial from Metalem 😉
And why not an exotic metal like tantalum or platinum 😉
Perfect... We need to bring our recommendations to someone at Chopard as soon as possible...
LUC 1.96, check; a special dial, check; and some sort of special material, check. That'd be perfection.
I have friends who work at Chopard in Geneva and Monaco so would be easy to drop some hints. The problem is if they will take them or not😂🤣...
Maybe discussing directly with KFS would give us a better chance 🤔😁
They actually have team members who read the CHOPARD section of our website. We should voice our opinions there sometime...
Unfortunately, I'm not close enough to KFS to just call him up. He'd be like, "remind me again, who is this?"
Not a bad idea to voice it in the Chopard section but like I said, I do have access to KFS as he is often in Monaco and my friend speaks directly with him, all things Ferdinand Berthoud 😉😁
He was one of the reasons I was invited to Geneva Watch Days last summer 😜
Sounds good!
More good competition of excellent watch product is a good thing! Wait a minute... It's terrible for my bank account.
This made me chuckle

Not bad for a start 🤣🤣
👍 well done my friend 👏👏👏 Big congrats on the pics and... on the watch ! Beautiful ALS 🤩
Terrific shots, Justin!
I really like that the swan's neck regulator doesn't obscure the engravings on this model!
Ah ok, I already posted 2 photos earlier but maybe you replied after I posted the photos. See below 😉
Got it on Amazon but there are also a dozen others. I just went by the ratings and chose this one. I liked the fact it was 100mm equivalent to a DSLR which allows you to back off a but to let in more light 👍 Apexel Objectif Macro HD à... www.amazon...
