ALS @ SWA ( the Watches) Part 2/2

Oct 11, 2007,03:13 AM
 

 Anthony grabbed a glass of juice to quench his thirst.  Well, he rejected a beer !  Reason was on antibiotic?!


 Now that he's recharged, its private question time.


He disclosed when he was with R & P, he ordered a Lange 1!  

Someone asked, "how about now? And that you are in ALS?"....


Someone asked about Lange 31.  He explained the mainspring was first tested 3 years ago.  And the mainspring manufacturers were curious of what ALS was planning.  He kept it a secret from them.  They build 5 prototypes and he said, surprisingly all 5 works perfectly up till now!

Order is strong and the first piece is expected to be delivered early 2009.

 

After the questioning stopped, we were curious what was he wearing?  The TOURBOGRAPH "Pour le Merite" !!!

He still has another one on his left wrist -  Lange 1 Timezone.  How about the legs?  He said could not show us!  ;-)

Enjoy the pics of the TOURBOGRAPH!







Stunning mechanics.  Very beautiful!  It is the 0/51 !  Lucky man! Though Anthony mentioned it is a prototype, it is fully decorated.



















 

Someone took the opportunity to wear it! 








Yes, Mr Laurence Gwee... he hoped Anthony forgot to claim it back from him.


 



Guessed whose watch is this?


Its Patrick Tan's, the Principal of SWA.

 

 Another gorgeous piece.


































That's it .
