Best, Volker

so it’s probably more practical to get the rose gold.

Lange does not plate WG with rhodium, where Patek does

non-rhodinated „grey“ gold. Lange having rhodium-plated cases becomes apparent when you see a scratched Lange case.

No message body

On Lange's website is no mentioning of rhodium plating. The website is quite detailed about refurbishing the cases: it is even mentioning the use of a rotating polisher out of wool.

Apart from that any model is a winner!

In my early collecting days, I bought both white metals (SS, WG & PT) and colored metals (YG & RG). Over time, I realized that I wore white metals much more, not because I didn't like the RG or YG, but mainly because they did not match my outfits ...
