Happily for me
...the owner of this watch is very generous in inviting me to wear his watches when I have them for photo sessions. I try not to abuse the privilege,and heaven forbid that I should scratch one of these beauties!
Maybe some day I will find a way to own one, but for now I'll be satisfied with these enjoyable baby-sitting opportunities.
Thanks,
Gary
PLM photos
Greetings to all! Took these photos of the lovely RL PLM (property of a Gentleman Purist) a few months ago but haven't posted them here previously: A very enjoyable piece to photograph. Thanks to my good friend for the loan! Best, Gary G...
This watch is really hard to take in picture.
To fully appreciate the depth of the enamel dial, and to avoid reflections... Superb job, my friend. By far the nicest photos I've ever seen on this PLM! Best, and thanks. Nicolas
Ditto
I'd give my right arm to have this piece. Gary, Nicolas said it all. Beautiful work. Joe
Thanks 4Js!
The good news is that you would still have your left arm to put the watch on Seriously, this is a fairly important piece of kit -- that chain and fusee really put some pop into a simple looking watch! Best, Gary
Thank you, Nicolas!
Sorry that I didn't respond sooner, but I was conserving posts trying to hit my Dufour delivery exactly on 2000... I found this piece OK to photograph -- I agree with you that the dial side is tricky, and required a fair number of set-ups before I found a...
That is the interesting thing, with Photography.
It also helps you to better know the watch you're taking picutres of... Thanks for your answer, Gary. Best, Nicolas
Sublime!
I love it when people take such beautiful shots of a very well deserved piece! You should pull on it Gary! Stephen

spetacular pictures
of a wonderful piece! Thanks! Must have been hard to return that loan! Best Andreas
Not easy to give it back, Andreas!
There is always a bit of a sigh of relief at returning such a valuable item safely to its owner, but it was a real treat to have this one for a few days Best, Gary
The best picture I've seen on a Richard Lange PLM!
I love this watch in every aspect Understated on the outside but very complex inside Many fine details that doesn't scream out loud Thanks for sharing Gary! Always enjoyed your photographs Sam
Glad you liked the photos, Sam!
This one was a treat to photograph, and I was particularly pleased with that first movement shot -- came out pretty well. Thanks, Gary
This and the simplicity
I don't know if there were more amazing simple watch ever done... I don't see for the moment. (maybe the 1815 moonphase Pt which I have a crush for). thanks for sharing Francois
Simple, and yet
...so complex! A loupe view of the fusee and chain just leaves one breathless... Best, Gary
Thanks, Patrick!
I will try to drop by and see you sometime soon -- would be great to discuss things Lange. Best, Gary
Great photos, haven't had the pleasure
of seeing one in the metal but I admire the simplicity of the dial and the details of the movement.
That movement.........
I handled the RG model in Harrods recently. It is a sublime watch.
I'm a RG guy
...and in this watch I think I might actually like the RG a little better than the PT! Not the case for all watches for me (or even Langes -- I strongly prefer the PT Double Split to the RG version) -- but with the enamel dial the RG adds a bit of warmth ...
Thanks, Ed
It's a pretty unassuming watch as seen from the front, but has real presence -- and the movement is gorgeous, as we've come to expect from Lange. Best, Gary
Has great wrist presence
And in PT has a fair amount of mass as well! Glad you enjoyed the photos. Best, Gary
Pure excellence from Lange...
captured vividly on some crystal clear pictures. Many thanks for posting such enjoyable pictures, where one can switch off for a moment and indulge on an amazing Lange. Moritz
Thanks for your message, Moritz
It's a real pleasure for me to be able to investigate lovely pieces like this through the lens, and I'm always pleased when you and others like the results as well. Thanks again, Gary
In the words of Buzz Lightyear..
..."I could sure use one of those" Probably my most favourite of time only watches.... Fabulous photos of the movement. The finishing reminded me in no way at all of the finishing we achieved in Plans les Ouates in January! Best regards Gary
How did I miss this!!!
Sceptical at first,......I am a believer now after I handled one....this is THE lange to have....shame,I mean...shame I cannot have one. Your pics are the best so far I ve seen of this marvel. Mo
