Ken, nobody write a report like you!!!!!
I was at the event last night, but found it much more enjoyable to experience it through Ken's great photos and descriptions! Sort of like watching a football game at the stadium while listening to the commentators on the TV! Ken, thanks for all the hard work and for an "inside" look at the world of Lange PLM.
Thanks, Jeff.

Interesting to see cool exhibits like the giant chain. The variety of ALS owned by the people are amazing. The pair couple Lange 1 really nice! Did you manage to record the 'ding-ding' of the working Hour Striker? Wow! Patrick_Y's timing is extremely accu...
Thanks! The Striker came on the last day and it was so....
.. crowded and noisy, so I gave up recording or taping. I will try to do it one day soon! It was beautiful sound, a little low volume, though. But, it did not disappoint us. Ken
That is "Little" Lange 1 Darth - must fit your wife's wrist?

Excellent report that captured the event
I have Peter's book, which I am reading or browsing at 4 pages every other day, so I don't finish it too fast! Slow digestion. His photography skills is just astounding, esp when he explain how he does the macro and the printing process. Best, Horo
Err......
All good things please multiply 200%, and all bad things discount 75%.... - Best, Horo
PLM: certainly not for the merits of the mainspring used
First a big thank you for a very enjoyable read with many none the less detailed pictures. The picture with the fusee held by a pair of forceps is for me the most informative one as it showes what I was thinking about the mainspring used in the PLMs: it i...

You set the benchmark for reporting Ken!
Especially for these Lange events in Tokyo. They are probably by far the best anywhere in the world! The depth & enthusiams of the collectors there and the rare pieces that we see are astounding! The people at ALS no doubt also realize this. Thanks for ca...
No, the other way around :-)
Lange sets the benchmark of having these events. I am always impressed - ALS logos everywhere - door, signage, windows, I mean everywhere - they almost remodel the joint (higher-end restaurant) into the "House of Lange" over night. I just try to take good...

You were most fortunate to have such an awesome group in Tokyo. Truly a group with a tremendous amount of passion and appreciation for the brand Lange.
