Yesterday I announced the new Richard Lange Tourbillon Pour le Mérite (click here to see the post) - several hours too early. For this I would like to apologise unreservedly to Lange Uhren. My mistake was embarrassing and thoroughly inconsiderate.
The embargo was clearly stated as 20 December 9 am GMT on the email announcement from Lange Uhren. I completely overlooked that and only noted the 20 December date embargo on the press release file itself, which I saved. Hence I posted it on 20 Dec GMT +8.
As a professional this would be unforgivable, but for amateur hack like myself it is even worse, because I actually like and respect the company, its products and the people.
This is acutely distressing for myself but this kind of public error deserves a public apology. Sorry to everyone at Lange Uhren.
I will find a hole to hide in now.
