Well, I listened to a Vacheron in platinum, and it sounded very well, too. But in general, platinum is not the best choice for a MR.
Lange & Sohne Richard Lange Minute Repeater, 2022.
For the pleasure of the eyes, and well, for the ears, too, even if it is not the best Minute Repeater I could hear. Photos taken at W and W, in 2022: Best, Nicolas ...
In my opinion....
as good as a Lange gets.... Love every single detail of it. Cheers, Filip
Excellent dimensions.
Also very cool to see the SUG-made case...a rarity with Lange these days...
Beautiful watch!
Do you have any guess what prevents it from sounding better? In your opinion is it about movement construction, or about case material and dimensions, or smth else? Thanks.
I've always read titanium and RG are better...
...but it's hard to resist the heft of PT.
Its the heft of Pt which reminds me of why its all worth it.
The other materials are fine on their own aspects, especially the innovative novelties. But at the end of the day when all is said and done, there is this absolute serenity that one feels by having a Pt masterpiece around your wrist.
whilst i have not had the pleasure to listen to many other Pt cased Minute Repeaters, the one time that i heard Patek's 5316P it did sounded better ( the Patek i mean)
As much as I hate to admit this hahah (You know how much Lange means to me ) Hence i was wondering if it is indeed a case that ALL Pt MR's are considered inferior in terms of its melody? I agree with you about those in Ti, or WG, RG as mentioned, but you ...
Sadly have to agree on this fact mon ami.
Probably one of the few, if not the only demerit on a Pt encased masterpiece?
I know what you mean about the tradeoff between acoustic quality and platinum.
I recall comparing the platinum ZW Striking Time with a the gold one. The gold one sounded noticeably better. But the weight, the heft, was absent. And of course, congrats on your beautiful Richard Lange Minute Repeater!
I got the chance to do this same test too my friend!
And I couldnt agree more with you! Indeed, the gold took the oscars in the music department. Thank you very much, and it's good to hear from you again after quite some time!
The Full Strike from Chopard in platinum due to
its construction sounds good whatever the material and I believe that in platinum it is among the best as it channels the sound even better. ...
I can sense your angle, sir! 😂
It's been a bittersweet ride here for us in the city. But I'm sure many here could chip in...
I was born and raised a Communist by two lovely parents in Europe many moons ago 😉
Now I run my company as a capitalist in NYC... ..and I'm good at deflecting 😉 That repeater drives me crazy, tbh...
You can say that again!
Apologies for a VERY unclear shot of mine. Was never good at taking movement shots! Enjoy though! ...
Merci beaucoup!
It sure is Nicolas, I am really proud of it, and feel so blessed to be able to own one out of the 50 there is. I do not know if they might decide to execute this MR in the other golds, as they did with the RL PLM, but perhaps when they do, the opera there...
