Collection
samwan triumphantly shares his three-year quest for the discontinued A. Lange & Söhne Cabaret in platinum, reference 107.035. His post celebrates the acquisition of this rare timepiece, offering a detailed look at its condition and how it fits into his impressive collection.
It took me three years to hunt down this watch - the discontinued A Lange & Sohne Cabaret platin reference 107.035
I recently found one on the Internet for sale at a reasonable price. After some due diligence and checking of references, I made the plunge. The shipment took a few days and today....the anxiety is over 
The watch was manufactured circa 2000 but is in mint condition
A family portrait - sorry for the mug shot - there are 4 pieces in platinum and one in WG
The case measures 36.5mm x 26 mm. Originally I was worried that it might be too long for my wrist but when I try it, it fits just fine.
The only question remains....is Nicolas ever going to get his? :P

The A. Lange & Söhne Cabaret reference 107.035 represents a distinctive rectangular offering within the brand's catalog, notable for its unique case shape and the integration of a large date complication. This particular reference, crafted in platinum, was produced in limited numbers and has since been discontinued, contributing to its appeal among collectors seeking less common Lange models. Its design deviates from the more prevalent round cases, providing an alternative aesthetic for those who appreciate a different form factor while retaining the brand's characteristic finishing and mechanical integrity.
This Cabaret model features a platinum case measuring 36.5mm by 26mm. It houses a manually wound movement, specifically the Lange caliber L931.3, which is visible through a sapphire crystal case back. The watch is equipped with a power reserve of 42 hours. The dial is presented in a silver color, complemented by applied Roman numerals and baton markers. The front crystal is also sapphire, ensuring durability and clarity.
For collectors, the reference 107.035 is significant due to its platinum construction and the relative rarity of the Cabaret line, especially in this metal. It appeals to those who value the technical sophistication of A. Lange & Söhne combined with a more understated and classic rectangular design. The presence of a large date display is a signature Lange complication, further enhancing its desirability. This reference is often sought after by enthusiasts looking to diversify their collections with a unique and discontinued piece from the brand.
Congratulation on your latest catch! Sam
