In Hong Kong, I was fortunate enough to be invited by Lange Singapore to join a cosy dinner hosted by Lange for their collectors in the region.
Mr Wilhelm Schmid hosted the dinner for us.

It was a great dinner with great food and wine, great company with very knowledgable collectors and mgt staff from Lange.
The novelties from W&W 2014 were showcased too and here are some pics to share .

Sorry I only had my iPhone with me and the dining room was dark. Hopefully  we can still see the guilloche of these 20th anniversary Lange 1 sets from the pics.
Special thanks to Michelle, Frank, Aun and Terrence from Lange Singapore and APAC for the fun company that night smile

Enjoy!

Cheers

And some pics of the food and drinks. Sigh... Life as a moderator is really hard ! :p
But after a whole day of running around the booths, such a nice dinner with friends and collectors really recharges me for the next day! smile

I just arrived in Singapore and am exhausted! Slept throughout the flight almost! I slept only 4 hours for the past 3 days with all those dinners, partying post dinner with friends and then posting articles after the partying! :p Going to zzzz the rest of today Cheers Robin

Great shots af the anniversary models

As I was expecting: the RG ones are fab! Interesting that the WG blue dialled looks nearly black indoors. Best Moritz

Thanks Moritz!

I wished I have a better camera. My iPhone is not great in darker rooms. Agree the blue dial WG version's blue color looks different in various lighting. Sometimes more blue, sometimes quite black/grey looking. Many stated the blue/WG version was their fav. My personal fav is the RG white dial version - classic eternal looks and the date window's color blends in with the dial color. I wonder why they didnt do a black or blue date window with white fonts like the Darth... that will be more specia
