When three hands are enough...
I love the complications in my collection, but sometimes simple is good.
I bought these pieces this week after looking at both of them for over a year from respective AD's in Malaysia.
The Richard Lange came first with it's lovely rose gold case and dial and spectacular finished movement, and then the Speake-Marin Resilience in Steel with enamel dial. The only decision there (I had decided on steel vs. gold) for me was 42mm (I selected) vs. 38mm.
So, both are three hand pieces, one manual wind and the other automatic. Both quite different I think in the feelings they evoke.

You have great taste!
Both are simple yet elegant. They are at the top of my list as well when it comes to three hand watches. Enjoy! Dave
Superb.
The RL is understated elegance. I miss my RL platinum dearly. How do you find the 42mm Peter speake Marin? Size wise? OpC
I find the size OK....
I find the size OK. I think at 40mm it might be even better. In my opinion the substantial lug design looks a bit big on the 38 mm case and more balanced on the 42mm. Sent from my iPad On 17 Mar, 2013, at 10:29,
Double congratulations. A very nice pair you got.
The RL is certainly not the watch we most often discuss, but when you lok at its movement, you can't resist. As for the PSM, the dial is just my taste. Very nice duo! Best, Nicolas
Can't go wrong....
....with any of these, and to have both is a coup! Great catch of two very elegant and beautiful watches. Richard
Great pair and I agree.
The stainless steel Chronoswiss, Blancpain and VC are no longer with me. Mel ...
