Audemars Piguet: The curious customuer service of the AP Paris boutique

Horological Meandering: Chronograph : the venerable Lemania and the others...

Dear all, What do you think of the venerable Lemania movement (picture below) compared with the more recent movements from Patek or Lange ?

A. Lange & Söhne: A few more questions if you allow...

Dear all, May I ask a few more question ? Thanks ! Does the 1815 feature this famous Lange in-house hairspring ? Also, I find it strange that the Dato is far more thought after than the 1815. After trying both I feel the 1815 is much nicer. But of course, this is just a matter of taste. Finally, how

A. Lange & Söhne: Please educate me...

... also, reading the different posts, I see discussions on a possible improvement of the Date. Is it something Lange is working on ? Is the 1815 chronograph "better" (on a purely technical level, I mean) ? Do you think langmatik perpetual upgrades are also considered ? THANKS !

Patek Philippe: About the 5170J

Dear friends, What do you think about the dial of the 5170J ? The text "gradue pour 15 pulsations" means that this is a doctor's watch. Wouldn't those of you who are not doctors feel concerned about wearing a watch designed for a specific job ??? Thanks.
