May I?

When I purchased mine in 1994, black dial was in, kind of like salmon and green today. At the time Black dial came with diamonds especially for platinum case, so diamonds or not,


I wanted a black dial.
It was and still is a rare watch, well proportioned and pretty nice layout on the dial.

Beautiful 5970.

I thought the platinum version of this watch came at the end of the cycle for the 5970. Maybe in 2004? I love the diamond markers.

You meant the 3970?

 
 By: amanico : December 18th, 2022-01:00

Yes Nico. Thanks. I stand corrected.

I love the 3970 I will own one someday soon hopefully. How is your Lange Perpetual doing? Will you post your impressions of the watch?

3970 is a fantastic watch ! πŸ‘

Superb example of the classic 3970

I always loved this watch but sadly for me the proportions don’t work on my wrist. If I were a safe Queen type of collector then I would undoubtedly have a 3970 in my collection. However your watch looks perfect on your wrist which is wonderful. In my boo...
