New Lange 31 in Pink Gold
Lange is introducing a new pink gold version of the 31, the first mechanical watch to achieve a power reserve of 31 days. The movement is powered by two stacked mainspring barrels, each with a spring that is slightly more than 6 feet long. A constant-force escapement between the twin mainspring barrels and the going train assures that the balance receives an identical amount of energy every ten seconds, regardless of the state of wind of the springs. This much power takes up space, making the Lange 31 movement as large as some watches: 37.3 millimeters in diameter and 9.6 millimeters thick. This presented challenges to Lange’s designers. For example, on the dial alone, the designers considered more than 70 versions over 2 years. Tiny details, such as whether the hour markers should be a fraction of a millimeter longer or shorter, were considered.

Now I am waiting for a grey nato to put it on.

Brooks Brothers Watches, Reliable?
I was in Brooks Brothers (outlet) today and was checking out their watches. They have several models for around 200 dollars. The watches are Japanese quartz movements for the most part. I was curious if anyone has a BB watch or knows of anyone who purchased one. The sales rep said he had been hearing the watches were quite reliable, but then again he's a salesman for a reason. Anyone have any ideas about the quality of BB watches? Thanks.

Rose gold watch with platinum wedding band?
Anyone on here wear this combo? I am considering a couple of pateks, the 5127 and 5146. On both of these, I prefer the look of the rose gold to the white gold, particularly the dial-case contrast. I think the rose gold looks funny with my platinum band, however, and I don't want to swap out the band.Any thoughts would be appreciated.
