Hands-On: With the A. Lange & S?hne Richard Lange Tourbillon "Pour le Merite" (VIDEO)
One of the coolest tourbillons we saw at SIHH in January was A. Lange & Sohne's Richard Lange Tourbillon "Pour le Merite."? This is the watch, designed after a 19th century pocketwatch (pictured below), that has a dial that is only fully visible during half of the day.? The point of the disappearing dial? Simple, really. The folks at ALS just want the wearer of this Pour le Merite to be able to view the fantastic tourbillon that he or she is paying for.The Richard Lange Tourbillon is a regulator, with the minutes being displayed on the top dial while hours on bottom right, seconds via the tourbillon at bottom left. During the hours of 12-6, half of the hour dial is missing to display the full tourbillon.? Once the watch hits 6, the dial pops back into place and a full circle is displayed again.? As this is a "poure le merite" watch, it is driven by a fus¨¦e and chain transmission to ensure regular power delivery while the watch is being wound and as it works through its power reserve.On

Rolex Exhibition Case Back
I was taken aback when I saw that Mr. Holbrook had replaced this Daytona case back with a sapphire one, but I have to admit that with the Rolex movement, it does look good, so I got to wondering.Does Rolex now or have they ever offered a exhibition-back watch?

VERY Interesting and SCARY article regarding Old Luminescent watches/clocks
Reading an article about old luminescent watches and thought some might be interested....some quotes from the article.....At that time, at least in the US, radioluminescent paint saw little application...in Europe, especially Switzerland, things were different"there were so many radium painters that it was common to recognize them on the streets because of the glow around them: their hair sparkled almost like a halo."April 1920 Issue of Scientific American noted that more than 4,000,000 watches and clocks......produced using radium-containing...paint. original practice of using the mouth to put a point on a brush...The paint so wiped off the brush was swallowed."....tipping the brushes was not something the dial painters just decided to do. in some plants they were actually trained how to do it. This article is very interesting and scary what workers and the general public were exposed to regarding radioactive materialsany way if interested here is the link- Radioluminescent PaintRadio

400 watches - now that's a collection!....
Local lawyer, Greg King has 400 watches in his collection.Personally I can't recognise a single one from this photo which appeared in yesterday's paper.Anyone want to have a guess at any of the pictured watches? Sorry about the poor picture quality, it's hard to scan the newspaper, and this pic did not appear in the online version.

How does this fit? Need your expert help
Hi I'm completely new to the panerai world and would like to get your expert opinion. I have 6.75 wrists and normally wear Rolexes (Daytona, BLNR, Seadweller4000). So I'm used to 40mm. What your thoughts on size on my wrist with these two PAMsToo big for my wrists? I know PAMs are supposed to look big. Maybe I'm just too used to Rolex. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
