I totally agree, for me the trinity is AP, PP and ALS, even if Lange is not independent but I thought that VC was independent, it's the first time I hear they are part of Richemont, shocker

To the various finishing comments earlier in the thread, I personally rank them as follows (3rd tier still being great!):

1st tier: Dufour, Voutilainen, Ferrier etc.
2nd tier: Lange
3rd tier: PP*, AP, VC

*for Patek I refer to the 'normal' models; I'm not so familiar with grand comps and the like but have heard the finishing quality is better.

Yes basically it's like this, the 3 last are still very good but not something extraordinary

This new model is a step back IMO. I'm a fan of the previous model dial.. Though the caseback is a nice addition.

I really like these new ones, especially the one with the 222 and the chrono in blue, that latter one might end up on my wrist eventually.

That watch is amazing, the added versatility of the bracelet / strap change is making me want one!
