Rare chime! Fast Mitsubishi lifts in Hong Kong

Location: Singga Commercial Centre, 144-151 Connaught Road West, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong This was one of the places I found out about shortly after I flew back from my 2025 trip, and was kinda annoyed at myself for not finding these earlier. Not long after, they started modernising the lifts here, beginning with two high rise lifts and one low rise lift. After the mod was completed, they closed off the remaining one high rise lift and two low rise lifts for mod. By the time I came here, there were no more original passenger lifts, though the service lift was still original. I initially wasn't going to bother with these, but this particular lift caught my attention as it arrived at the 43rd floor. It had a rare 3-tone chime, of which the first tone is the same kind as Goldhill Plaza's carpark lift! The chime itself as a whole is different however. As several components of the old lifts were retained, the ride is still rough with lots of shaking and rattling, though that makes for a rather fun ride. Would have been so much better if these were left original, but the mod itself is not bad given it has the rare chime.
