What a pair.......
These two IMO are very beautiful looking watches and the workmanship is absolutely stunning.
The movement on the Lange & Sohne, is without any doubt,probably the finest one that I have actually seen. If you had a choice, which one would you prefer and why? I would be very interested in your answers. Many thanks

both are amazing and stunning timepieces..both watches have very different personalities...although on the surface one could say they are expensive classy watches with leather straps, but looking at them, I find them to be very different personalities...the PP is rather dressy and Lange is very sporty..this sportiness comes with great elegance no doubt, but to me, very humbly, that PP says 'I rule the world!' and that Lange says "i am a man on the move' and 'I am very sporty' yet very elegant..both great timepieces and very very beautiful..you are a very lucky man to have both...sheer classy stuff!
beyond doubt, both reflect great taste. |

a humble suggestion, try brown strap on the PP..I think it will be a killer combo! :)

The PP did come with a brown strap, but neither my wife or I liked it. So the AD replaced it with black strap for no charge.

I love A. Lange & Sohne watches but, I would prefer the Patek as a choice between the two of these watches. I love the movement on the Lange but the Patek is more functional with the Annual Calendar. I have no use for a chronograph as I already have one with my RGM. The Annual Calendar is very useful for determining the day, date, month, moonphase, etc.
Beautiful watches. Terry Newton

The lange. Its gorgeous, but manual wind and less usefull features. Still take it over the Patek.

The Patek, hands down. I love Lange watches, just not this one.

the PP. I'm not fond of the green hands of the Lange.
