Very interesting watch. Just too bad they had to be made to wage war.

Quote:
no. reason is the IWC … at 25.OOO euro it's way too much for me. A PERFECT Lange is half the price and a good example will cost you between euro 8 and 10K. Cheapest pieces are around 6K but than you might expect an ugly dial or hands or replaced parts or non matching numbers. Laco Stowa and Wempe fetch between euro 4 and 6K so pretty affordable. Maybe I want to add a Stowa one day but I'm not interested in the Wempe and like said, the IWC is much too expensive. Strange because I think the Lange is more interesting than the IWC. Probably because IWC 's big seller is the Big Pilot. If Lange would ever decide to remake this as a 45m sportswatch things might change
