Hi all

Deciding between these 2 as my only gold watch in my collection. I know they are not similar but this what I am choosing between. The Lange 1815 didn't really do it for me.

Which do you like better and why?

My opinion so far is the Patek as I love everything about it. The Lange seems to provide a lot more though but am worried about its future commercial value/brand value which I have to consider when spending this much.

Cheers

You couldn't have chosen two more different watches... The Lange is on a different level, obviously.

subtona · 22 July 2015, 08:05 PM

Patek is the dress watch

The ALS is something else.

Israguard · 22 July 2015, 08:30 PM

Man that Lange is so beautiful.. Wow

Techno · 22 July 2015, 08:49 PM

Given a choice and I would choose Lange.
It is so much better than the plain PATEK.
Despite the fact that PATEK swear by their watches go thru rigorous test and forever serviceable criteria.

HL65 · 22 July 2015, 08:51 PM

Lange much nicer IMHO.

i would hit on the lange all day long. Not feeling the 5119 though

capote · 22 July 2015, 09:31 PM

Lange all day. Lange 1 is modern and unique, the Calatrava is just another dress watch, its nice and all although the movement doesn't fit the case by a long shot.

cervantes · 22 July 2015, 09:38 PM

Lange, no doubt.

zama · 22 July 2015, 09:45 PM

Love mine, but I do like that dress Patek, the Lange has a lot more going on, ideally see if you can pick it up second hand I did.

Big difference in thickness and weight as well. Understand pricing similarity may be there.

regnant · 22 July 2015, 09:56 PM

A Lange Sohne because of unmistakable design and the way they set the dials in. Not to mention, it's great quality none the less than that of Patek Philippe

nick c · 22 July 2015, 09:57 PM

Lange much nicer

texex91 · 22 July 2015, 10:09 PM

Lange. Much more versatile watch to wear than the 5119 IMHO.

Techno · 22 July 2015, 10:43 PM

how much is this Lange watch?

mps354 · 22 July 2015, 10:45 PM

I prefer the Lange in this situation

jjnd08 · 22 July 2015, 10:49 PM

That Lange is soooo nice!

I'm also not a fan of that "fluted" bezel on the Patek.

Celter · 22 July 2015, 11:11 PM

The Lange. Both watches are icons, but the Lange is really something special.

ansharma · 22 July 2015, 11:31 PM

Thanks all - I tried this and loved it!

If you want a pure dress watch - then patek. Otherwise I would choose the Lange 1

watchwatcher · 23 July 2015, 01:52 AM

Amazing! That's my vote unless you want a straight up dress watch. The PP looks dressier, IMO.

very very nice indeed

nilfire77 · 23 July 2015, 02:13 AM

Visually, you can see the sublime quality of a Lange from a mile. But for a PP, you need to get closer....

diracpoint · 23 July 2015, 04:23 AM

I prefer the Lange, especially the newer moonphase version:

Jocke · 23 July 2015, 05:34 AM

As I told you the small secondhand at the PP looks wrong IMHO and the Lange 1 is awesome.

My grail at the moment is the first automatic Lange1 Daymatic in Platin, I love the new place of the date window.

The backside.

This is porn.

Ferdelious · 23 July 2015, 05:45 AM

Lange by far.
