Great images, both great watches which would make it a hard choice, especially because one has a date and the other does not. If I as wanting a Chronograph, I would go for the Patek.

[frostie]

Great pics both of them are great. It's a bit hard to choose but i would go with the patek

[Zack]

A. Lange & Sohne for me! I'm not a big gold fan!

Unless it's Purple and Gold....GEAUX TIGERS! :chuckle:

[frostie]

:lol:

[Destroy]

Too easy, Patek.

[SLRdude]

Lange for me.
. :thumbsup:

[alglez]

man thats really hard to decide
patek! oh no lange! no patek damn lange I dont know both!!!!

[Jedi]

Lange... it's got a date and the black face is sooooo slick...

[Scooby]

Lange for me. Like the big date as opposed to no date and the romans better than the arabics.

[time]

I love the Lange movement better! PP has the design!

[applebook]

Based purely on aesthetics, I'd choose the Patek. :bye:

[vukotab]

Both of them!Damn,what a watches!!!
Well,perhaps I like Pathek a little bit more...

[Terry Newton]

The Lange is a fabulously beautiful, classy movement. The Patek is awesome as well but the Lange display beats the Patek and the Patek front of the watch beats the Lange.

I got it! They both win :chuckle::chuckle::chuckle:

Awesome watches. They are both lottery winning watches in my opinion.

L & S by a country mile. The Patek looks like the holes for the sub dials were an afterthought.

[unknown]

the Patek is imo BY FAR the best looking of those 2
Could be the most beautifull chronograph ever made

The Lange's movement is nicer but the Pateks dial, case and size is just 100% perfect

[BigHat]

As a Lange owner I say Lange.

They are beautiful, accurate and bullet proof.

[Terry Newton]

I still want the Lange and Sohne. That has got to be one of the most interesting exhibition watches I have ever seen. I wonder how delicate it is? It sure has beautiful colors to it. I don't think I'd get anything done if I owned it. I would be staring at it for hours.

Absolutely with you on that one. It's such a beautiful watch.

From what I understand, this one has a nearly identical movement as the Patek, but at half the price. Quite a beauty!

[sub2004]

Patek fo me, that model is one of the ones i would love to get. Probably costs a fair bit.

[Jedi]

The 5070 model shown in this thread is now discontinued as of Basel '08 and is available only in Platinum.

[llamaofdoom]

Lange has a more beautiful movement, but the Patek dial is an absolute classic.

[TDH]

Patek in a heartbeat :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

[topcat30093]

They are both beautiful watches and very hard to choice between.
But I would prefer to have a date if I had the choice.
So it would be the Lange.
Saying all of this though, I would like to own a PP at some time.

[simplicity]

Patek of course: sober,classic, timeless , but Dato is a great watch

[MAC4130]

The Datograph is one of my all time favorite watches! The movement just looks so elaborate more than that of Patek!
I say The Lange!!!

[Tony-GB]

Patek :thumbsup:

[unknown]

This watch is a zillion times better looking than a Datograph

[Zman86]

Lange

[time]

My op.: LANGE has the much better movement. It has soul and is just superb! The PP movement is "just" a "modified" Lemania...but still lovely. Since I am a very conservative young guy, I still want the Patek!

[ocwatching]

5070P!..not a fan of the G

and not a fan of the $90k price...

[cody p]

Lange has a more beautiful movement, but the Patek dial is an absolute classic.

agree. but if i'm forced to choose i go with the pp.

[jameshe]

A. Lange & Sohne for me :cheers:

[Roxas]

A. Lange & Sohne. Datograph is so beautiful.

[Starwalker]

agree. but if i'm forced to choose i go with the pp.

x2!

[unknown]

this is by far the nicest :-)

[hennabav]

I think I would have to go with the Patek...just a timeless perfection!! It's on the edge of sporty yet elegant.

[SteelerFan65]

I would take the Patek all day long. As for moevements--they are not alike. One is a Lemania and one is an in house movement made by A Lange & Sohne. The 5070 is a much rarer watch and PP is still the king of watches! As much as I love Lange--the Patek is my choice!

In platinum the 5070 is one the most beautiful watches ever produced. I would love to own one!!! :read:

[greekbum]

of the 2 for me would be the A. Lange & Sohne

[Paul7039]

The Patek is beautiful and rare. However, the Datograph is, in my opinion, more beautiful and has the in-house movement.

A. Lange & Sohne.:thumbsup:
The date is always a great thing to have and missed when not had.

[The GMT Master]

The Datograph is my all-time grail watch. I would give my left testicle to have one!

[mdtddd2007]

hard choice, but i 'll pick PP.

[versusone]

The Datograph!

[Sarajevo]

I love the Lange movement better! PP has the design!

Agree 100%

[honeybear]

I like the Patek, but would prefer the more subtle look of it in white gold. I agree that the Lange has a wonderful movement, and the forum members might feel differently if you posted the one with the white dial. The blue dial is a bit too busy for my taste.

[SteelerFan65]

Dato has black dial not blue......Patek still the one!

[TSW]

Both look great, but Lange would get My vote!

[dysondiver]

wish i had the problem ,, pp.

[johnbeth]

Im choosing Patek.... I could be bias! :banghead: :chuckle:

[horseco]

Patek

[MrJ320]

Love the Lange

[DiamondJack]

Datograph for me without hesitation..... :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Patek just looks a little dated and old fashioned for my tastes whereas the ALS has something quite contemporary about it even if a similar style.

[topcat30093]

As much I like Patek Philippe.:thumbsup:

In this case the Datograph would be my choice.

The movement imo is the best in the business, I could wear this watch upside down, just to see the movement.:joy:

How could you!? You were my hero and my mentor! I feel betrayed! :crying::rofl::justkiddi

I'm choosing the Patek, it looks nicer to me and I always had a thing for yellow gold.

[Rsvrider]

Lang, the Patek missed the mark by placing the sub dials where they did. Not really liking how the 2-4-10-8 numbers are chopped. Love the second hand detail on the Lang and that the dial includes a date window. Mixed emotions about the lume on the hands, sporty?

Same here.

[directioneng]

There are many posts on the Forum where the finish on a Rolex movement has been deemed not to be worthy of a clear caseback but IMO the Patek movement on this model is about the same quality.
Pretty average finish for the $$'s.

The L & S movement on the other hand looks upmarket.

[SteelerFan65]

As much as I like the PP - especially the platinum-the Dato for the money works IMHO. Here is my old outdated one given the new release. :crying:

Patek, the dial just looks so sweet.

[cwilson13]

5070 all day long...but it has to be the P and not the G.
