it seems to be more and more like that.

could it be that the crowd that got interested in Rolex 5 years ago moved on to AP+Patek 3 years ago and now is ready for Lange, etc. ..??

my thesis is however that a watch only "works" if there is a remote chance that the good looking law graduate girl at the cocktail bar can tell a Lange. I am convinced that is the secret behind Rolex + APs success with mid 30's-50's guys, only 5% of them buy the watches for appreciation of watch nerd...aehm connoisseurs

I uh…hate to be the one to break it to you, but I think she’s probably not a recent ‘law school grad’…lol.
