Greetings, fellow watch connoisseurs!
I am new here and have a couple of questions that I hope others will be able to shed some light on. I am interested in acquiring either a Lange 1 or a Grand Lange 1 and am thinking that buying pre-owned from a reputable source would be a good strategy for my first Lange. This brings to mind the following questions:
Do A. Lange watches depreciate more than other high end brands?
Is 30-40% depreciation between new and pre-owned typical for high end watches across the board?
If you buy a pre-owned Lange and want to have it cleaned, lubricated and adjusted, what does that kind of service cost (for example) for a Lange 1 or Grand Lange 1 from a reputable watchmaker?
Any insight into these issues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
