Yes I’m aware of the numbers but putting the demand/supply those watches still far outpace the Lange. Not even close.

I don’t even know anyone who wants one and I spend the majority of my free time talking to watch geeks online.

I’m glad you are enjoying yours and I am not trying to say either the 5711 or a Daytona is a better watch. I’m just speaking to marketability which honestly shouldn’t matter as this is collecting and not a business
