Icon15 Help me choose my next nice watch! Daytona vs Lange 1 vs ROO 44

Like all 4 but can only pick 1 for now, which would you choose?

My AD has the YG ceramic 116518 with this awesome champagne/black dial on order in my oysterflex size, should get the call in a few weeks but feeling out other options. I have a RG Duometre as my only gold watch (so no more RG for now), always wanted a Lange 1 in white metal, but also missing my ROO a lot and the new Ti44 (or even the previous panda 44) both look great as well.... hard decisions..

With SIHH around the corner and the supposed unveiling from AP I'm tempted to wait, but having the itch now thanks to all the enablers here

Open to other suggestions as well, on strap only, no bracelets for now.

If you wear a tie I'd go with Lange.

Business casual can mean many things OP. If you're in a more youthful or perhaps sports-related business, the AP. If you're in a legal or health firm with a dress 'casual' atmosphere then the Lange. JMHO

Id go with the lange, the roo and rolex are too sporty for business attire but again, depends on your wrist size and what kind of business work youre doing. If youre worried about bangin up the watch then it’s down to the rolex or ROO.

If you're not wanting to wear a sport watch to the office then the Lange everytime.

If you're wearing anything but jeans to work, that Lange is hands down the way to go. The Lange is still great with jeans, but you could more easily switch then to Daytona or ROO.

tough choices. I don't care if I went to the office in speedos, Lange would still be my choice.

All great choices. Any I would treasure, but I would choose the Lange. It looks that bit more special.

If your arm can pull it off, Ti44 is made for you.

AP 44Ti without a doubt. One of my favorite watches in my collection!

Big fan of all three, but the AP 44 would be my first choice, a really finely finished and detailed watch. For dressier, I would go for the Lange MP version as the 1 fell a bit flat on my wrist, but you do have the Duometre already and two leather watches is activity restrictive. The YG (faux PN) is a very cool watch as well, so enjoy making the choice.

The Lange for me especially for a suit and tie. I’m not that fond of the YG Daytona.

Speaking as a woman: the Lange is a sexy watch, the other two, not so much IMNSHO.

The ROO is basically my grail so that'd be my choice
