In that case, I think you want to weigh the differences to make a decision. |

Absolutely fair point. Was referring to watch collectors demographic in particular. In my experience most go on to add more than one Patek to their collection hence they could have added a Lange if they wished. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

But the fact remains that I found myself at the Patek Salon after purchasing the Lange... so obviously there are aspects it doesn’t cover. Very different watches. The Calatravas, especially the rounder ones like the 5227 or 5146 are very French in character, the Lange is very Teutonic. A good collection should have room for both without risk of repetition. If one can have only one though, the L1 is my preference. PS: personally decided in favor of a 5146g over a 5227r
