Two favorites

The mainstays in my collection that will probably always be with me. Granted I don’t wear the 5711 much since I’m getting tired of seeing it all over the place, but it’s an amazing watch. The Lange is just amazing from the finish to the feel. It’s versatility surprised me.

Love them for very different reasons but at the end of the day I smile every time I put them ok. Can’t ask for anything more.

Very different, very nice. Some day Lange will get the love it deserves.

Nice. Couldn't agree more on the Lange.

I would have to agree my Lange 1815 is certainty up there. However it would be edged out by the 15202st and 3712a :)

Great watches, very different, but a nice pair. Agree that Lange is under appreciated. I think it is the current preference for sports watches over dress watches. Before I retired, I wore a suit everyday, so I am ok with dress watches.

Does the 15400st plots / strap width work for the 15202?

Yes it does. But if you have a smaller wrist I highly recommend a Rubber B strap (no conversion needed) and it doesn't have plots so it doesn't flair out as much as is a better fit for 7 inch or lesser wrist.

ah i see... I never liked putting the oem strap / plots on as it made the top to bottom lug height increase and in result had the watch floating at the edge. When i get a bargain 15202 i'll get a rubber b thanks for the tip. I had a 15400 but the size was just too large which makes the 39mm perfect

Where do you hang out to see 5711s all over the place??? ;-)
I've never come across a Nautilus in the wild, and only twice an aquanaut.

Very nice collection indeed!

Nice duo... I’m biased though, but with the Lange 1 instead of the 1815.

Great combo. I’ve been debating adding the AP 38mm chrono. I’m conflicted between going with another sports watch (AP Chrono) or a Patek 5960. Decisions, Decisions....
