So who's going to try and convince me to buy the BNIB WG Datograph Perpetual that I was considering, and which is still available, before I bought a few things from the opposition??

Patek and Lange are both #1, so you need atleast 2 watches from both.

I won't....

I would get the platinum perpetual tourbillon.... That is an amazing looking piece aesthetically. I don't love the aesthetics of the Datograph perpetual as much, though it is not a bad looking piece by any means...

720.025??

I have just been offered one would you believe - can you help with where the pricing should be at, list is Eur278 I believe, so ex-vat, 220 is the starting point for negotiations. Any thoughts?

I never have warmed up to the Dato perpetual either. The dial is just too busy. The Lange 1 perpetual calandar Tourbillion, at $340k, is in a different league, however.

Wow is that the US list? So the ex-Vat European price is quite a bit less. I guess discounts will be hard to come by from ADs......
