Buying a Lange 1 abroad

A Lange 1 has been on my wish list for the past year , and I have upcoming trips to London and Frankfurt ... my question is: any idea, taking into accounts what kind of discounts can be had in the US vs UK vs Germany as well as the VAT refund traveling back to the US, is it cheaper to buy (assuming from AD) in the US, UK or Germany?

Thanks for any advice / experience / words of wisdom !

You could get about 25 % off with all discounts included. Depends on where you get it.

I went to Germany in September 2017 to the Munich Lange boutique. The prices in EUR were slightly higher than the USD price in America excluding VAT refund and conversion. In the US, if the watch costs $16k USD, in Munich it was like 16,500 EUR or something like that.
