Help Please...Patek 5235 vs Lange 1 Moon Phase in Platinum?

I have the 5235 and have the opportunity to acquire the Lange. I think the Lange will get more wrist time as I prefer the dial.

I had the Lange 1 MP in platinum. It is a very nice piece. You really have to buy this at the right price. Market for Langes in general are weak compared to Patek

Lange 1 MP is pretty much my fave dress watch.

Apparently it's NIB and at 37k, which seems to be a pretty decent price. Seeing that it retails for 57k, I have to wonder where the bottom is on the price for such a piece.

I had a Lange 1 MP in PT then traded it for a RG. I am a fan of RG.

If the 2 watches are equal in price I'll take a Lange over a Patek any day of the week. I had problems with two different PP, plus Lange produces about 7500 watches per yr. PP production is 30K + watches annually.

PP makes 55k watches per year, according to an industry source I spoke to.

Lange to me in this case. I think the 5235 gets a little beat up on too much, but the Lange 1 MP is simply sublime and pure elegance.
