The funny thing is that the GO Panoreserve has a better date function, with both numerals on the same plane, while A.Langhe has them one above the other so they use a date divider to cover that up, while GO shows proudly how it's done!!!

Glashutte Original might be the most underrated watch brand out there: 7:48. They make all parts and tooling (!) themselves. They are on the same level of Moser in terms of hand-finishing and hand-engraving and have more elaborate dials with the Senator Sixties but they are even more underrated. Thanks for bringing GO to our attention. But they deserve a own video and not just to be seen not as the little brother of Lange.

First lottery win purchase right there in this video. I wince when I see people wearing £20K Daytonas, when they could have had Lange 1. There is no comparison.

That ALS 1815 with the blue print on white dial is gorgeous. That and the Datograph are my grail chronographs

Such an amazing channel with great content, thanks for the knowledge and advice guys, I’m learning something new everyday for which I’m grateful and appreciative. Keep up the good work👍🏼

How you worked a buzz the tower reference into a watch video was the best thing I have seen on youtube.

Glashutte Original has the longer continuous history. I won't say their entry level watches are the equal of ALS but some of their higher end ones certainly are. Much as I'd love any ALS chronograph, the chronograph on my grail list is the GO PanoRetroGraph. You need it to count up, it does, you need it to reverse and count down, it does that too, you need to be able to set a timer and have it chime when it hits zero, yep. That's assuming you could stop looking at the movement long enough to actually use it which is a danger with both ALS and GO.

I enjoy these reviews the most , one can certainly appreciate the etherical level of skill and craftmenship that goes into an ALS or Patek ...etc ,but few of us can afford or justify the cost to have one , to see similar watches that are attainable to the enthusiast gives one hope and inspiration to rise to that next level ...

That GO panoreserve is crazy ! I’ll take it

I love your videos, the way you speak about the watches is the best, I’ve learned so much, thank you

You know that you are a fan of expensive watches when a 11.000$ watch is considered a "budget alternative" lol

The last one was so nice. Great video.

3:50 The only chronograph that makes me drool

I must be truly perverse. I had decided to buy a Lange Große 1, but, when I came to do it, I saw the Panoreserve in blue -- and I preferred it. I preferred the harmony of the dial, but even more I preferred the coplanar big date implementation. Once you have seen the fact that the two numbers on the Lange date are not in the same plane, you cannot "unsee" it. The good news is that, with the "saving" I made I bought another GO, a Zenith, a Nomos, and a Moser. I now have seven watches from the small town of Glashütte, but still no Lange. One day soon -- but it will have to be a "no date" or a "hand date" model.

Very interesting, thank you. I´m new to L&S and seriously impressed.

I recommend anyone who likes AL&S apply for the 'brochure'. It is beautiful. A hard back book with full page photographs of the movements. Truly awesome.

I’ve acquired a few new pieces within the last couple of months. The last two visits to my ad I found myself admiring the Glashutte pieces Immensely. I will likely purchase a Lange 1 eventually but I would be more than happy to also own one of the beautiful Glashutte offerings.

Now that's a watch to my liking Nomos. Love it.

Outstanding!

I have decided that when I retire (in three years), that I will celebrate with an A. Lange & Sohnne watch. I am a poor state employee who has no need for such a thing as this, however, I will have it.

GOs happen to be pretty darn expensive on their own. But nothing matches an A Lange & Sohne.

I love how dramatic you are. Really adds the extráñese this watch deserves 👌🏾

I think a more fair comparison to the Saxonia Ultra-Thin is the D. Dornblüth & Sohn Kal. 99.1 which retails for just over US$4000. These watches are completely hand built from the ground up by a father and son team in the small town of Kalbe, just outside of Dresden. The quality of hand craftsmanship is quite incredible for the price.

I completely sympathize with your comment about Lange & Sohne being out of reach but greatly desired. These three definitely were more affordable options, particularly the Nomos. But the Glashutte Original watches did give the design of the Lange's shown competition in design. In fact, the 2nd watch, I found the GO dial to be a bit less busy and more balanced in design than the Lange. Even the 3rd GO I found to be a bit more appealing. I've also eyed the Muhle Glashutte watches in addition to the Nomos and the Glashutte Originals. Some really fine watches coming from German watchmakers.

I would live to own an A. Lange & Söhne, but I can't afford one. Liked that the alternatives are also German made watches; good German made watches for that sake too

I tried on a panoreserve today, oh wow what a watch, it is everything you hope it will be, it’s my attainable grail watch and like I say it’s everything I hoped it would be. I have a long term plan for my ultimate grail, an ALS, some investments but those are long term, I shall enjoy the panoreserve in the meantime.

Fascinating that you guys would do this segment since you are part of the Richemont group?

Glashutte is one of the most underrated watch brands. I love my Lange 1 but the pano moon is definitely on my list just waiting for the updated movement with a longer reserve.

That glashutte orig. but with the moon phase I was looking at it recently and was really stunned like wow this is a beautiful beatiful watch. When I saw the price was less than 12,500 American dollars I was blown away. It reminds me of Today’s Tudor watches. Most ppl think if that’s a cheap version of rolex, but then when you hold and wear a BB, especially the bronze ones you realize wow this is, all on its own, an incredible watch. Better than a sub to me honestly.

You can judge me for posting about a sub 1000 dollar watch here but the Sugess moonphase master is a super cheap but still fully functional chrono that imo looks great and has the “vibe” of the 1815. Theres a guilloche version and an enamel version with lume. It uses st1908 which uses the ty2528 gears for moonphase and a date pointer as well which for me makes it the most useful and most good looking watch i own.

The Panoreserve is my favorite of all 6 watches easily. Glad its only at least attainable
