Cheap vs. Expensive Calendar Watch - The Definitive Difference | Watchfinder & Co.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Some of us are happy for our watches just to tell us what the time is, but some of us are not. There are a handful of people for whom a watch must display not only the time, but the date, the day, the month and even the phase of the moon. Entry to this club will set you back a few thousand pounds, but the upper end seemingly has no limit. Question is-can you tell the difference?

The whole watch industry thrives on price desensitization. Panerai straps sells for $300. Now that doesn’t seem bad for someone who’s spending $6k on a watch. Until you realize you can get a strapping boot for that price, which obviously need more leather, stitching and craftsmanship to make.
"In fact, why don't we just look at it?" was not expecting that from watchfinder, but chuffed to bits nonetheless.

I like the Lange watch much but it is vomit compared to someone rocking a Greubel Forsey QP A Equation. kzread.info/dash/bejne/YqiOwaSOYqW3fc4.html The Lange is 144p compared to the Greubel Forsey which would be 8k. :-/ Heck, you couldn't even buy a Greubel Forsey 3 hand movement for the price you pay for the Lange. You can buy 3 of those Lange perpetual calendar watches for the price of 1 Greubel Forsey Signature 1 watch.

Christopher Bieniarz this is not just horrendous trolling, it is deeply offensive. Your anti-german sentiment is not appreciated. As Mr. Avalon, above, says, fuck off! Such a statement is as bad as Hitler himself, or rather worse in that you’re too stupid to learn from his mistakes. Also, stop politicising everything. Not everything is about flags and flag waving. And if the real reason you made that idiotic statement is to troll and to get a reaction... take a long hard look at yourself and then tell yourself what you see... (n.b. no one else is interested).

That A. Lange is absolutely stunning. Please do more entry-level watches. Zenith is a steel at that price.
What a great video. Fantastic. Quality of video material, choice of music, editing ....fantastic. Great Job! Maybe the best Watchfinder & Co. video so far!
I really like the close-up/macro photography. Really well done. The small hand gestures accompanying the narrative are effective too.
When your grail watch is a “cheap” one in this comparison.
❤️ look at it, just look at it! 💔 unfortunately that’s all I can do is, look. The background music cracked me up.
Idk about the A. Lange und Söhne, but the video brought a tear to my eye.
05:28 Damn, that's an amazing shot and cut. Gave me goosebumps.
For the first time, I was so blown away that I had to pause the video. 4:00 The movement is stunning and I can look at it all day.
If the Zenith is $3-5K, the A. Lange & Sohne feels like $6-10K to me. Better, yes. $45K better, hell no.
That interlude to just look at it was so masterfully done. What a watch.
I cant explain how much I love this channel, this is like dream for watch enthusiast
Those timed cuts around the date changing at 6:12 were just sublime 😀
I always watch your videos when I wake up in the morning. It's so calming .... thank you. :)
The macro shots and the voice overs set this channel apart from others, by far the best watch channel on KZread.
Amazing video! Your editing is flawless. You have outdone yourself! Keep it up!
Very cool editing!! Loved the sense of humor in this one haha
One of my favourite videos up to date! The favouritism towards the ALS is fun to watch because it's fueled by passion pure passion. Love it! 10/10
Dude you write your content so well! Truly well done.
Gosh I have fallen in love with Zenith And A.L&S .Watching these watches gives me a diff pleasure not everyone can understand These are not just watches they are a pleasures of life Life is made up of small moments after all
When the Lange music came on I thought "What the hell is this?" but then I started to enjoy it and even found myself snapping my fingers along with the music. Great video!
Zenith Chronomaster wearer here albeit in preferable silver/white dual. Loved the video if both but honestly the Z is the only watch you’ll ever need only surpassed by my now sold Patek 2526. It’s in-house, first auto chronograph, accurate to tenth second, calendar jumps at midnight, no chore setting it either. Swapped the bracelet for blue Hirsch croc on deploy clasp. Search Guido Pelagos review if it you’ll buy like I did and I paid £1750 in 2015 now worth 3-5k
That b-roll segment was a very cheeky surprise. Loved it
"In fact why don't we just look at it for a bit." * Right you're. *Pause Video * Click Full screen *Resume Video Tears begin to form... good thing I'm sitting down.
I think the GMT and the perpetual calendar are the most useful complication in a watch. The zenith el Primero Chrono Moon Phase is a beautiful perpetual calendar watch. The A Lange & Sohne Langematik Perpetual is a beautiful masterpiece of mechanical art. Indeed it is a bargain at $60,000 if you compare it with the price of a Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar.

Another excellent video from you guys; I’d love to see some more macro montages of exquisite pieces like the one in this video, that was a great segment! Also, I’m curious: do you ever get anything from the super exclusive brands like HYT, MB&F, Greubel Forsey, etc?
OH.MY.GOD What a beautiful timepiece that AL&S is!!
I hope that you make another watch montage again in the future, it’s so unexpected coming from this channel and it was very enjoyable
That Lange movement is truly something to behold...
A. Lange and Sohne is a superb piece of horology
I just love these videos, just make me so warm
When I saw Zenith, I thought this time he starts with the expensive one.
That glam shot montage was completely unexpected but I absolutely loved it!
Comparing Lange to warm caramel is the best thing ever!!! I salivated like crazy

Yeah, 2 awesome watches but the A. Lange & Sohne is a museum master piece. I dont think there is anything out there to rival it. If there is please educate us.
Amazing video! I would consider instead of the Zenith the Longines master collection chronograph moonphase that is in the 2000 gbp Mark, great video! The A Lange is incredible
You are so funny. Of all the ways anyone else would 'look at it', you did it that way. Truly brilliant. ;)
The zenith is a beauty in itself
This was awesome!
This was fun, enjoyed it quite much
Love at first sight for the A. Lange & Söhne here...Another one to add to the if only I could win the lottery list of gorgeous watches..
It's good to have a dream owning that A.Lange Sohne piece of art ❤️
That lange is simply perfection
The production quality of these videos really does justice to the kind of watches being shown
Excellent video, quite interesting.
Beautiful photography as always
Simply the BEST watches channel on the planet!!!
Nice production edit, so well in can be used for an ad.
Zenith El primero is on my list of must-have watches along with Omega seamaster and Rolex oyster perpetual 39 in rhodium
Love the background music!

The El Primero is a masterpiece of balance and proportions.
Very cool, love your video's man.

A. Lange & Söhne is amazing! 1815 Annual in rose gold is my grail! 🔥🥵
Nice job, fun video, made me smile.
They're both stunning to me.
I love the Zenith, would make a great every day watch...but the Lange is just spectacular. But even if I was worth $100 million, I'd feel nervous wearing it all the time. I'd lock it away and take it out now and then to admire it.
Amazing! Can you please do a Longines Master Collection L2.673.4.78.3 review?
Day and date is just handy because we all forget what day it is from time to time. The chronograph is easier to live without, but nice to have. Everything else is almost fluff. But it's actually difficult to find a watch with only what you want and nothing else.
¡Bravo! Your videos are also a piece of art.
I honestly thought this video was going to point out the differences between a luxury brand watch and something you would find in a department store. The 4000 pound price tag is by no means a cheap watch.
Going to look at the time and instead end up just looking at your watch and forgetting to see what the time was :D I do that all the time although I don't have anything close to that Lange, but I have a very nice Tissot limited edition that is my pride and joy :)
Love the Nintendo-Wii-meets-Ratatouille sounding music over the Lange montage.
