The Only Affordable A. Lange & Söhne Watch | Watchfinder & Co.

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

The German brand A. Lange & Söhne is-while not Swiss-one of the very best watchmakers in the world. The styling is immediately recognisable, stark and crisp, and the movements have a certain quality to them that makes them distinctly German. Of course, the price that comes attached to a watch like this Richard Lange edition is well into the £30,000 territory-but what if you could have one for a quarter of the price? Welcome to the next best thing: the Glashütte Original Senator Panorama Date.

    In addition to great content, your close-up photography of the watch movements, especially the ALS, is simply amazing and really drives home the point about the almost fanatical attention to detail ALS gives to its movements. But of course, there is a price for that. Question is, is it worth it? And the answer of course if purely subjective. For me, I love ALS and movement in the Split Second Datograph is mystifying. Of course that's just my opinion...

    Maybe a comparison between movements of a $30k Lange vs a $25k± glashutte original would more accurate (i have no experience with a 30k GO so I'm curious and the Lange finish should be consistent across their model lines) although the dial configuration might not be so similar. I also think the pano series movement's appear higher quality than the senators, although the price range isn't too far off. For instance Golden chatons in the pano gangreserve, and hand engraved Swan neck regulator.

    Sure A Lange's finishing is superior to GO, but a large proportion of the price difference between the two brands is due to the material of the case, which has nothing to do with horology. If you want gold you buy gold, if you want stainless steel you buy stainless steel. But what is the point of gold on a watch? I would like to pay a premium price for a watch for its high horology, not case material. If I wanted gold I'd just buy jewelries.

    Both are excellent watches, but, it would be a better comparison if both are manual wind. Collectors normally consider manual wind more desirable. If you have 30K Pound to spare, Lange is the obvious choice. If not, there is an affordable alternative. Yipsir, a watch connoisseur from HK, when he talks about the GS SBGW series called this the best of watches. This is a high end Three Centre Hand manual wind with long minute hand and an even longer second hand, similar to the Lange. He says watch collectors called this type of second hand, the 'Third Hand.' It takes an excellent mechanism to carry this Third Hand in high frequency (24J, 4Hz) for 72 hours an at same time keep 'chronometer time'. Recommended by him, I bought the latest SBGW231 for 3K after 25% regular discount. It gives me plus 2 sec day for 75 hours. As for the finishing, though it doesn't have the elaborated engraving like the Lange or a Credor, it's impressive, especially considering the price point. Then, again, what about the specs compared to the L041.2 (26J, 38 hr, 3Hz)?

    When watches are rare, we called them a luxury. When they can dance even in dim light, making your heart skip a little, that pleasure is a luxury. They need not be complicated and need not be expensive. Complications are nice, but, there is no end to it. That's why there is no so thing as a grail watch. Still, complication for complication sake, the Wadokei by the genius Masahiro Kikuno would be my pick.

    Who will explain why in A.Lange&Sohne the hour hand goes to the index if it could have been avoided?) It is not necessary to say that someone is competing with someone here, these are two different watches in terms of style within the same class, therefore the Glashütte is definitely more aesthetically attractive:)
