If you want to buy a nice Lange collection, times have never been better

Ooh my, what on earth happened to the value retention of this amazing watch brand.
These 4 can be had for 100K Eur. Unbelievably low grey market prices. It seems iconic watches are no longer perceived as such.
1815 Yellow gold for the price of a steel Rolex 😬😢

Dato first gen was introduced in retail at around 20*k€ so at 35k€ it is still strong in used market. The question is what pushed the new Dato retail price sky high - considering material cost, labor etc are steady ! Best, Mahesh.,

ALS does not build their brand with the advertising and PR that PP and Rolex do, their watches are commingle refereed to as “hockey pucks” and they all pretty much look the same, just beautiful movements and complications, no disrespect intended. It is wh...
Zeitwerk was 47 k new now 42 k: more than acceptable
