Lange Datograph reference 403.032
I was in Berlin over the last few days and managed to find my way into a number of watch shops. I was surprised that so many "hard to get pieces" were available across both Lange and Patek. Still, it gave me the opportunity to try on a number of watches, and I have to say that I have fallen for the Datograph in rose gold, reference 403.032. It is such a beautiful watch. I normally tend to buy direct from an AD, but have noticed that there is quite a lot of price difference between the new and the pre-owned. I have a number of other watches, but this would be my first Lange. I am looking for advice as I am inclined to look pre-owned. I was offered the watch new at EUR 35k.
First, is there a reliable pre-owned market or should i wait for the piece at auction? (please email me if there is any commercial advice here) How would you recommend buying this piece pre-owned? (again, please email)
Second, anybody out there who owns the rose gold Datograph, I would love to hear your experience of the watch.
