Thoughts on the ac
Firstly congrats on the ac. Tough to go wrong with any Lange. my 2c: i had been waiting for lange to introduce an ac as i loved the perpetual calendar but as a man with limited resources didnt want to pay extra for that extra complication. That said, when it came out i pulled the trigger on the perpetual instead. I just preferred the aesthetics of the pc more: in particular i prefer romans (or more generally any hour indicator vs the 'sticks' in particular the double sticks at the 12). Also find the left and right subdials a bit empty. That being said, i think romans vs sticks is a purely personal call and some would argue the pc subdials are too cluttered. So in short i think purely personal preference driven.

I share your sentiments. While this hobby, turned addiction, masked as a passion is supposed to be buttressed by the fact that our toys have residual value, the idea of parting with any one of significance seems too foreign a concept to visualize. The onl...
Your Lange AC is great!
Your Lange AC is great! I chose the PP 5146R over the Lange Saxonia AC a few weeks back purely because I like very classical dial design and I find the Saxonia AC slightly more "modern" looking. But it was very close as the Lange had several plus points s...
Not sure of its "collectibilty factor"
I chose the PP 5205 over this (for now) and to be honest, I still can't take my mind off the Saxonia AC. Truth is I would have purchased both if I hadn't purchased a VC Malte Manual Chrono this very same month, and a PP 5712 in Nov. My watch funds are n...
