GO made it better than Lange for several years.

Absolutely [nt]

I would say yes honestly.

GO is quite underrated when compared to Lange.

Yes, right. [nt]

GO made the discs at the same level

It may sound strange, but I am disturbed by Lange's who are at different heights. Then the numbers should be different in size so they feel the same in size when you look at them.

Nothing compares to GO when it comes to big date

Not even the mighty Lange

Yes. When it comes to large dates, GO . . .

. . . was the first to achieve seamless integration. ;-) ...  

Perhaps, but their concentric date wheels . . .

. . . are on different levels. GO was the first to achieve level integration, to the best of my knowledge.

Here's a pic posted many years ago on our JLC forum . . .

. . . that illustrates the differing levels of leading and trailing date wheels. The leading indicator [1] is higher than the trailing indicator [9]. PS - my foggy memory says there's an even earlier execution of the large date complication, going back to...  

I think i read that somewhere yes

Huge huge respect to JLC.

I must say very impressive and very smart

 
 By: JLG22 : May 25th, 2020-23:41
But less beautiful. For me Moser outperformed everyone in ingenuity with their date but not in beauty which remains GOs trophy. GO s date is a perfect combination of beautiful and smart

Hehehe yes in that watch I can understand

 
 By: JLG22 : May 25th, 2020-23:42
You should check the senator chronometer then with the same charming big date less the efforts to decipher time 😉

I do get your point but honestly its quite easy to read

 
 By: JLG22 : May 26th, 2020-03:17
And they're beautiful so i guess thats their purpose. But you re right in that both points are subjective

Absolutely no need to apologize!

 
 By: JLG22 : May 26th, 2020-11:59
The comment was not strident at all. Which one do you currently have? And i wish you acquire many soon. Any preferred ones you re considering? Cheers

I think Moser

makes the best date with each shown on one wheel in the large size. An extraordinary mechanical feat. But your right GO is top shelf.

Yes again i agree its outstanding

 
 By: JLG22 : May 26th, 2020-07:34
But it is more impressive from a mechanical and intelligence perspective and less from a beauty and art perspective. I would say they came up with the smartest solution by far but not the most handsome on. Even though it is amazingly beautiful too.

Could you show me

A picture of the Moser that you’re referring to?

Oh yes it is!
