Need suggestions for choosing a dressy watch
After giving some thought on what should be the next addition to my humble collection, I came to the conclusion that I need a rose gold dress watch. Subsequently, I pretty much checked everything in the market and identified the following three watches that meet my various selection parameters: (size, price, dial etc)
- VC Patrimony Contemporaine
- Richard Lange
- GO Meissen
I like all of these and the ideal solution would be buying them all (yes, they sing to me!) but need to choose only one at this point. However, it seems that I can not really establish a strong preference to choose one over the other two. In my collection I have JLC, Rolex, Omega, GO, Panerai watches- steel only. I will appreciate if you can also share your thoughts on the selection process.
Many thanks in advance,
Aziz

Let me confuse you a bit more

I'd suggest adding to the list: Chopard XP, either the older model with 2 hands, or the newer with a subsecond dial. New JLC Ultra-thin (there's a larger manual wind and an auto) If you're sticking to the original three...to me the design of the Lange is ...

Aziz, I went through a similar process a few months ago and chose a 38 mm VC Patrimony Tradionnelle in WG. It is also available in RG, as is the new Patrimony without date and the small seconds at 6:00. If you haven't had a chance to try on the candidates...
Great choices

The styles are quite different, so I would suggest spending some time with each so you know what features you like best. Of that trio, I prefer the GO. The elegance and simplicity of the dial are truly special. It's also likely to be made in small numbers...
