Go for the Lange
you will be happy with its quality, finishing and lange style,
I would say for such a young age, you need time to appreciate the VC especially 1921,

Advice for a young collector?
Hello Purists! I'm quite new to this forum and only joined about a little over a month ago and have been more of a lurker until now. I'm a young collector at 19, but I have had a love affair with horology ever since I was a young teenager. I have a pretty...
I say go for the Vacheron
The TimeZone is too much watch and the RM is too obviously high-tech. I think the traditional style but the wacky diagonality (why not coin a phrase?) of the VC will stun anyone who sees you wearing it. Rarity should not be an issue - you've got time on y...
Just a thought...
Keep the AP, sell the other existing pieces and then buy the RM and the VC or the RM and the ALS (depending on the balance of funds available). Cheers, pplater.
Go for the Lange
you will be happy with its quality, finishing and lange style, I would say for such a young age, you need time to appreciate the VC especially 1921, cheers, ES
First of all, let me congratulate you for your eclectic taste in watches.
At 20, it is not bad at all! I think a Vacheron 1921 would be the right addition in your collection. But I am not you, and the watch has to please you. Why not some other tracks? U.N Sonata, Lange Richard Lange, JLC Duometre ( à Chronographe or Quant...
Definitely the Lange
You wont regret this one for sure! Welcome here, and enjoy your time with us! Glad to see someone at such a young age contemplating some serious pieces! More folks should be like you! Tschuss Stephen
Excellent taste! Very heavy selection of watches for a 19 year old nubie
My pick is Vacheron. Unique and it's a VC, can't go wrong with a VC.
Thank you all for your kind words of encouragement
I appreciate all of your efforts to make me feel welcome, as well as all of your highly regarded opinions
Great choices so far ...
As with everyone else, let me welcome you to PuristS, even if you have been lurking for a while (most of us did that). Wonderful to see you putting so much thought into your collection. I understand that you want to extend yourself into new areas, but I t...
The VC
Great options, by the way. I have been thinking hard about the 1921 as well as the ALS Zeitzone for a long time, and would happily own either. The only reasons that I don't are that the ratio of width to depth on the Lange makes it sit a little oddly on m...
No love for the RM?
I just noticed that everyone suggests I either pursue the VC or the Lange, and not the RM! I woulda thought that because of my age, more people would have leant towards the piece; being the most contemporary designed in the bunch... guess I was wrong! Tha...
go for the lange, here's why:
Sounds like you already want the lange, but just afraid you couldn't pull it off cuz of ur... age? I'm about 20, I never worry if a dress watch is unsuitable for my age. Just go for it. 1 thing I learnt is everyone subconciously picks smtg that is suitabl...
