I'm digging the GP, VC and Glashutte. I find the dial treatment on the VC particularly striking.

What a Class!

I only wish it was manual winding, rather than automatic!

Best,

Patek - GP - AP - VC (in that order)

pieces fit to my (very personal) requirements, but all have some nice details - each for his own.

Wrong metal, case to big for the movement, ...

in the following order AP-VC JLC

The rests of them look very "still".

We all know from bitter experience that, however a watch might look in 'real-life' photos or press releases, the true test is how it looks and feels 'in the metal' - and even then, sometimes, how it looks and feels beyond the walls of a boutique or an exhibition hall!

What your photographs demonstrate wonderfully well (thank you) is how valuable it is to understand the piece in its natural environment (i.e. on the wrist). Some pieces (which are impressive enough in 'still life') take on an entirely different 'presence' when worn, don't you think?

[p.s. - to answer your question: from the photos posted, the GP impressives aesthetically. You just know, though, don't you, that it would be a whole different vacation as soon as you strapped on the VC or PP....?]

To see the real thing, or at least pictures of the real thing, versus computer renderings....

On the other hand I do like the Lange, especially the wg model

I really like the GP on the wrist. It just feels right. Although, as Nicolas said, if it were only manual wind...
I was able to try on the VC and it was so nice that I forgot to take a picture! I can't wait to try out the Patek!

Great watches you picked out for this comparison.  Hmmm I can't decide on which one I would choose, but I do know which ones are on the bottom of my list.

Surprisingly, all the 3 Richemont brands are at the bottom for me despite these 3 brands ranks high to me when compared to other brands.  These 3 specific chronograph dial designs aren't my cup of tea.

The GP, AP, and Patek would be my top 3 in terms of look.

Cheers,
Anthony

I can't choose.  They all have their pluses and minuses for me aesthetically or mechanically.  I love the VC, GP, and JLC the best of the watches proposed in your post.

Cheers,

Daos

but i do like the PP and VC too with GO nearby

about your previous post! It is indeed interesting to see how our preferences evolve over time as we see the watches in the metal and as new watches are launched.

Lange, P & VC.....

cheers

any of the above will suffice as quality difference not that huge in between them. Great effort to compile them. Thanks for doing so Allen!

Thanks.

But the 39mm of the PP is the optimum size for my wrist.

The rest follow at a distance in the order AP, GO, GP, AL and VC.

The Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Chronograph with the offwhite-lacquered dial!
