Both!
Perfect pair to own, if you have these two you have every need covered!
If you have to choose one, all depends on your lifestyle needs and if you already have any other watches you like to wear. Hard to place any recommendation without any further information.
If you are after investment advice I am not the right person to answer but suspect there are better things to buy!
Patek 5990 vs Lange Date first generation
Dear friends, I would like to ask your valuable opinions on the two watches that are currently on my short list: Patek Nautilus 5990 (Brand New) and Lange Datograph First Generation (Second Hand). I understand they both are very different in terms of size...
For me, the Datograph without any hesitation
Why? Because I consider the Datograph as a master piece. And I don't think the same about the 5990. Too thick and too complicated for the "spirit" of the Nautilus... Just my point of view. Then, it also depends about what you want to do with these watches...

It is a very nice project
as both watches are very interesting. They are very attractive and appeal for different reasons. As both choices are very different, I would say that you haven't chose already what you really want. You must think about when you'll wear them: what appeals ...
I think they are too different to compare..
You really need to try them on to decide which sings to you.. But it maybe be helpful if I shared with you what I don't like about each Datograph - too thick - quite easily available since it was produced for nearly 15yrs 5990 - too thick - The chrono but...
Thank You everyone for your comments
I think I cannot make a decision mainly because I love both the Nautilus line and Datograph. It seems like both Lange and Patel fans favour Datograph more than the 5990. My Only hesitation on Datograph is this purchase will be a major one for me so I need...
Value also needs to be assessed in a relative sense.....
.....relative to how much you will enjoy wearing a watch. I think that is crucial.
Agree.
I enjoy watches. I always find reasons or excuses to justify the cost . I just find it getting harder when the watch is gonna cost me an arm or leg....
I think then ...
you may have to consider will you be happy with just one arm and one leg??!! Buy what you love but try not to get caught in a situation where you may have over committed yourself. I speak from experience as I am nuts about watches with minimal funds.
I only wish
you could have a quick look at my bank account Joe! £453 overdraft with zero savings You can tell I love my possessions too much and am not the most practical person. But, hey we only live once!
Poverty is always a relative thing....
....i know a billionaire who is never happy because he never has all that he wants. He is poor. I know a guy who earns £120 per week....he has everything he wants. He is rich. Everything is relative. How is that Vantage?
Pretty good
when I drove it one mile to work this morning Joe! any excuse to drive the car. I think I will miss the car more than England when I leave the country in June Will be finding any excuse I can to fly back here on a holiday
True
I am forcing myself to wear my 5130, whereas a 5110R which would have cost less would have been better value, in a cost-per-wear ratio.
