    The moment she flipped that Lange over my jaw dropped. I couldn't comprehend the staggering beauty of it for a second. That is probably the nicest Patek I have seen and to my surprise I gave it a slight edge over the Lange until I saw the back of the Lange. That is some real artistry there.

    Lange is highly praised but still vastly underrated. If you know watches you can immediately recognise a Lange. If you take prices, Lange almost always consistently falls when sold on. I have no idea why. They are some of the best retail watches made today. The design and detailing on Lange watches are breathtaking. They really should get more love.

      I enjoy Jenni’s voice so much, I will watch her videos even if they are about Rolex. Being my name, I am very attuned to different pronunciations of “Lange”. Jenni pronounces it slightly brighter than some other Germans I have heard. That could be regional accents. In the US, “Lange” has been anglicized for probably 100 years.

    Lange is the main reason I started paying attention to dress watches.

They are also the reason why I ever considered buying preowned watches... for obvious reasons 😅

    The Lange wins. A perpetual calendar in a slim body with an elegant design and practical, useful features. The Patek is just too bulky, and the movement isn't as nicely designed. Of course it all depends on what you like, which is subjective. AL&S by far produce more watches that I could see myself wearing than any other brand.

I go to a Patek authorised dealer and there is none on display and they tell me I would be lucky to be placed on a waiting list let alone buy a timepiece.

  • @daviddoyle2738

    I think the difference between the two watches is the use of circles. The PP uses two large circles which pull my attention to the center of the dial. Encouraging me to follow the sword hands to playfully explore the face.
    Where’s the ALS grabs my attention with the big date and I follow the circles on the dial. Thus allowing my eyes to jump from beautiful complication to beautiful complication.

    Another fascinating and informative review. I wanted a Patek for some time as my grail watch and hopefully one day will get one. I think the day-date-month display windows the Patek are clearer overall than the larger date with sub-dial arrangement on the ALS. But the Patek 5905R model with the chronograph would be my choice so I'd have the chrono complication too. I like how the second hand of the chronograph can be used as the watch's seconds while the single sub-dial is a 60-minuter counter. It retains the symmetry and visual clarity of the annual calendar.

    Lange for me, no question. I prefer the dial design and the movement is absolutely stunning. Why did Patek not center the day and month indicators between the hour markers? It looks wrong to me. In the US, we write the date differently, month/day/year, but we’re unusual in that regard (well, and others, too, like not using the metric system). Although I prefer the Lange, the Patek is certainly a fine watch, too.

    I own a Lange Saxonia Moon Phase Black dial and the Patek Annual calendar. Both are terrific timepieces. The Lange I like for the larger date, not as formal. The Patek has the history and a terrific timepiece, attention to detail on both brands is exceptional. I wear and enjoy both timepieces quite regularly. The brands are different, I don’t have a favorite since both have unique characteristics. That’s why I have them both in my collection.

    A Lange FTW. It's not that I don't like Patek. But Lange is simply better. That's just my take.

      I was looking for this comment. Even though the finishing of the patek wasn't perfect, the finishing of this LS is just unacceptable for this price point. Hands are literally scratched.

    The perfect pair. Mechanically speaking, I imagine the Patek is slightly more difficult to achieve that dial layout, but between these two incredible watches, there is no single winner. It's a win win for either. They're pure art and simply pinnacles in their world.

    I love both. Window date or radial date? Most of us are outside of the window looking in and at least can appreciate the quality and appreciation for both brands. Funny how both brands can always have a deployant clasp for a modest increase in price relative to the watch’s RRP.

    I prefer the A.Lange over the Patek , the dial has a much better layout and overall classic look , the Patek's three squares for date look a bit odd , also for the case back , the Lange looks to be more intricate and as it has a mini rotor you can see more of the works , so if you were to score each front and back , It's 2/0 in favour of the A. Lange Saxonia for me... having said that , I'm actually not keen on any Patek designs to be fair... I think they are an acquired taste... Not for me ... even if I had the funds.. Great review as always Jen..
