      I'm very interested in watches. I have to disagree. You are mistaken human ingenuity and workmanship as something divine and other worldly. But if you are talking about creating intricate creatures that serves no ultimate purpose, then yes, we might just had a glimpse into how God works.

      rhannay39 funny story. My family and I popped into an AD near me that I’ve spent some money with.. maybe 10k. My son was running around and tripped and bumped his head. Well he started crying, and when he was younger tended to puke when he cried... and he projectile vomited all over their day-date and datejust case and surrounding carpet. They were kind and accommodating.

      @@rhannay39 I joined a Swiss watch company when I was 24. One Friday afternoon, the big boss showed me a new model and I told him how much I liked it. He passed it to me and said "Wear it for this weekend!". I did, went clubbing with my friends in the worst parts of town, got totally wasted... the full monty. Monday I gave it back and he said, it's going on sale next week for $ 125'000. I would probably have worked some time for free, if I would have lost it. LOL

      I heard a story of a guy who had a Rolex stolen from his locker at a country club - but not the ALS Datograph next to it which was worth ten times as much, because most people don't recognize the value of the ALS from the dial. So yes, as a value investment AND as an horological masterpiece, I would consider it a bargain.

      It's a brand that is not likely to increase your chances of getting mugged because they are so discrete that most street level criminals have never heard of them.. Not like a Rolex, Breitling Omega etc..

    I'd gladly "settle" for an original Flyback in platinum for an exit watch. But if I'm going to spend FU money I'd definitely consider the non-tourbillion perpetual in white gold with that mesmerizing grey dial for well under 100k EUR.

    This doesn't get any better than this. Lange is the peak of horology. Why some people think AP is better when all it does it redo Genta's RO over and over again i will never understand.

    I so misunderstood your pricing, in the UK 'RRP: 298.00€' reads as 298€, so yes, that is a bargain ;-)
