Patek Philippe

The main reason being availability, as I think these novelties will only go to VVIP clients, at least for a while. But also because I don't love the square shape and proportions. The wrist test has just confirmed my initial thoughts. I do love the new day...  

I find the case design easier on the eyes when the leftmost part of the case is hidden under your cuff, looks bloated otherwise.

But I can appreciate your overall point. But why do you say it will only go to VVIPs…did the AD say something about needing previous purchase history as opposed to new clients? If this is indeed the new “Nautilus” sports line, then I will expect it to be ... 

During my visit to the AD, I asked about the possibility to attract new younger clients (not me, not young enough 😅) with this model, but I guessed based on the answer I got that it wouldn't be the case, and it will initially go to well-known clients. I g... 

No doubt they will sell but that fact alone doesn’t mean it’s a good looking watch. A swing and a miss if you ask me.

I feel something similar with the Santos large size, and I much prefer the medium size. Although I'm really missing something in between.

the TV screen not very popular at the time. So pretty with the Breguet numerals and hands this 5020😉

Still a hard pass for me.

I was really surprised to see it on display, but I guess that this is one of the benefits of having fewer ADs...

A small AD had only them on display, only on display.

I’ve already shared my other thoughts. So thanks a lot, but it’s not for me. ☺️🙏

Same happens with most of Lange watches... and I don't really know why the manufactures continue doing it. At this price range, it is hard to believe that it might just be laziness or cost saving...

the black background date window for platinum versions.

And then not consistently, Odysseus has matched windows, Ltd Ed Titanium Odysseus does not. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The LE Lange 1 30th Anniversary in Pt has a matched black background - I have recently ordered one and now waiting for delivery

I have the Lange 1 Tourbillon Handwerkskunst and it has a matched black date window.

Any chance you can share a picture of that masterpiece??

...  

Thank you!

I do love the just released LE Lange 1 Pt 🤤🤤🤤

My Salon tells me these were gone in 24 hours!

It is a huge, huge Patek. The blue one would have been a great watch if smaller. The selling strategy is awful discrimination. PS I do own a Patek. 😉

I owned two Pateks and sold both (one to fund my IWC MR and one to fund my AP RO Black Ceramic).

I don’t care for the olive green dial of the steel version. They look better in real world photos than the advert, and I imagine that they look more proportionate and better sized in real life (rather than in any picture). Thanks for sharing the pictures.... 

I don't love any of the two versions on bracelet, the platinum on strap looks better in my opinion. Maybe because of the busier dial.

Bigger, square-er, bulky is not the way I see preferences going, but I'm not the target here. That is fine as it may be some people's preference. For me just making square nautilus seems like lack of creativity.

Although I would say it's more thanks to your photogenic wrist!

I'm not upset, I'm actually happy that I don't love it, there are so many temptations out there that I don't need more 😅

explanation !
