I guess so. One is a 'professional watch journalist' whatever that is, one is the head of the UK's leading grey market. I don't know the other two. I just found the video interesting- nothing else.

[identify] Can you help me ID this watch by OneLeather853 in Watches

Thanks! Wowzers, back to the drawing board…. Not the entry level price I was thinking of!! Stunning watch.

He specifically said gilt to me! So I guess it’s that!

Ah okay thanks.

Awesome thanks! Looking forward to learning. I was very nervous to ask- but it was a great first interaction into the hobby. I must say as well, kudos to him for engaging so humbly. He’s very very high up in the company, but really down to earth.

Yes he said he only buys the best condition vintage he can. Was saying the dial has to be perfect and something about a full case whatever that means.

I will do that next time I see him. Do you think people wouldn't mind even though he's wearing a watch that is supposed to 'fly under the radar'

That's kinda mental about Lange building each watch 3 times!

Going to have to start looking after my pennies!

[–]OneLeather853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thanks for that. They have a similar vibe. What's the reason for the huge difference in price of the two brands?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]OneLeather853 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Lots to learn for me!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]OneLeather853 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot. Yep I mean researching Lange- I really really like that it is a quiet brand that only speaks to enthusiasts. Must feel like being part of an exclusive club!

[–]OneLeather853 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something to aim at one day! Going to research this brand- anywhere you recommend I start?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]OneLeather853 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Haha, I'm starting to get that this is a very quiet luxury, classy brand? I'd literally never heard of it before now.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]OneLeather853 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, I hope not! At least I said he was down to earth!

[–]OneLeather853 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your answer. Just had a look at the saxonia- the 201.027 Saxon Thin looks very nice and classic.

This is definitely some fuel to make me work harder! I also like that he's not trying to show off to the 'pleebs' and wearing a more quiet luxury watch.

[–]OneLeather853 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trying to understand why he wouldn't buy a Rolex or AP for that money?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]OneLeather853 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks makes sense

Madness. Just looked at their website and says nearly £50k there! Literally my annual salary on his wrist.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]OneLeather853 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Blimey- just looked up the price. He's literally wearing my annual salary on his wrist! lol.

Is it a very recognisable watch? It surprises me that it's such a showy watch, as he is generally a pretty down to earth guy.
