Comments on the following watches

[wolfeyes1974]

well guys, i've 2 slots to fill up and i'm contemplating the following...can anyone share with me your experience/comments?

1. Richard Mille (not familiar with their watch) - what's the entry price? $50K b4 or after disc? typical discount and what about the resale value? anyone here owns this brand b4 and what's your experience?

2. Lange 1 Grande (RG)

3. Hublot Big Bang RG (tried it on last week and can't remember the model..44mm version...i think it's the "king" version?)

4. JLC Master Calendar

currently, i lack annual calendar watch and precious metal ones hence the above-mentioned shortlist.

appreciate your comments!

cheers

Hi bro james ,
Between all this great watch , my vote goes to the RM follows by lange 1 , both PG .
I've got contact for PP 5146G and RM 0005 PG , at quite a steal ,PM if u interested , I whld have gotten the RM if not for my big wrist , think it looks perfect on you .
Lange 1 is a very nice piece of art , but 1 thing i dun like due to it been manual wind . But still a beautiful piece .
If you are spoted with a RM , you are instanly reconise as a rich man with a great taste , haha .....

hello....no need so serious and get the PC lah....hahaaha...

[feilong108]

Lange 1 is my fave...manual winding is good mah....less servicing needed...and i am tired of chunky watches...esp when i have the punt wrist size of 6".....now 1 hand bigger than the other....must change to wearing watch on the right wrist leow...

[Sinner]

from yr list, i wld go wiv RM.
my humble opinion only..

[Nooch]

Bro, u open ur bank again?? hehe I tot close shop?? ..RM is my pick.

[edsonchan]

I thought you looking at the JLC alarm?

RM...... juicy

[KuchingKu]

I will take the Lange 1 (but not grande, just the normal) but in Platinum. In fact, my AD got 1 but I money no enough. How about the Datograph. That's lange at its best.

RM = Costly for complications. Simple pieces like RM5 starts from over 30K. Still a relatively short history brand. If RM mati, will the brand survive him?

JLC = Great movements but resale is not great.

Hublot = Lots of marketing and hype but not sure of its future as it tries to shack off the 'AP-copy' label.

Another to consider in precious metal is AP ROO RG rubberclad. Classic, trendy and great presence. Relatively ok in terms of price now. Even cheaper than some LE ROO.

[kenkelvin]

yes Lange 1 no doubt but not grande.

[sandisk7]

I'd say RM from your list.

I have never own one from RM...but handled a RM005FM when I was considering it and it is very nicely finished.

You seems to be a 1 watch per brand person, have you consider the VC Overseas range too, esp the chrono?

[kenkelvin]

if VC should be patrimony for bro wolfeyes, correct? haha

[wolfeyes1974]

I'd say RM from your list.

Actually you're right bro...I shld include VC too. Thanks for pointing that out!

A. Lange float my boat on those the above brand mention. U may want to check out Speake-Marin . Very well design &
craftmanship. A watch to watch for broMostly , choose one from your heart that sing to u & not on resale value. Cheers
