Or, everything else should cost less. Here is my glashutte original panoreserve. I love it. I have known about GO for awhile but hadn’t really looked at it as an option. Last year I went to Watch Time NYC and they had a booth there.

First, quality was nuts. Seeing it person they’re so much nicer than what pics portray. Most impressive watches there for price I saw.

Second, everyone was so friendly and non judgmental. By comparison the guy at Breguet booth was such a pretentious douche bag it’s put me off the brand a bit.

Anyway, went and bought my own shortly after. I put a sickly mint strap that gets dirtier and more moody looking everyday, just the way I like. It’s manual wind and I like that I get to spend 15 seconds winding it everyday I wear it.

You could always just go for a Lange 1. Very similar look, not nearly as thick for like 5x the price lol.

Yeah, the lange stuff is cool. But if I'm spending that much money, it better be for a Patek, or some other Holy Trinity piece.

I've never heard someone say a lange isn't part of the Holy Trinity haha

[–] mrbkkt1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Holy trinity is Patek, AP, and VC.
Although ALS is up there in finishing, and Rolex probably sells more than all 4 of them combined.

TIL. I'd never heard of that term before. I would have assumed something like FPJ or ALS are considered higher end than those brands.
