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.
Lange 1 ~$30k, Lange saxonia or 1815 ~$18-20k, VC Trad. Small seconds ~$15k. Breguet Classique 5177 ~$15k

5177 in the blue enamel is crazy
Imo Breguet shortchanges customers with the sunburst dial when they used to have the stainless steel versions in guilloche dials too. Those are far, far nicer looking and much more work goes into them as well.
That’s what turned me away from wanting a Breguet marine alarm in Steel really. Not worth the price at all even on the secondhand market imo.
Vacheron Constantin 6290 at like 4 or 5mm thick, $4K
Patek 5120g 6mm thick ~$20K
Nomos (various) 6mm thick ~$2-3K
Bvlgari octo finissimo 5.15mm thick $15K
Pretty cool options!
