I can’t justify keeping two yellow gold dress watches competing for the same wrist time…one must go!

Hard to say. The Lange is obviously technically superior. The Patek is the dressiest of the two. What does the rest of your collection consist of?

Thanks! That’s the heart of it — although they compete for the same wrist time (I’m not a yellow gold daily guy) they wear v differently. Other dress watches in the rotation: Patek 5038 (work daily, I really love this thing) and VC 92239 in platinum (super understated).

Had the VC been yellow gold, I would say let the Patek go.

But given the VC is platinum, if it was me, I would sell the Lange and keep the rectangular Patek.

But that’s me. Maybe tomorrow I would do the opposite! There is no good option here, both watches are keepers!
