Very simple poll - which do you prefer, the glorious ROO Platinum Tourbillon Chrono or the equally glorious Datograph Perpetual Tourbillon??

911Cab · 30 October 2016, 05:55 PM

Dato but if memory serves me correctly you've owned one of the versions of the Lange but not a PT turb AP.

I love the datograph, hopefully the up/down model will be my next watch. Although I love AP I've never really liked this version with the open dial.

A3MED · 30 October 2016, 06:36 PM

I'd go for the ROO just because the calendar function on the lange seems obsolete with that small font. Other than that they are both amazing timepieces.

Hairdude1 · 30 October 2016, 07:02 PM

AP solely for the resale

conkers · 30 October 2016, 07:06 PM

Interesting comments already, thanks everyone!

I am usually pro-AP but in this case, the Lange.

You can get wrist hernia wearing that AP which weights a ton.

This. That AP goes beyond heavy.

As much as I love AP, nothing will ever be more perfect than a Dato.

Yup I prefer the basic Dato and AP 44, but if pressed I'd take the AP.

Have to go for ROO even though ambivalent to both. ALS subdials impossible to read

texex91 · 30 October 2016, 10:14 PM

Your last ALS didn't last long (as I recall) and you have plenty of round dress watches currently.

Need more sports watches in the rotation, huge thumbs up for AP Tourb.

This was my thought as well.

Out of the two I'd get the AP. Like Karl said the font on the Lange is so small and the dial is a bit busy for me. I prefer your Pateks and RMs to both of these so I could not see either piece getting much wrist time with the beauties you already have.

watchucallit · 30 October 2016, 10:46 PM

i am a fan of both brands.. Own two AP and one ALS. I also like both choices here but I voted for the ALS. I just think this is such a spectacular piece with all those functions. However with middle aged eyes-- I am not sure I could read the dial well enough. I love the way the PR indicator is set off to the side.. I think both are great choices but still slight slight edge to the ALS.

conkers · 31 October 2016, 12:06 AM

Lots of good observations there guys thanks!

kneedeep · 31 October 2016, 12:08 AM

Not especially drawn to either but voted AP.

subtona · 31 October 2016, 12:11 AM

Lange

VICI · 31 October 2016, 12:18 AM

AP has much more presence.

s14roller · 31 October 2016, 12:31 AM

Love AP but ALS takes it for me here

locutus49 · 31 October 2016, 01:39 AM

AP all day long

lapince · 31 October 2016, 05:22 AM

The AP is awesome, saw it in Paris, but they told me they were very hard to sell as they weigh a ton, but it is stunning, and I don't care for tourbillons, but the Lange is also amazing... so both

Left wrist · 31 October 2016, 06:17 AM

I didnt scroll down to see the photos! Didnt realize we were talking such heavy weight pieces.... The ALS in this case (note, I voted for AP lol)

bayerische · 31 October 2016, 08:06 AM

Of these two, the Lange.

WhatTheDeuce · 31 October 2016, 08:17 AM

Datograph for me. That is the one watch I am dying for but will never get. Doh!!!!

That Lange is beautiful!

drgoro · 31 October 2016, 12:22 PM

Both gorgeous, Lange wins this one in my book.

alexlt730512 · 31 October 2016, 12:41 PM
