I really like the 5107g, so I don’t think I would do it

Which way – Lange for Patek or vice versa?
I think the Lange looks more appealing on a few features, and if YG is not a problem colour-wise (assuming that’s the direction of change), then get the deal done, and start enjoying your new acquisition.

Not familiar with their respective values but I like the ALS more. 5107G is kinda boring.

I bought an ALS 308.021 last January from someone on timezone. I paid $12k for it. Between the two I prefer the ALS as I really like the big date function while still retaining a very dressy look in my opinion.

I would think the secondary market value is higher for the 5107 so would probably not trade without cash as well.

I love the 5170 references. It took me seeing them in person to realize how wearable they are.

Okay.
If you fancy something different or a bit of a change, why not?
