I got to actually handle a Lange a few weeks ago, the first time I got to see a watch at this level and I was overwhelmed! The quality is amazing. That said, if I had that kind of money for a watch, it would not be a Lange, nice as they are. I don't particularly care for their designs, too Teutonic for me. I much prefer a F.P. Journe and I imagine the quality is about the same.
As far as artistry and finishing for the price point of lines like the Panomatic series it's hard to beat GO. I love the idea/history of Lange, but I don't think I can justify spending the $ for what I'm getting at their entry level although the copper blue aventurine Saxonia model is quite striking . . . still for that much $ I'd rather try to get something like a Hajime Asaoka Tsunami or something or maybe a personalized star map Trilobe (another company I'm intrigued by but want to watch them grow a bit more). I'm in love with a lot of Lange, but I just don't entertain those watches beyond their entry level as reality. At least GO is realistic (well, more realistic in this non-realistic watch world we live in) and can scratch the lay out itch of the lange 1 to some degree while still very much being its own thing.

Easy choice (GO), but somewhat odd list to choose from. Comparing Sinn, Stowa, Damasko, Leco etc. in one poll and comparing GO, Lang & Heyne, Moritz Grossman etc. in another would make more sense to me.
Definitely Junghans for me. Great history pretty vintage watches and the new models - especially in the Max Bill line - are great 😊 👍🏻
Of the choice is GO but I have to say I’m a big fan of Muehle G!
