[Alternative] - The alternative of the Alternative...

Hey Everyone,

I have to say that I built a very diverse collection and I am planning to stop buying watches after """complete""" what I imagine be my full collection.

After that, I will save money for my grail, the beautiful Glashutte Original Panomaticlunar (AKA the not-lange1, I know that G.O. is unique on its own merits, I just couldn't resist).

My question for you all is:
Does anybody know any alternative for this watch under USD 5K?

Cheers!

That's a highly complicated watch, with an off center pinion, small seconds, moonphase and big date complication.  I don't think that you're going to find anything under $5K for the simple reason that no off-the-shelf movement has those complications.  You need an in-house movement for that, which means additional R&D, which means that the watch costs more $$$.

Uau! So, this is a "almost-regulator-watch" with a fly-back minutes and moonphase.... very nice, very nice!

Louis Erard makes some really good looking regulators under 5k. I know the GO isn't a regulator, but I think a regulator would best mimic the multiple, dial layout.

In terms of quality and complications, I suspect there is no more alternatives of alternative..but I sincerely hope someone can prove me wrong. I would like to know if there is any myself.
