Yes I am very fortunate to being allowed to choose my watch instead of being given what they wanted. Knew nothing about watches before I got my Lange. I used to think the best watches were TAG, Breitling, Omega, Rolex et al.
Yes they are all still good watches (with a big chunk of marketing!) but the upper spheres of timepieces are incredible.
There are some toys to lust after that make a WAVAC seem cheap!
