Hey all, Trusty and a few other dealers just released a version of the A. Lange Handwerkskunst. I think the dial is unique and exciting. The texture of the dial looks like something carved out of stone. What are your thoughts? http://www.ttw-1388.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=18&products_id=16232

As I am shaking off my Panerai addiction that lasted last 7 years, I'm finally ready to move on and keep only one of them. Plus I have IWC Ingenieur SS rep and Genuine Omega. Since I am attracted to more high end brands in general like Jaeger, A. Lange, Glashutte and Patek, here are some choices I came up with within the rep world. My first and obvious choice is a Nautilus 5711-1A SS Blue Dial. I see that the most recent "1:1" version comes with the newer SW200-1 movement. I'm looking at this one here: http://www.puretimew...t-edition-sw200 I don't really have any questions as far this model, looks like a no brainer to me and I will be getting one. All my questions between the lines are about movements, I'm hoping to have them last as I keep watches for a long time. Another model that I am finding pretty attractive is this one: http://www.kuvarsitw...roduct_id=31135 JAEGER LE-COULTRE DUOMETRE RETROGRADE POWER RESERVE I would of course get it from one of our trusted dealers so I'm only posting this link due to pictures being much nicer then our dealers take. I know it is not accurate to the Gen at all, but I don't really care cause it looks really cool. I have a question about the movement, it says it is a Seagull that I'm guessing is pretty good? Could anyone please comment on that. Another one that I like is this one http://www.kuvarsitw...roduct_id=30953 that looks like a rep of A. Lange 1815, I know this one is also inaccurate, does not bother me. My question is again about the movement, if anyone could please comment. I read another users review on this one as well so outside of the movement I do not have any other questions. Two more that I'm liking quite a bit are: http://www.yourtrust...products_id=703 with Lemania/Venus Hand Wind Chronograph, is that a good movement? I'm guessing it is pretty decent. Another one that I think looks very elegant is this one: http://www.kuvarsitw...roduct_id=30325 Now it's all Turkish on this page but from what I can decipher it looks like a copy of Venus movement, 17 Jewels, 50 hours power reserve. Google translate is not doing to good of a job with that text. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. As a summary, I will definitely get the Nautilus and probably 2 out of other 4 later. Thanks a lot!!!
