In the ever-changing space of the pre-owned market, what factors play out to change and effect how much certain brands and watches cost? One of them has to be the history, with a single model's or watchmaker's history becoming relevant in evaluating the cost of a watch. Jason and Alaina are here tonight to serve as our inside view of the industry and breakdown just what goes on behind the scenes. Make sure to tune in for wrist shots, market discussion, and more on The Trading Desk!

Patek Philippe OR A. Lange & Söhne? When it comes to quality of finishing, case and movement materials, and accuracy -- which brand does it better? Lange or Patek?
In this episode, Jason and Josh are going to do side by side comparisons to highlight key differences between Patek Philippe and Lange finishing techniques. They'll also analyze secondary market value of both brands and mention some of the hotter watches from these brands as of 2019.
Would you rather rock the A. Lange & Söhne Datograph Perpetual (410.032E) or the Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar (5270R-001)? How about the A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk (140.029) or the Patek Philippe Nautilus (5712G-001)?
