New SS Daytona, ceramic bezel
Pros: Highly demanded model, limited stock, guaranteed value appreciation, 5 yrs warranty, reasonable service cost.
Cons: Need to pay premium, you might want to see the movt at this price point, just another Rawlex

Lange 1 in white gold case
Pros:  Top notch movt, Extremely beautiful dail, precious metal, must have one Lange in my lifetime, Who else can topped the Swiss Trinity if not Lange?
Cons: Service support, handle with care, not as versatile

I would pick Lange.

But probably only because I refuse to pay a premium for something that should be readily available!

I think Daytona will be better choice in long run, the chance you feel regret is lower. I owned Lange before and still come back to rolex after that, so speaking from my real experience

Not many Lange models in the Daytona price range .... maybe one of the Saxonia references ?

Alternatively for the same price, you can't go wrong with an Aquanaut either, though that is just as difficult to get.

As much as I respect ALS and the Lange 1. As much as I love the Lange 1, I know for a fact that it would be difficult to have this watch as one for daily wear. It is uncommon, beautiful, deeply respected and a work of art. It still isn’t a practical watch to wear. I’d go Daytona over the Lange 1.

I would go for ALS as well purely because I'm not a fan of Daytona.

The Daytona Ceramic is a no-brainer beater that could be easily flipped with no losses if kept pristine, but the premium these days were quite crazy. I would rather go for more exclusive models like the YM40 Everose or Daytona Everose (as Chris mentioned above). Or better yet, get the YM40 Platinum at RM45k and use the excess RM40k to get a BLNR. That was the route that I recently ventured on.

A “no-brainer beater” at RM75k. I like this definition.

The madness of premium priced ceramic Daytona makes me angry... :Mad:

At that price, plenty of options, like used AP RO/ROO

If you dont plan to sell the watch in the future, then definitely Lange. If you plan to sell the watch in the future, then definitely Daytona.
