    I am a vintage style watch lover and Longines is by far the best brand for this imo. I own this very watch (but with gold hands + champaigne dial) and the Longines Conquest Heritage which is also a wonderful vintage model they offer even for a few hundred bucks less. Thanks for the wonderful presentation!

    I feel so attracted to Longines watches, but (in my humble opinion) the problem is that for someone like me who never, literally never, dress formal is kinda hard to find a good everyday Longines watch, apart from the Spirit line of course any suggestions?

    I have been trying to like Longines for years and have come to the conclusion that they are just a fundamentally flawed company. They are the guy in the bar that can’t stop talking about his glory days. If they can’t offer anything fresh, what’s the point? It’s to the point that it’s actually repulsive to me to hear “underrated Longines”. They WERE a great company, now they’re just an overpriced well made homage brand.

    • @jasongultjaeff9397
      @jasongultjaeff9397 Рік тому

      How can they be a homage brand when it is their own designs? What you say applies to 90% of the watch brands out there, tapping into and resurrecting their old and vintage designs. Or fundamentally just doing the same thing over again. Longines is no different here. They are also one of the biggest Swiss brands in terms of sales volume....

    • @acp02091
      @acp02091 Рік тому

      @@jasongultjaeff9397 Sales numbers mean nothing to my taste in collecting. It’s the fact that the vast majority of their designs are either direct copies of their old line up or slightly updated versions of their old lineup. They are homaging their own past, which is worse than taking risks and failing in my mind. Even their so called modern designs look dated or like an old design with a modern element shoe horned in like oversized numerals or chunky crown guards. Then they want to charge you thousands because they are Swiss and have continuity of operation. It’s a hard pass for me until they start doing something worth the money design wise.

    • @MrBacchus18
      @MrBacchus18 Рік тому +2

      Really disagree with you here. Longines has a heritage line with lots of great watches based on their own designs such as the Avigation Big Eye great complications at reasonable prices like the master collection, and modern watches like the new Hydroconquest GMT. If you don't like them that's cool but I feel like they've been killing it recently.

    • @acp02091
      @acp02091 Рік тому

      Hey, if you like plain oatmeal then you like plain oatmeal but I have yet to see a Longines that is beautiful enough to justify the price tag. Something about their design dna is dated and off putting. I’m also not a complications guy so I don’t particularly want GMTs, chronographs, moonphases, etc. I wanted to like the brand because so many enthusiasts like it and they have comparatively decent prices and their own designs but I’ve wasted so much time trying to find a reason to like this brand that that I’ve just written them off now.
