The difference is in the details with this one. Great finish and dial details. With accuracy like that, you can set it and forget it for over a week. 👍🏻
Longines are making some fantastic watches at the moment and the Spirit line are some of the best. I prefer smaller watches (no I’m not a child I just don’t want to look like a mobile phone salesman!). Why this rather than the Tudor Ranger? I’d buy this but I already have an Explorer 36mm so can’t find a good enough excuse.
Agreed brother. It more so a preference. I can easily pull this off in 40 mm but the lugs were a bit long so I went with 37mm. If prob prefer a 38 at least since it is a pilot watch tbh.
Thats the plan! You could buy it on leather for about 250$ less but I opted to buy the bracelet version and bought a leather strap with a deployant buckle from Longines.
Perfetto... lo posseggo anche io con quadrante blu. Miglior rapporto qualità/prezzo....dimensioni ottime per polsi da 16/17cm. Tra l'altro neanche Rolex ti dà una confezione così bella. Ciao
Both IWC and Baume & Mercier are part of the Richemont group. B&M make a 3-hander in 40mm x 10mm with 5 days power reserve for under 3K. But IWC needs a 42mm x 13mm case? 🙃
In the 37 mm model it is only push pull. In the larger models it is screw down. In the beginning of the video the crown in out to hack the movement, later in the video it is pushed into place and closer to the case.
I've owned both, longines is good for the money but iwc mark is like the submariner of pilot watches, the design and feel cannot be matched by longines
The date is perfectly aligned with the markers on this 37mm model. I almost didn't notice it. Perfect!
Yes! And the second hand diamond aligned perfectly with the minute diamond index
Looks amazing. I love the dial. Looks like an elegant pilots watch
Thank you bachem
Excellent video! I own this watch myself and it is simply stunning. Quality and class walk with this piece. Mine is running +-0 s/d.
Agreed! Thanks for watching brother.

Yes my most accurate watch !
it is beautiful! looks great!
good luck with your UA-cam channel!
Thanks brother!
Awesome watch - Longines really has some great options and are worth looking into for sure
Yes they have been one good streak recently.

Very beautiful watch,
Looks better than Rolex explorer 🤗🤗
😂
And more affordable 😂
Thank You, love This watch but UA-cam content about This specific version is too rare
That’s why I made the video brother! I’ll post some shorts videos with some alternative straps on the coming days…
Very nice watch, I’m sure will look great with brown leather strap also.
Thats the plan! You could buy it on leather for about 250$ less but I opted to buy the bracelet version and bought a leather strap with a deployant buckle from Longines.
Measure the case size from 2 to 8 or 4 to 10.
Noted. Thanks.

Thank you for watching
It has a dressier design compared to the IWC.
The dial does for sure. The new IWC with the bracelet is heading that way. Thanks for watching.

Good point.
Does the crown screw down? It looks like it sticks out pretty far.
In the 37 mm model it is only push pull. In the larger models it is screw down. In the beginning of the video the crown in out to hack the movement, later in the video it is pushed into place and closer to the case.
@@HeyHabibsWatches On closer inspection I realized the reflection of the crown on the polished case looked like a stem.
37 mm is a kids size.
Haha it was this or a 40 and I referred the shorter lugs on this. I wish it was 38 mm but what can you do.
Nice watch but not a rival for the iwc.
I agree 😅
I disagree. I've owned both brands. Sold the IWC.
Wow interesting that you sold the IWC. I’m not shocked though.

Seems like the most logical take
37 mm is a child size.
