Longines is better than Tudor. Tudor is an homage brand, owned by the same company who is copying its own 70 year old design.
I think that the market positioning of rolex-tudor and Omega-Longines is really interesting: historically, Rolex has been the competitor for Omega, but with Tudor's moves with METAS certification and "exotic" materials like Ti and ceramics - similar to Omega's offerings - would appear to be saying "Omega isn't competitive to Rolex, just look at the lower-tier Tudors and see what we can do for less money;" yet here we see the response from Swatch with Longines clearly firing across Tudor's bow with a similar comparison to Tudor's novelties at better prices. That's a really interesting market dynamic at play.
Man, I always love your videos. Simple, clear, and EXTREMELY thoughtful.
I had BB GMT and now have the blue Longines 39mm Zulu and I prefer the case dimensions and style of the Zulu, it keeps perfect time and is very impressive in every way, I’m a big Tudor fan, but now a growing Longines fan too, great watch
21mm lugs for a 39mm case? WTF? Total deal killer for me. I definitely could have considered this otherwise. It's as if watch companies intentionally sabotage their own products.
Longines is knocking it out of the park! I believe Longines will be a very popular once again. Longines doesn’t get the recognition it really deserves.
I looked at the Tudor BB and then looked at the 42mm Zulu in Anthracite and Green on a metal bracelet. There is no comparison whatsoever. Zulu all the way in terms of style, functions, finish, quality and price.
42mm already competed against the BB. As the owner of the 42(green bezel)I generally like it but it’s at my limit lug to lug. The strap wears smaller and on the strap it looks more rugged, more Indiana Jones. The finish is great and it feels top notch. That said, I originally thought the 39mm would be a better size but the way it is deigned the lug to lug looks too long and somewhat disproportionate.
The Zulu is gonna be my next watch. Watch!
21mm bracelet and 5 stars : deal break 🙅♂️
Very good!
great video
I have the 42mm in black. I was not impressed with the blue GMT hand in media, but it looks great in person. Another difference between media and in-person is the color of the bezel. The bezel on the black is more of a dark charcoal. It is lighter than the dial. Love the watch. The only thing I'm missing from the experience is a quick-adjust bracelet. My watch is averaging +2 s/d in real-world conditions (wearing it).
I’m getting my Green Bezel 39mm Zulu GMT..
The 40mm three-hand really kicked of my love for the brand. The Spirit line really shines in that price range and I'd prefer it over anything from TAG or Tudor. To me it represents what the Air-King should have developed into after the 14000 rather than turning into a rocket car.
Finally a hit for longines. I have an admiral 5 star from 90’s, still beatiful
Glad I recently discovered your channel, very well thought out and concise content 👍🏼
I'd appreciate your opinion on the new Hydroconquest GMT, especially vs Zulu Time. A full video review would be amazing.
Great video. Great watch. I have the 42mm version which has a funny story.
Well said. This 39mm is a banger. But as you said - the lugs might float a little too high for some people's liking.
