You might expect the watch i'd never sell to be an Audemars Piquet or a Patek Philippe, but in reality, the watch andrew would never sell would be his Longines Avigation BigEye.
What would be the watch that you would never sell?

My never sell watch would be my Hamilton Khaki King. It represents my son being born.
Same with my Rolex OP I wore it when my daughter was born and bought it right when I found out she was on her way
Do you enjoy your hamilton?
I'm looking to buy, but not 100% convinced
@ryMervx the best things about watches are linking them to memories and story’s for me
Great watch overall too though hahaha
@@UA-cam_is_full_of_trolls I wear my khaki king everyday, one of my favourite watches. It takes a beating too
Longines! True watch enthusiasts know this is a company with heritage and amazing movements. Beautiful!
Longines are very under rated. I have a cheaper quartz movement basic classic over 21 years on 4th battery that keeps great time and is beautiful
I agree but that’s how Swatch has chosen to position their brand. Longines has a lot of history but to be quite honest, it’s just too affordable of a brand to be respected.
@@freegibran”too affordable to be respected” that might be the dumbest shit i’ve ever heard 😂😂
@@nsnsikdksksksospapap Seeing as how you read it and didn’t hear it, proves you’re exactly the kind of customer Longines is looking for. Godspeed.
@@freegibranI’ve never heard of watch companies needing to be expensive to be respected, especially at the kind of level like Longines.
@@freegibran casio is highly respected by basically anyone and they are cheap af
Wear as daily beater Almost 5 years.. still stunning🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank God finally I see someone talking up this great watch brand.
I bought the titanium blue dial version of this watch 5 days ago. It's an absolute beauty and incredibly well priced. I love it. The Longines Heritage Collection and Spirit line are some of the most attractive watches out there.
I feel like everyone can agree that nobody would sell a watch that has some sort of a personal connection to it. Everything else is expendable 🤷♂️
IMO one of the best looking chronographs
Love my Big Eye too!! Fantastic piece!! 👏👏🔥🔥
No, it's great on nato & such a beautiful piece there 👌🏻✨
My first watch was a sekonda bought by my parents for me one year for Xmas when I was around 7/8 yrs old so 1975/76, I’d give anything to have that watch now
To be honest it’s one of the most attractive dials I have ever seen
I've got a trench watch from 1905 from elgin that I cherish. It would be a toss up between my trench and my Minerva field watch from ww2 germany.
I have 2 watches I'd never sell. My Hamilton Khaki Navy Scuba and my Seiko SRPF03 Samurai. I just love'em.
I've the same two watches and love them both,Sam was my first swiss watch, Hamilton was my first swiss watch 😁
Wow, this one immediately went to #1 on my wish list.
I own a flagship automatic 18k gold, love that watch
I’m mostly obsessed with Tudor lately, but that Longines is going in my collection soon.
Big eye is amazing
I never sell my first, first watch, first automatic, first luxury watch, and then i ended up with 12 watches that i would never sell...
I love Longines, so underrated
Their conquest heritage 35mm is a lovely watch
Great Choice !! Love the Big Eye !
I love the big eye, sold mines because the chronograph is a pain to use, a standard chronograph layout (speedmaster) is much easier to read vs the 3x’s tables on all typeXX watches have. Still a great looking watch.
The Avigation Big Eye Titanium is my favorite watch.
I agree man I have some heavily priced wrist time pieces. Still to this Eighty dollars fifty fathoms knock off does pretty good.
I'd never sell my watches as people would never want to buy them 🤣 I think watches are a personal choice, some history or story behind them there's always a reason. I don't think I could buy a watch and say it's an "investment"
Longines make some gorgeous watches if I had the money I would definitely pick one up
Very good looking watch, I would like to try and find one used.👍⌚👌
Longines Avigation BigEye!! what a watch, great choice!
I wouldn’t sell my seiko 5, my first real watch, so that’s a keeper…
My first to third watches were all seiko , not that I would sell , it’s just , nobody would buy mine as a used one since they are so affordable new 😂
@@jeff346 you’d be surprised. I bought a seiko skx007 about 7 years ago and it’s worth well over twice the price now even if I sold it used.
I have a longines and it's great. Also have a very nice tissot, don't break the bank, know your watches and there's quality out there for good value
I have my eye on a few Longines, they are gorgeous and seem to have good value. Tissot (PRX blue) and Tudor (BB58 blue) owner here. Between a number of micro-brands and Longines, I’m having a tough time deciding… maybe by the time a big birthday comes in Feb I’ll treat myself…
@@Orozco_PNWI dont know if you will see this, but what did you end up buying? I am curious as I myself ended up buying from Longines.
@@weltenfresser3546 I actually got the call from my AD and picked up the Rolex Datejust 36 in sunburst blue! Loving it so far, but still have my eye on Longines with their 38mm green Conquest (which looks like a better green than the mint green Datejust!)
Marathon Jumbo Pilot CSAR will leave the Earth with me. A true work horse
What's the price point on these pieces? Beautiful watch
I'd never sell my Tiffany & Co. Chronograph quarter repeater.
Absolutely loved this watch (the blue dial) in pictures and dreamed of it for so long. It was not available anywhere in my country. When I went to Qatar for the World Cup, I found it in one of the malls and got extremely excited. Tried it on and I must say I was quite disappointed. The chronograph hand was misaligned (I know, it can be adjusted) and I just couldn’t stand that big eye 😂 so it very quickly was dethroned as one of my grail watches. That being said, I’m glad you love yours!
Mine is a Festina chrono, my first “proper” watch gifted by my mom, it’s worth maybe 200-300$ but never going to sell it
Gorgeous... eventhough I prefer divers. This tachograph is pure class
Definitely I would never sell the 1964 Omega Speedmaster Professional that I inherited from my late father after he passed away two years ago.
Better than richard mille
Wow, very nice watch
Speedmaster for sure. Iconic and just so reliable and legible.
Love it but why do watch brands need to print automatic on the dial?
Almost everyone does it. It’s so that you don’t forget and put a battery in it
I fuel manage my airplane with this watch. It’s practical for flying and retro cool. Feel like the golden age of aviation.
I love my Big Eye!
Totaly agree I have the same watch and a bunch of otherss (including rolex omega) and this is my favorite
There’s nothing wrong with the nato on it. Aside from the strength of the hardware on the strap itself, they’re all essentially just as good as any other nato.
Good marketing, almost bought one 😂
I’m so keen to know .. where did they buy those clocks in the background??
I've done large hotel buys since 2008. Done with retail and doing online sales. Looking for buyers want steady flow if high end watches, fine jewelry. Interest?
Which longines is that? I not super familiar with their brand
Bigeye avigation
I’ve a lovely collection from cartier to ap. The watches i wouldn’t sell are pretty much all of my Tudor pieces.
What is it called
I was thinking of getting spirit green edition, but I realized it's too thick, might think of taking the big eye
For me it’s my seiko alpinist
Nobody would buy that watch second hand though..😅😅😅
I love this freaking watch. I would never sell any of my G shocks. They are the most important watches to me and they are also the cheapest.
What’s wrong w/ that particular nato?
I got the same longines , I’m gonna keep it because I tried to sell it watchbox and they said no thanks .
Do you know the model number?
Nothing extra ordinary here
There is another longines on my list but i feel this one
I would never sell my iced out RM because it’s worth fuck all now
I have two watches that represent my 2 best friends. One of my friends just passed away from brain cancer. He wore the Bulova moon watch. Fuc(Instagram censorship) k cancer.
My explorer probably. Was the first object I ever spent a good chunk of my own money on
Absolutely love this watch!
Most handsome chrono ever produced
IF "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" was a watch...I don't think that I will find 5 guys to love that watch 😅
Damn, now Im'a needing to go look up a new watch, that's gorgeous !
I owned this watch for a very brief amount of time. Fell in love with the dial, but the case is way too slab sided and thick
If it were the difference between making that ten percent ownership of the property you wanted... Yeah, you should sell it. Property is so much more important and infinitely more valuable.
Love my bigeye. So satisfying to start, stop & reset.
Y’all don’t need those watches, y’all don’t even fly
Too rich for my blood, but i love it!❤
Whats the models name?
How much??
This is the only watch i have
I hate this video so much that I just purchased it. Ughhh. Such a beautiful piece.
The rolled up sleeves. Creepy.
I work in a charity shop I had to sell a watch of this brand
Tastes change, and nothing is permanent.
Except: Death and Taxes…. 😁
That a good make .
This reminds me of dudes in lifted trucks that never touch the dirt
I’d sell that for food if I was hungry lol
Try a Blancpain 2185F
Don’t freaking tempt me with the Big Eye 😡
Get it, get it! Second hand ones are quite affordable, however I have noticed of late they are starting to get the attention of collectors. Especially the original GPHG one in this video.
He’s saying that coz he doesn’t have an AP or Patek😂
What is the reference on this one
Longines was god tier until the quartz era took over.
And who turned down £300k so not to schill ? 'Ol Timmy toff snob Adrian ?
I’d never sell my 216570.
It looks like a cheaper version of a Breguet XX
3atm W/R is a total deal breaker. This watch looks amazing, but that’s kinda silly these days.
It’s for a pilot not much swimming going on in the sky pal
Ai Peis ?!?! 😂
Yeah, not keen
Tried it on… it shrunk on my wrist to looking tiny.
Which is better Longines or Tag Heuer
Rolex
@@WatchUnwind was my question" which watch you can't purchase even if you have the money to buy it because ADs have created artificial demand by keeping supply short"?
It seems that hobbyists agree to dislike TAG. Of course there are TAG fans and Hublot fans.
@@rambo68 I had a long response to this question I was jk about Rolex. Weird seems they deleted it sorry about that.
both are crap
Banger, but there's a reason you never showed the thickness. LOL. Unweildy
My never sell is a Sub my grandfather gave me just before he passed
Beauty
I love mine
What? Pilot look down at big eye sub dial so they don't get confused. In that case he's not fit to be a pilot. Look at the so many dials inside the cockpit - shhheeesh
What's Nay Do-Like Po Tay Doh?
