    One of my favourite, most underrated watches is the Longines Evidenza worn by Le Chifre in Casino Royale.
    Everyone loves Daniel Craig's Seamaster in that film, but Le Chifre had the better timepiece.

      Internally the evidenza is massive let-down though - its just a regular, round movement sitting in that tonneau case, unlike their 40s originals with the rectangular movements.

    Longines Legend Diver with the Milanese, love the watch. Amazing quality on the vintage and sportier pieces. The new selection coming out, especially the Spirit Zulu, just wow for the price, when compared to others in the range, in my humble opinion.

    An amazing brand. I think they really have mastered the "modern vintage" watch. I own the Big Eye and it manages to find time on my wrist very, very often. I think that the value for money is phenomenal with these.

    I am new to this world...recovering Apple Watch addict...I decided that I am going to spend around £2000 on my first piece. Obviously not near the Rolex/Omega or even Tudor end of the playing field, but I was considering a TAG, because in my mind that is a good brand (!?). But the more of these videos that I see, the more I realise two things: 1. TAGs have a terrible reputation among enthusiasts 2. Longines provides amazing value for money and has a great reputation. I think I am going to start with the HydroConquest. It seems like a good, affordable automatic piece.

    Excellent to see spotlight on Longines, but hour angle watch was Lindbergh collab AFTER his historic flight… basically the watch he would have loved to have. These moments in horology often get glossed over, like Rolex INVENTING the dive watch with the sub… ahem… FIFTY FATHOMS. And then again with the GMT Master… ahem… GLYCINE AIRMAN. Cheers!

    You are mistaken for "lower down the prestige chain" with "well known".
    They are no 4 at the moment by market share, behind Rolex, Omega and Cartier but ahead of everyone else - including Patek, AP and Vacheron Constantin - the so called "holy trinity".
    Hardly what I would call "not necessarily the most well-known"...
