- Unboxing the brand new Longines Spirit Zulu Time GMT. I share my initial thoughts as well as discuss the functions and features of this watch. Thanks for watching!
I have a 7” wrist (~17.5 cm).
Finally someone who moves the bezel on the unboxing, thank you!
Thanks for tuning in!
One of the best looking watches in the last few years. It has an amazing movement, unbeatable price, and the pedigree of Longines.
£3,800 and so im guessing $4,500 :)
What a banger. I would take this over a Submariner or BB any day and still have pockets stuffed with cayysh.
I think you meant kayshh
Yeah it’s a great looking watch. I’m definitely interested in the blue dial.
The large hole at the bottom where the warranty cards are should have the large instruction manual that covers every single Longines movement. Really don’t understand why that’s missing.
They have a QR code on the warranty card and you get it electronically now. Just bought one.
When it comes to fine imitation watches, gussl delivers. I've bought from them several times, and I've never been let down.
I'm getting one within next few weeks. I love this watch. It's the #2 watch of 2022 imo. The #1 is the grand seiko $350k watch (I forget it's name, but only 20 of them in the world). Of the attainable... this is watch of the year.
I agree. I think this watch will be a hit for them. It easily competes with/is better than other GMT offerings in its price range. If you’re a pilot watch fan, it’s a no brainer.
Hopefully they become more available, these are already disappearing quick it seems!
@@rstrimp226 I agree. My jewler said he is getting one in in 2 weeks. I'm excited. I chose the green/black version. But I want all 3
I think this dial would be a big hit even with a 3 hand movement to bring down cost.
@@porscheoscar That is basically a regular spirit .
The black and green bezel models are stunning.
The screw down crown is a plus with no crown guards. Nice watch!
i ordered a green one with steel bracelet and the leather strap from longines....can`t wait to get it the next days.. 🙂
How much was the extra strap?
@@Martinmoellerable ..here in austria € 340,-'... but i got the watch for € 2.750,-- so it was ok...now the price is a little bit higher since 1. july .€ 3.080,--
@@MartinmoellerableI bought mine with the strap and had to order the bracelet from Longines directly for $360 US.
Great videos buddy. I was debating on the Tudor GMT and this watch. That black dial and blue accent makes it look killer. Thanks for sharing.
Yes is a personal taste and you prefer this one over the Tudor BB GMT. I prefer the Tudor over the Longines and to be honest, is a better watch. I trie both and finally bought the Tudor.
Thank you for the video and congratulations for your new Longines.
I like the watch and plan to order. I have many in black and one white. I'm interested in blue but not sure. Never owned a blue watch. Nice info thanks
Thank you for stopping by! They are all excellent looking watches. You really can’t miss here. The make it hard to choose!
Just got this watch and it’s amazing.
Only thing is the lower half of the bezel wobbles when I push on it.
Back to the dealer I think??
The black dial with bracelet or strap are both in stock at Longines.
Nice review. Looks good! Always stick with what you like! J
It’s been a best seller! The green bezel is out of stock, we have just limited stock of each! Btw I work at the Flagship in NYC ;)
It does seem to be a great hit! Thanks for the inside info. Do you sell the straps separately at the store? It appears the Longines site is sold out and I’d like to grab a strap for it. I also hear there’s an exciting new release tomorrow as well???? Haha thanks for stopping by!
Is the 37mm avail?
The camera doesn’t do it justice. Looks even better in person.
Nice watch, most likely my next purchase
You’re going to love it!
That big slot under the wooden box used to hold a thick paper instruction booklet for most Longines models. I guess they have do away with it as part of going green.
OR...it was a display watch and someone swiped the book...my Spirit came with all the goodies last year. We'll see what happens this year...Green Bezel leather strap on order.
@@gbtriumph3216 I was at my local Longines boutique last week and ask about this and they confirmed no more thick booklet. Switched to online instruction by QR code.
Booklet is gone. The QR code is on the warranty card and you get it electronically now. Ironically, mine came with a small hardcover book about the history of Longines(not in the slot, but separately). Great watch.
Been lusting after this too. My only real question is which one??? I'm thinking either the blue dial or the black. The green bezel one with grey dial and gold accents doesn't really do it for me and I have an Alpinist as my green and gold go to. The blue dial seems sportier but the black dial version here with the blue GMT hand looks so damn sophisticated in a kind of under the radar way. Decisions...Decisions!!!
They did make it hard to choose! The blue one is very sporty looking. I’m sure whichever you choose you’ll love it!
@@rstrimp226 well...I got mine and went with the blue...totally captivating and sooooo frickin gorgeous 😁👍
@@kevintyrrell9559 congrats!! The blue dial is very captivating for sure. Enjoy it!
Subscribed!
I recently got the 42mm Zulu with the blue dial. There’s a video on RUclips showing that the date isn’t quite centered in the window (date shown slightly shifted to the left). Do you notice that on yours? I do notice it on mine, but consider it negligible. I do notice that my watch wears a little top-heavy and in hindsight I wish I would have gotten the 39mm version. But still love this watch for the money!!
I want this watch so bad. Nice review
Thank you! Hope you’re able to make the leap, it’s certainly a great one!
@@rstrimp226 depends on the wife…
Gorgeous watch. But the date wheel roll over take a good 45minutes after 12 midnight to set to the next date.
Just got mine and yes, I thought I was seeing things. Mine is doing the same thing and I just got it out the box
Yup…
beautiful watch, I wonder it's size and weight "on the wrist"
Tomorrow I'll look at the blue version at my dealer. I'm very curious which one I like better. The blue or the black variant.
I ordered mine from Longines and the leather travel pouch is packaged separately from the watch.
I think I would have preferred a Little bit thicker Hands but the Watch Is really beautiful anyway
12:12 he sets the watch to 420 give him a thumbs up.
This watch would benefit from a quality bracelet, like Tudor's, so that the fit is comfortable and does not wring. There would be no price for them.
Do you agree that Tudor has a better bracelet and a better fit on the hand?
Hi! Could you tell us what's you wrist circonference? Thanks
Very nice,
Yes :! ▶️
Wish they had a smaller one like 39 or 40mm I would consider selling my spirit 37 for one
At what time does your watch change date? Exactly 12mn or some minutes before or after? Is it a slow date-change or a jump? Thanks!
It’s definitely a slow change. As far as when exactly it ticks over, I haven’t noticed yet. Maybe if I have to reset it I’ll run it up and check.
Date takes 45 minutes to change over…at least. Only complaint I have
Wish they made a 40mm
Wish it had female endlinks though.
What’s your wrist size bro
Watch is kinda too big but nice looking
Hey thanks for the comment! Yea, it’s probably as big as I’d go. It’s a big 42mm if that makes sense. Camera probably exaggerates it a little. Lugs don’t overhang for me which is my sniff test.
I appreciate the wrist shot, but knowing your wrist size would be helpful.
I’m about a 7 inch wrist. I updated the description. Thanks for stopping by!
Hello jerry
Why do people like clicking
Nice. But to much stars for me.
⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Beautiful watch!
It's a junk watch it's way too big I'm telling you it's a piece of junk you should have gone with the tutor for our even probably last money you could have got the black Bay 58
