Correct two things on the video. It is a Longines Primaluna and before the final fact you missed a N on Longines. Besides that the video is amazing! I know the amount of work it gives you guys to do this. Please keep up a great work!
I agree. Excelent watches at a reasonable price tag!! I have five of them and just love! Other brands are great, but almost no one give what Longines does at the same price.
Longines, official timekeeper for the first Olympic Games in 1896. They also made the first chronograph wristwatch in 1913. I love that they're still working out of their original building #roots. I'm lucky enough to own a mechanical HydroConquest Chronograph. It's 12 years old but it looks like new and is accurate to within 5s per day.
In High School I worked at Carl’s Diamond Brokerage/Carl’s Jewelry. We carried many fine quality Watches. Longines was one of the fine quality Watch Brands. One of my best friends Father could not wear many watches because he was one of the rare individuals who “magnetized” watches. I put him in a Longine and he wore that watch for many years and would buy nothing else but Longine. Longine, in my opinion, ranks with the Best Watches in the World!
Fact: I purchased my first Longines watch recently from a Thrift Store online selling on eBay. It was on a short bid, and won it at $54. It is a 70s Olympian Mechanical watch, just mailed it our yesterday to have it appraised and get a estimated cost for service, cleaning, and polishing. Wish me luck!
The two watches handed down to me by my grandfather were a gold Tissot (Seaster Seven) and a Longines, (Flagship) both manual wind from the 60's and 34 - 35mm. As a late teen and 20's, I never wore them at first but as I got older I started to appreciate the quality and elegance of the pair and when I got the Longines serviced from the London department store, the manager took a note of the watch number and came up with my Grandads name and date of purchase, I told him it was handed down the family. He had a word with his manager and they decided to service the watch for free as they like their classic timepieces to continue to be used and seen for many generations to come. My mind was blown for the quality of service.
I Learned about Fine Time Pieces working at Carl’s Diamond Brokerage/Fine Jewelry in High School. Longines was one of the Fine Watch Lines We Carried. My best Friend’s Father and Grandmother “magnetized Watches”.... I put them in a Longines and they found Watches they Loved, enjoyed, And Time Pieces they wore the rest of their lives! They purchased several Models! I love Longines Beauty, quality, and durability!
I thought the Kentucky Derby was a 1.25 mile race, but according to this, it's not a distance race, it's a race for two minutes. Presumably, the horse that's in front at the two minute mark is the winner. Bit like Le Mans 24 hours I suppose.
I just bought a Longines Master Collection 190th Anniversary Edition in Stainless Steel. The high caliber quality and price ratio is perfect. I was definitely sold on it. 🍻
Longines and Omega are my favourites watches brands. I own a Longines Conquest Heritage and a Omega Speedmaster Professional (moon watch) and both since along time ago and in perfect condition and working perfectly.
@@NikhilThekken Firstly the price point of Grand Seiko Quartz is must larger. The precision of Grand Seiko Quartz is +/- 10secs a years which is slightly less precise than Longines V.H.P Even modified ETA developed Quartz Movement which Tissot uses in few of their models has accuracy maximum upto +/- 10secs a year. But, best part about the Grand Seiko Quartz Movements are they have BPS.
Well... #4: - they actually did miss the Big Eye Chronograph....Some guy showed up in the Longines Museum asking why this watch was not included in the collection of watches
some one know which longines she is talking about in 7:50 minute and 50 second, can some one send a link where i can find this watch? thanks in advance
LONGONES VHP probably most accurate watch in the world; also one of the sharpest : the lugs, the winder protectors and connection between case and bracelet are sharp enough to cut flesh ! Poorest finishing I ever wore .
This is a cheesy content-spam video, but I still crave a Legend Diver. I agree with others who appreciate the class without the absurd price tags, and Longines is cool that way. Don't get me wrong, I'm also a sucker for the crazy price points. But Longines is in a good place in the market, offering excellent value in legitimately serious watches. They do use ETA movements, which are excellent -- very accurate, reliable and serviceable. This is standard practice in this price range, and there's nothing inherently wrong with it. However it's also true that that the same movements are built into much cheaper watches. But I'm still getting a Legend Diver... that's unless I get the call from my Rolex AD. It's just no use trying to make sense of it, once bitten.
STOP SAYING "Future Billionaire"! It's alienating ACTUAL billionaires that may want to watch this channel but then hear that statement where you're implying this channel isn't for billionaires only "future" billionaires...
Guess he wanted you to have it. Probably thought of passing it down to you someday. Otherwise, who on earth would exchange for a Longines for a Ralph Lauren. .
Amazing!!! Love your videos! Can we get more videos on Tag Heuer, Hamilton, Tudor, Frederique Constant, Tissot, Montblanc and Rado please? Regards, David
Longines timed the Lindbergh trans Atlantic flight in 1927 even before developing the Angle Hour watch. Longines also was important in Norwegian explorer Raoul Amundsen's journeys. IMO this horse racing crap cheapens the brand.

What I love about Longines is that the price is so acceptable. Good quality with not crazy expensive
1000$ watches are still expensive bro.
@@ieatgrass108 it depends.. 🤷🏼♂️
I eat Grass if you think $1000 is expensive you shouldn’t be watching this channel

I agree. A good Longines will last you for life; wear it all the time. It will look as good as the day you bought it. Compare that to $200 watches
I just bought a longines today
Do you still own it and if so how has ownership been? I'm thinking about getting a conquest :)

Very honoured to have a great watch making legacy.... My first Swiss made luxury elegant Hydroconquest ❤
I love Longines it' s so afordable for a luxury watch
Less expensive than Seiko?
@@nayanmipun6784 Not than Seiko itself but cheaper than ,,Grand" Seike
😭never wore such expensive watches.💔💔💔💔
Bought my first watch back in 1983, a mechanical hand-wind 18k plated L1106 Longines.
YAY I've just bought a longines watch
Same
I was a bit surprised the most expensive Longines was just 17,000 USD. It’s truly beautiful though.
vintage longines 13zn have been sold in auction for 50k+, the sommatore

Interesting video....thanks.
Longines might as well promote and advertise their brand in Polo, the most aggressive sport on horse.
I think Audemars Piguet sponsors polo.
Longines VHP is the Worlds most accurate watch with +/- 5secs a year. This is a commendable feet of engineering
How about Grand Seiko Quartz
@@NikhilThekken Firstly the price point of Grand Seiko Quartz is must larger. The precision of Grand Seiko Quartz is +/- 10secs a years which is slightly less precise than Longines V.H.P
Even modified ETA developed Quartz Movement which Tissot uses in few of their models has accuracy maximum upto +/- 10secs a year.
But, best part about the Grand Seiko Quartz Movements are they have BPS.
the most accurate watch is citizen 0100. it runs +/- 1 second per year
The most accurate watch would be a radio/satellite controlled watch like citizen or g shock make, I would have thought?
Albert Einstein had 2… so they are good enough for a genius
I love my 1938 military heritage watch. It’s a gem Just bought it last week.
Got myself a Hydroconquest a year ago on birthday and still much loving it! Very reliable movement as well!
I love my Longines 23Z 1960
Great reporting...thanks....
Just got one on action that has 24 diamonds on the bezel, it's really nice!
Great Job on all videos! Thanks for the Great enriching information. Is there a video for Christie’s auctions house?
I have 2 Longine watches and 1 Cartier watch. The Longine watches are much better in quality IMHO!
I have a very flat Longines, I had for over 47 years now, still going well. Number on the back is, 15 264166.
