Thread: A Very Good "Bang for your Buck"! What do you think?

So Longines, at least in my opinion, is one of the better values for what you pay.

You get a good amount of "complication" per dollar, nice size, and reliability. Their designs are also very nice.

Took some pics of the one I use as a dress watch.

i dig it. simple and classy....

Love it. What's the ballpark price on that one? Looking to step up to something similar in the next few months.

Totally agree with you! I just hope you got a nice discount on it...

That is a good looking watch. ^^^ Can you explain? What is the story behind the discount?

Oh ya, "retail is for suckers"

Thanks guys, Ball park: can be had under 2k.

Oh wow, I like it..I like it a lot. Was thinking about a Hamilton for my next "dress watch" but I might change my mind and go with something like this. Thanks for the post!

Ok good... I know I can get at least 30-35% off at an AD on Longines.

HA! My father has a hand-wound Longines from maybe 30 years back, before I was born; plastic crystal and everything else was worn to a crisp from so much use over the years. He brought it to a local guy downtown who was thrilled to see such an old Longines; sourced some old factory parts and a thin alligator strap and it runs good as new. Its simplicity belies its elegance.

If I got this auto the nostalgia lulz would be through the roof in my family.

Best looking inexpensive watch i've seen in a while. Not very mainstream either.
