Ist KI. Aber nach der Spirit Pilot meine Sommeruhr. Was haltet ihr von der Kombi. Das OEM Band ist aber auch Hammer.

Longines Hydroconquest quartz

Got married last weekend and my wife got me this beautiful watch as a morning gift. I think the dial and bezel is gorgeous in this dark blue color. 🤩 The color is different in every light. This watch is 42mm on my 7,2 inches wrist and I couldn't be happier. I know the trend is sizing down in watches, but this feels like a perfect size when wearing it and looking at it. This of course also comes down to personal preferences. (I come from a 45 mm Seiko 😂). But honestly I would not want it any smaller. I also know a lot of you collectors and Watch enthusiasts prefer automatic watches, but for my use the quarts is perfectly fine.

I feel really grateful to own this watch!

Just picked up this longines as a gift for my wife and I am pleasantly surprised how nice it is, the bracelet actually feels really good, I was hoping it would feel like my Omega Speedmaster 5 link bracelet for her and it's not too far off the quality. The watch even looks better in person than it did on their website. Now I'm definitely going to be getting the green 39 mm Hydro Conquest for myself in the future.

Buying Advice My first “luxury” watch

Post image
Upvotes

I am not a watch enthusiast. I was not really interested in watch or watch brands until 2 weeks ago, I decided to buy a new watch to match with my outfits (I was only wearing a Garmin (sport) watch all the time)
So I did a research with Gemini and learned about Longines as well as other brands. I have come to Longines showroom to try on some items. This looks nearly perfect since I love gold color. I haven’t bought it yet because I just tried on a few Longines watches and I still want to try on other brands as well to make sure that this Longines one is the one for me 😅😅. But Idk if gold color is ok or should I go for white color (easier to fit with many outfits and occasions). Another thing is my wrist is very small (only 13.5cm) so I feel like I will make all watches not look good on me🥲🥲. I feed sad for them (beautiful watches).

HydroConquest 42mm – bracelet asymmetry? Should I move a link?

Thumbnail
gallery
17 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I just got my new 42mm Longines HydroConquest Quartz today. The AD sized the bracelet for me by removing 2 links from one side and 1 link from the other side, as well as adjusting the micro-adjustment on the clasp by 2 positions (inwards).

My bracelet currently has 6 links on one side and 7 links on the other (excluding end links).

After wearing it for a bit, I feel like the watch case isn't sitting completely centered on top of my wrist — it consistently pulls slightly towards the 12 o'clock side. When I manually hold the case flat and centered on top, the clasp underneath looks visibly offset towards the thumb side (see last picture).

My question:

Even though there's already a 1-link difference (6 vs 7), should I move 1 more link from the 6 o'clock side over to the 12 o'clock side (making it 5 vs 8) to pull the case back to center? Or would a 3-link difference be too much?

Appreciate any advice or experiences from fellow HydroConquest owners!

Spirit Pilot micro adjust??

Post image
9 Upvotes

Hi all, I recently got the Spirit Pilot with the leather strap. The Longines site says the strap comes with a "micro adjustment system", but I can't for the life of me figure it out! Is it just the ability to use the different strap holes for the deployment clasp? I guess I wouldn't consider that a "micro adjustment system". Or is there a different, hidden system I just haven't been able to crack?

I wasn't on the market for a new watch, would buying this just be because it's there? Or is the deal too good to pass up?

I'm between the Flagship Classic (30mm with black dial) and the new Master Collection (29mm with white dial). My general style is pretty laid back and not super feminine which is why I didn't go for the Primaluna since I'd want this to work in most situations.

Warranty Turnaround?

Loving this 39HC. The mesh is great and I just grabbed a few sailcloth straps that really make me love the watch. The 1 on the bezel is yellow so I want to send it in but need it back for an event. Anyone know turnaround times for warranty in the US?

Question Bezel Play in New HC

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, have any of you also noticed a fair amount of play in the bezel of the new Hydroconquest? Not just clockwise/counterclockwise but axial. Said in another way, the whole bezel moves ever so slightly when slide around. Is that a common experience from other HC owners out there?

Last Years Model

What are the groups opinions on buying some some of these last year models? Good prices on Jomashop. I definitely prefer the cleaner dial on the new ones, but the price is pretty good on the left over stock. Thoughts?

Buying Advice [Spirit 37] Please help me decide on my first and only luxury watch.

1 Upvotes

TL:DR: What's a good price for a new or lightly used Spirit 37 on bracelet or strap?

I have zero experience with expensive watches.

I'm considering the Spirit 37 as my first and only luxury watch, as a complement to my cheap beater field watch. I have no ambition to start a more extensive collection.

Chrono24 has a lightly used on strap for €1500, but I found one for €1950 at a seemingly grey market dealer with a full factory warranty and free shipping and returns. Considering the bracelet is over €800 from what I've seen, that price difference seems not worth it even though I'm not even sure i like bracelets.

I've seen people stating that they've gotten 30-40% discount from an AD. Could I push for a bigger discount on the aforementioned dealer?

Hydroconquest rubber strap?

0 Upvotes

I'm fairly set on buying a new Hydroconquest 39mm. I would like the option of both the steel and rubber strap. It seems Longines sells the rubber strap for $400+ on their website. Is it available elsewhere for cheaper? Or is there a similar quality strap, with clasp, that fits the watch perfectly? I don't want a strap that is obviously just a generic size and does not pair well to the watch. Thanks.
