BREITLING, ROLEX, TUDOR, OMEGA, anybody into high end watches?

I think I'm going to be wearing a LONGINES HydroConquest very soon in 44mm. Looked at one today and wow! The quality you get for the price is unreal. Entry level Tag vs entry level LONGINES, Longines all-day-long, and it has a better movement and on top of that the pricing is way better. I'm trying to figure how/why Longines is cheaper. They blow Tag out of the water in my opinion on the entry level side of things.

If you are ever looking to get into or by another entry level luxury watch definitely give Longines a look see.

They certainly advertise less.

Do you have a link to the 44mm model? I'm only seeing 43mm. Thanks.

Honestly it's the name. In today's world it's all about Rolex, Breitling, & Omega. Tag is considered to be a step or two behind these (Of course I'll take a Carrara or Monaco any day). Once beyond that there are at least 100 other really good Swiss made watches. Longines falls into this category but with 189 years of history behind. Just look through their history on the website to realize how special they really are.

What's the difference between this and the $2400 model? Besides 1mm.

You got a part number to compare?....
May be the movement, strap, etc etc etc.

This is a brand I'm trying to familiarize myself with, so forgive my ignorance.

It's a special model only available in Longines Boutiques. It comes with an extra strap, a quick release bracelet and an upgraded movement. It also only comes in a 41mm size. Really for the Longines collector.

I bet that green dial looks killer in person.
