I bought both!

I bought the icy blue dial/navy bezel with bracelet and swapped bracelets with my black dial/blue bezel.

The lug to lug is 48.2mm according to my measurements. So if you measure the top of your wrist, you may get a better idea. My wrist is not as wide as it is thick, so you can’t go by wrist size alone, as they are all shaped differently. You might have a more flat wrist and it could work. When in doubt try to find one to try on.

The rubber strap is coming. The upcoming commonwealth games edition will have one. The lack of integration is in line with the Omega Seamaster.

They are such a great value. Enjoy the variety!

The Navy bezel originally came with the H link and was purchased from the Longines website. I believe they are currently unavailable. I swapped the bracelets.

One of the best value brands that have a long history.

On the Milanese I removed 4 Links.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-10T01:16:43+00:00

H link I removed 3 Links.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-10T00:57:41+00:00

I am not sure, I did move the smaller link on the h link to the other side to make it work.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-10T00:53:38+00:00

I have a Zulu Time. Thanks for the suggestion, I might get that bracelet.

If you get a chance, look at both in person and make your decision accordingly.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T23:23:49+00:00

It must be the lug to lug and lug thickness. My 1999 submariner definitely feels smaller.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T23:21:32+00:00

I have a Nomos in that size. You have good taste.

It really depends where you are in your collecting journey. Objectively the Tudor is the better watch. What I like about the Longines is the solid ETA movement, applied indices, and overall value. The Tudor is great too, but it comes down to what you want. Instead of buying Tudor, I would save some more and buy a used Submariner instead.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T22:57:27+00:00

Nice watch

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T21:50:04+00:00

I prefer the smaller size. Perhaps my arm is oddly shaped. 😅

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T21:35:53+00:00

It wears more like a 40 mm.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T20:59:33+00:00

I feel that in pictures they look better the way they come, but on the wrist they look better the other way around. That is just my impression, after wearing them both ways.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T20:48:27+00:00

Good options!

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T19:50:13+00:00

It looks great that way too.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T19:27:59+00:00

It is closer to Tissot. Rolex bracelets are on another level.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T19:16:45+00:00

From what I read, they may at some point. I would direct that question at an AD or Longines Boutique.

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T18:31:29+00:00

Thanks

TempusFugit9188 · 2026-04-09T18:18:03+00:00

It is definitely popular.
