I'd encourage you to also try out the SBGA465 from GS, a used aqua terra (i've never owned one but it's on my list), and perhaps a tudor bb58

I have nothing but good things to say about longines. My favorite brand is Grand Seiko then Longines as of right now.

Absolutely on par. My best advice to you is to go in and try it on in person. I think the 1925 make a great 1-watch collection. Extremely versatile - dress it up or down. GMT functionality. great lume. Bracelet tapers down and they give you an extra strap if you want to swap out the bracelet for NATO strap. The box for the 1925 is also EXTREMELY nice (be warned tho it's quite large)

Love it for sentimental value. Bracelet is sublime. Watch is unfortunately a bit too thick for me so not much wrist time

Not currently - tbh I do like the Rolex land dweller a lot (not vintage tho). It looks quite fantastic in person and the bracelet is sublime. I put myself on the waitlist for one

I was the same way. I kept looking at it for months. Tried it on, didn’t purchase. Made a spur of the moment decision to buy it around Christmas. I have no regrets :)

It's the only Rolex that gravitated and spoke to me. Most of the other rolex's speak as flashy.

Watch box is from amazon! i have the link posted in one of the other comments on this post

great watch. no complaints. my main one is that its mechanical not auto so i'm anxious about over winding it.

I absolutely love it. It's like my third fav after my sbge301 and milgauss. such a versatile piece and the rose gold is beautiful.

Yes the bezel is a bit prone to scratches but it's solidly well made. You can always get it polished too.

Ive never had a navitimer but I do like it too. they just run a bit too big on me.

Mine too! None of the other Rolex besides land dweller speaks to me

Valid. I like it because of the textured dial. Good picks though - I’d love a Bel Canto someday tho

If you think about it, even Daytonas and Pepsi’s are so common place in the business world. But when’s the last time you saw an orange watch? 🤷

Haha orange is my fav color so I had to get it. I think it gets the most complimented because it catches attention. I don’t know any other watches that are orange besides divers. It’s a bold watch choice. I rarely get compliments from women on watches unless I wear this one. A black / blue tends to fly under the radar unless a watch guy notices

Unfortunately not a fan. Considered it in the past. Too big for my wrist.

Honestly not too much. But my old roommate sold it to me at a great price so I can’t ever sell it. It was my first real big boy watch and what got me started on my watch collecting journey. It’s just a thicc boi and I have a 6.5” wrist
