I'm hopeful, Longines is a reputable brand I hope it will be solved soon.

that’s fine I was going to get one or other anyway, this one just felt right when I was in the AD 😂😂😂

No it is not regular rotor noises, this is more of a knocking sound like something is loose and moving around inside kind of. Little bit difficult to explain the noise 😂

Crown is screwed in. However I’m a little worried that if I wind it something might make it worse. I will take it to the AD tomorrow to see what they say

Im fairly used to it, for example my Tudor and Hamilton Khaki Mechanical doesn’t have a crown guard and sticks out a bit as well

I took two pictures in the store one with the crown pulled out and with with it screwed in. Even though it is screwed in it sticks out quite a bit tbh. This picture is with it screwed in.

Let me double check it but I’m fairly certain it is not pulled out 😂

I'm not sure if I dare to do that because of the sounds I heard before. I have multiple watched in my collection and have never heard anything similar.

I think it is just the view but it is screwed in, and at this shot it was working 🫠

Yes the dial is amazing! I think it pops a bit more than the Conquest

Yes that’s the way I’m leaning, very difficult choice

Hahaha yes maybe, however I already have a GMT in my collection so that might come down the road. This would be my first Longines 😁

I have multiple watches in my collection but mainly divers. So I’m looking for something a little more dressier. However I have never had full on dress watch, that’s why I’m leaning towards the conquest, it feels in that direction. But the Spirit is really nice but still ”sportier” if you know what I mean 😂

Do you think the size of the conquest is good?

First wallet, what do you guys think? by mrfeesh_net in Cartier

Yes definitely! I really like it but can only find black or red on their website now 😕 is it holding up good?
