But prefer diver's styles and chrono's.  The Conquest Chrono I really like. Think if I were to get a Longines Chrono I may Go for the Big Eye (Avigator Chrono). I did like the Longines Hydroconquest GMT a bit more than the Zulu Time. I like serious, purpose built watches.IMHO I think Longines has really stepped up their game. If buying for Enjoyment or Investment, I think any modern Longines is a good buy now. I can see them as a future competitor to Tudor.What they do need to do to get there, better bracelets. I like the styles, but there is something about screws versus pins that says luxury to me. I think the straps that come with them are very high quality as well, but again I do not have a modern Longines.Nomos is a bit different than the bigger names though. They strike me as a watch guy's watch. It lacks the universal appeal (non watch sickness people) of something like a Rolex or Omega, but a true watch aficionado would appreciate and be okay with nobody ever noticing. Longines is mixed.Hate to say this, but my idea of a watch is mechanical or automatic, good lume, respected name that people recognize, and tough. Longines is getting there, I hope they make it. The Conquest series reminds me of the non GMT Rolex Explorer Series, without the homage look. The Conquest Chrono really reminds me of the Daytona, I really think non-watch people would confuse it to be a Rolex Daytona.    Thank you for asking my opinion.By the way, love Seikos, Citizens and Invictas. My wants do exceed my resources.</blockquote>
