I am pretty sure I was one of the people commenting about the need for a 38mm variant. I tried the blue 41 on and while it fit my 7 inch wrist fine, I'd really prefer a bit smaller. It's good to see Longines finally came through. The champagne dial doesn't do much for me, but I like literally every other color available. This really is a good value in that dressy sport watch area. It's 1/3 the cost of the Aqua Terra, and certainly much more than 1/3 of that watch. The Aqua Terra is an excellent watch (my father has the 38mm variant), but the lack of micro adjust can be levied against that as well. Would it be nice if the lume was a bit better? Sure, but at least there is lume. This isn't the kind of watch where you're always depending on it after hours in the dark. Kudos to Longines for another release proving the brand is moving up in the watch world. Thanks for doing a video on this one, as I hadn't even heard about this release.

Thanks for this video, she decided to buy the blue version in 38mm. My critaires were: waterproofing, size 36 or 38, the screw-down crown , protection couronne , date, simplicity of the dial, a little luminescence , and especially the weight contained 121gr despite the bracelet steel fine and comfortable with its two half links. It’s more comfortable than my 2000 Tudor hydronaute and more durable than my 1950’s Omega seamaster. And all this 3 times cheaper than the Grail Rolex 36mm. I love small watches on my wrist 7" 18 cm.

I think this is a serious step down from the previous Conquest in most aspects, which was a truly versatile watch. I understand differences of perspective on this, and don't state it as some scientific or universal opinion; I'm just very glad I got the previous model. I fail to comprehend the description of "ultra aggressive" (!) crown guards on the previous model, or - as Teddy implies here - that 300m water resistance "somewhat thwarted the mass appealing objectives." Mind you, I also note in previous videos of Teddy's this water resistance rating was considered a massive plus! And that suggests (among other things) that Teddy's views tend to conveniently align to what he can sell, in terms of active stock. I don't blame him; these videos, as most people realise, function as extended advertorials - but it's not pointless to indicate that perspectives tend to shift oddly in line with product line changes. I understand why he'd do that; it doesn't hurt to point out the inconsistencies sometimes. (I've noted it several times.) I still enjoy the channel enormously.

Now as I look at mid tier and above, I can never find the perfect size for me lol. Its always 38 or 41! That's ok though, I'll just have to try a 38, at least with Longines (since their lugs are SO long). Thank you for displaying the Silver dial. Didn't see it anywhere else on YT.
