I tried on both the Black and the Blue and it was a hard decision and a matter of taste. The Black was nice but the Blue just popped and spoke to me. But everyone has a different taste. The Blue is a darker Royal Blue and in Low light almost looks Black, however in the Sun the dial shines and the Blue looks Gorgeous. Try them on both and then decide.

I think this was a grand slam by Longines. This is the impact I've been waiting from them. I know they have a really long horological history but never found their watches that appealing as they tend to, in the modern iterations anyway, be so big-- whether it is the case or the Arabic numbers, or hands. This one tones it back down with perfect sized Arabic numbers and a simplistic but elegant hands. The date window blends into the theme seamlessly and I always loved the 5 stars at the bottom. I hate green and gold as I think it's very old fashioned but man, the Zulu time makes that combo also irresistible. Perfect shades of green and gold! And 39mm is perfect and also being 1mm thinner than the Tudor GMT is HUGE! Watches have begun to look like towers on our wrists. What a release from Longines. Bravo!

Love it. The 39 is far better, proportionally. One thing that irked me about the 42 was that the date window was too high up. The 39 brings it more into alignment. Seriously considering this release now that the date window is better positioned. S&G variant is not my cup of tea. Almost wish they would go full gold as opposed to two tone.

I love it and bought the 42mm version, in anthracite and green. I also own a 1995 Conquest (quartz) with a perpetual calendar. I must add that a few years ago, the perpetual calendar stopped working. Despite being many years after the warranty period, Longines replaced the movement at no cost. I was perfectly willing to pay but, who would have expected that kind of customer service? Anyway, I am thrilled with my Zulu time.

I think this is a very classy release with the added advantage for me in that it's made of titanium which is hypo allergenic and wonderfully lightweight. I was in the watch trade for nearly 40 years (retired 2012) and we were main stockists for Longines. As an independent retailer and owner of my shop in the Strand, London, we were one of the biggest sellers of Longines watches in the UK. I was lucky enough to be taken on an all-paid-for trip (with other lucky retailers all over the UK) to Switzerland to visit the Longines factory over two days. It was a real eye-opener and we got to walk through the factory and see many of the working stages in progress. It's a terrific brand and I think it's probably a bit underrated. In my opinion it provides pretty much all the luxury features one could want at a very reasonable price.

I bought this watch three weeks ago in the green version with a bracelet. It fits perfectly on my 20 cm wrist and there is still room to increase it by one point on the bracelet clasp. At a temperature of 22-24 degrees Celsius - accuracy -2 seconds per day. For 48 hours late -3 seconds. There was also a surprising situation when after 3 days it had a delay - minus 5 seconds and lying on the table at night its work evened out to 0 seconds :) The watch was very well made. Please note that this is not included in advertising materials and professional videos on YT: the convex sapphire glass gives a lot of reflections on the surface. I highly recommend this watch.

I just purchased the Blue Version of this watch today and it is a gorgeous watch. The Boutique I was in is located in Heilbronn Germany and has been at the same Location since 1946. I bought a Seiko watch there back in the late 70's and the storefront hasn't changed but they inside has. They no longer sell Seiko Watches but only High End watches like Rolex and Omega, Tudor, Glasshuette Original, Tag Heuer, Nomos and Longines. I tried on a Tudor Black Bay GMT and while I liked it a lot as well, I chose the Longines not because of the Price but because it looked better on my wrist. The Blue Dial just speaks to me and along side of my Omega Seamaster 300 also in Blue it is difficult to decide which watch to wear each day. Thanks for your Stellar Reviews and the Honest Pros and Cons. The lume definitely isn't the best but I didn't buy the watch for the lume. Most of the time I will be looking at my watch during daylight hours and if I need to know the time at night I look at my Cell Phone. Overall this is a Great watch and it wears well on a small or a large wrist like mine. At 20 centimeters they actually had to add a link the the bracelet in order for me to wear it comfortably. They did charge me 30 Euro Extra for the Link but it was well worth it. Thanks again for your excellent reviews. I hope I make it up to your Boutique in Cleveland some day. I used to live in Indianapolis, Indiana but moved to a milder Climate in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. But I will make a point to visit your boutique since my next watch will be the Omega Speedmaster Moonphase in you guessed it a Blue Dial. I almost bought it at this Boutique in Heilbronn but with their 19% Value added Tax it costs a couple of Thousand Dollars more here than in the States. Have a wonderful Weekend and I truly enjoy your videos and hope to one day meet you in person.

tried on a few days ago. dimensions are simply perfect for my 18 cm wrist. i think i'll definitely pull the trigger on this, just waiting a few months to allow dealers stabilise on a street price. also, i haven't decided yet between the slate black or the sunray blue dial. i have only minor comments: a muted double color of the bezel would've been appreciated, as well as a 24/48 click bezel to allow retain some time measuring capacity. as always i find a pity not having a 24h marking on the rehaut (only GS seems to keep thinking about it), and yes, a quick adjustment would've been great. anyway, definitely the best gmt on the market considering quality/price.

If i was to sell half of my small collection, and upgrade it to a single, more valuable watch, this would probably be the one. Other option would be an Seiko SLA. This zulu time is one of the best, if not the best looking gmt watch ever made. I could even say it's one of the best looking watches in general. And i don't even have use for the gmt, but the watch is so well designed.👌🏻

I look at a lot of flieger and GMT watches and the Zulu time is really on its own in terms of its design language. The execution is perfect. I don't mind so much that it does not have the quick adjust as it is a pilot's watch and not a dive watch. Whatever it lacks in that aspect it makes up with it's quick end link release on the bracelet. If you really want quick adjust then you can also get the strap. I tried out the black dial during a local visit to my AD offered to me at a discount if purchased in cash or CC.

Absolutley has heritage and provenance. Love the '39 ( black-brown strap) and it shines in so many ways. It's tough not to wear it every day. Bought it with the skillful guidence by TB representative Will. We went back and forth with the with Black Bay but landed here. I would only differ with Teddy in his review, that visually it wears closer to a 38-39 not 40. That does not diminish the Zulu's significance at all. A very special piece and the pride of my modest collection

I own the 42 in slate and green with both the strap and bracelet. My 7 inch wrist can pull it off, especially with the strap which wears smaller lug to lug. I usually prefer my sports watches between 39-41, 42 if it wears true or smaller. I thought I would’ve like the 39mm better but it just seems off especially on the bracelet with the lug to lug looking disproportionately long. That said, this series fit and finish is top notch…and the lume is fine.

If they released an updated version of their 1925 Zulu Time watch (especially for it's 100th anniversary) that would be really neat.

Beautiful timepiece. The arabic numerals are sleek and clean and I wouldn't mind adding this to my collection.

So happy they have done this, the 42mm was just a fraction to big in the wrist, the BBPro was my initial choice obvs with the Rolex Monica and history giving it the edge but as you point out Longinnes is the Daddy with a heritage you just can’t argue with, I think it’s going to have to be the Black and steel bracelet for Christmas! Tops review 👊

This is a very well thought out design. I find this more interesting than Tudor’s gmt models.

Beautiful watch... Could you speak to the striking similarity to the Tag Heuer Autavia?

The spec of this watch is fantastic and it seems like a great value for money. I could probably go for the 39 or the 42; the 39 is close in dimensions to a 114060 and I wear one of those almost everyday, but I also have bigger watches that are plenty comfortable to me and fit my 7.5” wrist just fine. It’s a handsome watch for sure, but I have to say the looks are a bit…bland? Generic? I just can’t help but feel it needs something to make it pop just a little more. I’d love to see a dual-color bezel, for example. Not necessarily a Pepsi or Coke bezel, but some sort of demarcation between night and day. I know not all GMT watches do that and plenty have fixed bezels, but if there’s a rotating GMT bezel, I want to see two colors on it. Although, that “aged” lume model is tempting me. I used to hate that look, but I’ve warmed to it over the years when done right and they nailed this one. Like you, I also sort of ignore Longines when I know I shouldn’t. I need to go check out those Big Eye Avigation models again…

Love my 42mm despite its negatives. I would love to know the sales figures of the 39mm. Weird making watch smaller but still having long lugs. 21mm lug width is great though.

would love to see some more wrist shots of you wearing it, maybe as a shorts? I have the exact same wrist size as you, and am worried about those male end lnks (and getting the bracelet down to a 16cm size), typically I can't handle lug to lug of > 47mm with female end links.

Simple test to determine if the movement in the Longine is in-house or not: Do I have to send this watch to Longine for servicing? Or can my local horologist service it?

Great review. Agreed on the lack of on the fly adjustability. I feel like this is now table stakes for a watch at this price point
