I bought my Hydroconquest almost 2 years ago in the 41mm Sunray Black Dial, and Bezel variant. I wear mine daily for work and going out. I work as a Diesel Mechanic and I have yet to scratch the Bezel or Crystal. I'm amazed at how this watch has held up to daily abuse in dirt, grease, and oil. Not to mention it keeps time very accurately. No issues so far, Automatic is the way to go 100% for a daily driver. I love my Logines and will be getting the black rubber strap for it soon, along with the Sunray Grey variant with both steel and grey rubber bracelet.

[@Lintukori]

Nice video as always. With electricity price and mortgage rates rising in Finland I have to postpone my chase for Cal 400 Aquis for bit longer. Still wearing my Formex Essence 39 and watching some Teddy videos keeps my "watch hobby" alive. Keep 'em coming!

[@Studat]

Went the Hydroconquest 2 weeks ago and no regrets. That blue dial got me over the line. Nice review as always...

[@dejandjurdjevic1001]

Great comparison and beautiful watches both. Nicely done as always Teddy!

[@ralphferrara5152]

I love my hydro conquest no regrets. I have it over 8years and it never let me down. Great watch for the money. I also own other Longine watches . They are vintage and gold. Very happy with all of them.

[@peasantstimekeeper]

Love my Hydro, no regrets! Great work, Teddy! The Hydro was the 1st watch i bought based off Teddys videos. I started my journey almost 3 years ago. My collection stands at 8 with 1 additional being on a waiting list. Ive bought the Hydro, FC Classic WorldTimer Limited Edition (702/718), and im on the waiting list for the AnOrdain Fume 1. All because of Teddys videos and education he provides!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thank you, Randell! I appreciate your support and for offering an owner's perspective. That is always helpful to see for people on the fence. Also, you'll love the AnOrdain. I have the plum model 1.

[@peasantstimekeeper]

@@TeddyBaldassarre i received an email from AnOrdain about 2 weeks ago. Informing me that they were seemingly cutting off the waiting list and if you were receiving this email than you spot was saved and some time over the next handful of months ill get a follow-up email for a deposit on my watch. If i interpreted the email correctly, i wont be able to pick my specific watch until much closer to its build time and my selection will be based on available models/colors they offer at that time. So im really hopeful for a model 1. But i have no doubt ill be thrilled regardless what variation i ultimately end up with. Probably not until 2024, maybe even as late as 2026, according to the email.

[@TheTrueHasenfeffer]

@@TeddyBaldassarre oh, I love those dials. Of course, there's a waiting list.

Hey Teddy, I have been waiting for this comparative review, glad you've done it!!!! Great well thought out response too!!!

[@curtbrown7718]

Two very good brands and pieces. Thank you for this informative comparison. Though I am a Longines fan, Oris holds my attention, as well, on many of their offerings.

[@rale94]

Yeees, I was waiting for this from you! :)

[@wayneturner1336]

Own them both, first gen hydroconquest with a white dial and a stainless steel bezel without insert of any kind and an Aquis with no Aquis marking the dial and leaf/sword style hands. Both are really fantastically comfortable however neither are on bracelet anymore, I can’t imagine wearing these as a dress watch and they’re super comfortable on a strap. Great review, nice subscriber numbers, always a great show.

[@carlosbecerril9855]

I just got the Hydroconquest Birmingham games edition, the colors of that particular edition give it the character that some of those Oris options have. I really like it and have been receiving nice compliments on it, super watch!

[@pimpampottekes]

Thanks Teddy for the comparing video. A week ago I had this problem of choosing witch one I want the buy of those too brands , I've chosen the Oris Aquis and im really happy with my decision if im looking to you video now ;)

[@Nick-os6ex]

Oris is just a cool brand. Love their charitable affiliations. I’d say Oris has a stronger diver, but I’d go Longines for their aviation watches. The big eye chrono with the blue dial is on my list

[@roochmartinez102]

Yup,This!! Longines divers can’t come close to the Aquis! Longines does a better pilot with the new Spirit line. It’s fantastic.

[@cryptoteslafan]

I was just comparing the watches (blue dials, however, same size) last night with my girlfriend and I was still unsure even after my girlfriend told me that she leaned slightly towards the Oris. However, now that Teddy has telepathically read my mind and released the video I wanted...I needed*, I now know that my girlfriend was right (always, of course), the Oris is the right decision for me. Just 13 more months of saving up and resisting the urge to purchase other watches. Great video as always, Teddy!

[@tvo6453]

I’ve owned both watches, which I bought each for slightly over $1000. Definitely enjoyed the Hydroconquest more. I wore both on their rubber strap…since I disliked both their bracelets. The Hydroconquest kept perfect timing +1 or 0/daily rate, while the Aquis ran -5 to -10 secs/daily. I would buy the Hydroconquest again in a heartbeat, since I’ve owned three Longines and had no issues with any of them. The slow movement on the Aquis drove me a bit crazy.

[@MyMarsham]

I managed to get the Oris cherry dial (Sellita) a couple months ago. Out of the box it ran +20 a day, with 0.5 beat error. Luckily I have a Weishi and was able to dial the BE out and get it to +1 a day dial up. I’d always imagined a $3,000 AUD Swiss watch would come from the factory with much tighter tolerances, but fortunately, I was able to correct.

[@P47RICKOG]

@@MyMarsham I own a HydroConquest in green and also just bought an Aquis New York harbor limited edition. I really was hoping the Aquis (since it's not even two months old) would come with the new in-house movement, but the Sellita didn't dissapoint so far (with a noticeable +3 secs at MAX.). The bezel I prefer on the Aquis cuz it feels more reactive and I also like the satin steel with the green mother of pearl dial. The rubber strap feels a bit more well made on the Longines but I prefer the Oris' bracelet. The clasp' is pretty much the same on both pieces but when It comes to the crown I feel like the HydroConquest takes the cake cuz when u tighten the crown on the oris, you really just give yourself a hard time when loosening it up straight away. I would definitely say they are both great timepieces and I love both of them equally.

[@andymoss]

The exact two I considered! I went with the Longines USA version. That was four years ago and don’t regret it one bit.

[@GeeMood]

Great vid Teddy and great comparison. When it came down to it, I went with the Mido Ocean Star GMT. Cheaper than both the Aquis & Hydro at retail and got a true gmt powermatic 80 movement. Only downside of the Ocean Star GMT is the lume. It dies so quickly on the hands, which is where it's needed most.

[@JAY-JAY74]

TEDDY! One of the only people who will cover Oris watches.

[@rodneymilton6314]

Grabbed both! Aquis Upcycle to satisfy eclectic vibe and the Hydroconquest for everyday wear! Excellent comps as always, Teddy!! 👌🏽

[@delagarzapaola]

I have them both and I really love them both! So different and equally gorgeous

[@dalerichardson8842]

Managed to get my Aquis on a bracelet for under £1000 a couple of years ago, I love it and I do take scuba diving, great video Teddy, I think if I didn't have one already, I'd go for the Aquis and look at the the Longine conquest in the future as it looks better than the Hydro.

[@simsalb]

Love my 39mm Oris Aquis Clean Ocean, the precursor to the upcycle, for it's banging dial quality of the bracelet and uniqueness. Definitely recommend Oris Aquis to others. Thanks for the helpful video Teddy.

[@richardxstroker]

I have fallen in love with the color coordination on the Aquis, and I think it so hard to beat. I’m eyeing a watches of Switzerland model, as I’ve looked at tons of watches, and just keep coming back to it.

[@zubinbarot497]

i own oris aquis green, and believe me its a tank. And it so suitable for every occasion although its a sport watch. And main advantage is that it is independent watch maker which makes it more prestigious. I also opted for hydroconquest when i was going to buy but that seems to me a little same design for many watches while oris aesthetics were something different. The built quality of oris is more durable and robust then longines hq. So for me oris is winner. Happy wearing your watch. amazing review teddy, lov your all video.

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thank you for sharing your ownership story, it adds tremendously to the video. Enjoy your Aquis!

[@huckinator]

I have both the hydroconquest ceramic in gray and the oris aquis 400 caliber in black. My hydroconquest keeps better time than my aquis. The aquis wears better though. Doesn’t feel like it’s 41.5 mm at all. The hydroconquest does feel maybe 42mm with the crown guards. The oris aquis has a better crown, lume, and clasp than the hydroconquest. It has a better power reserve with 5 days versus 72 hours of the hydroconquest. I think the hydroconquest is more legible especially on bright environments where the aquis is a little on the reflective side. Both bezels on my watches are fantastic and no issues with either. The hydroconquest is a bit thinner and sits closer to my wrist. Finally, I paid nearly double for my aquis then I did my hydroconquest. While I love both and they’re “keepers” for me, I think I slightly prefer the hydroconquest just due to the case shape. I’m a larger guy and my wrists are 7 inches but my forearms are very large and I think they both look perfectly fine on my wrist. Hopefully this helps someone from an owner perspective

[@metro2171]

Awesome video Teddy

[@ryangochuico]

Love comparison style videos specially when i only have budget for one of two watches. Speaking of, would love a suggestion which to pick between tag heuer aquaracer professional 300 or Oris aquis caliber 400 date. Thanks for always making quality videos. 😊

[@jonathanmc1409]

I own 2 hydroconquest watches(blk and blue dials both 39 mm and auto with aluminium bezel inserts, love them both and find they both keep very good time usually running +1 to +2 seconds a day which is really good considering the price. Weakest point is definitely the bracelet but still quite acceptable.

[@Hnair1982]

I love what Oris has been doing off late. I personally own a big crown propilot x. Beautiful price of engineering and the 10 day power reserve is awesome. Great content as usual Teddy

[@hultii]

Just bought a Hydroconquest, absolutely love it, I tried them both but fell in love with the Longines.

[@MrCoachab]

I love my Hydroconquest, better movement, better bang for the buck, I do like Oris and I agree the bracelet is better, but I love switching bands/bracelets and I love the Longines on the rubber strap as well as other leather bands…. With Oris you have to pretty much stay in house when switching bands because of the design

[@anthonystevens8683]

A very good comparison of two great well matched Swiss watches Teddy. If I were to add another category it would be the different strap options that includes 3rd party availability and that for me would go to the HydroConquest that would make the score even. As for my choice? I have an Aquis and not the HydroConquest (yet) so I would agree with the outcome on personal preference. Why did I get the Aquis? Well the bracelet is incredibly comfortable and it just fits my wrist so I've no immediate desire to swap it out after over a year of ownership. Another is that the date is at the six position and just balances the symmetry. Finally I love how Oris finishes the dials, the sunburst models look fantastic (blue, green, cherry etc) and the upcycle is just something else that I also really like but as they are all unique it's best to see it in the flesh. This takes nothing away from the HydroConquest though as it is a great range from Longines. As a comparison between these two for me I would call it a draw.

[@MooooonRiverWiderthanTimMoon]

Teddy! Why am I always so ready to pull the trigger on so many beautiful watches! I'm trying to wait for the perfect expensive watch wildly out of my price range...my first "expensive" time piece was the Ball Trainmaster, moonphase...and I love it! Love micro-brands, with a few on order from Underd0g and Boldr. Really a rhetorical question...I know I need to be patient. I obsessed for a few weeks before I broke down for the trainmaster, love your content

[@bmwalek]

Oris all day long! I own a handful of them and you just cannot go wrong with them! Such a versatile piece

[@leonardo-paez]

Excellent comparison!! i'd love to see the Aquis vs Rado Cpt Cook

[@70DMac]

I have them both. Very comparable yet very different. Just picked up the green dial variant and it's outstanding. Nothing else quite like it. The green stands alone from all other green dials and the numerals and hand set are unique. Bracelet on the Oris kills the Longines but the Longines has a better movement. They will live happily side by side in my collection.

[@dshindo1837]

I just bought one black on black . Luv it .

[@plumber4578]

[@benjaminborresen7481]

[@davidhori4899]

Excellent comparison! I love my Conquest (non-Hydro), but for the money, I’d go with the Oris if faced with this choice.

[@DBravo29er]

My wife has been rocking an Oris Aquis Diamond Date 36mm as a daily/only watch since December of 2018. Holds steady at +1.6spd and finish has held up as well as my 2018 Omega Seamaster. I'm really happy with it, TBH. But that HydroConquest is def a great watch as well. Wife considered an HC but didn't like the implementation of the Arabic Numerals.

[@theaussiewhinger]

That's a really cool looking Longines.

[@jeetdeshmukh]

Video was relevant and lit 🔥. Both are damn looking watches at a good price

[@fhaquuu]

I got both, sold a Rolex and omega and got these to keep my collection more reasonably priced.

[@olivierorban787]

One vs other, not to have decided, I have both of them, and I love them

[@Nulrom]

I have the Aquis in green and EVERYONE is asking to see it. This doesn't happen with the Longines, the aesthetic is a little bit more "bad submariner copy". The Oris is becoming a new classic. Also, as someone also mentioned, it's a tank. I wear it everyday and it's SO comfortable for a 300m watch. It's really compact. One of the best deals I made.

[@solanogu]

I would say a nice third option would be the Mido Ocean Star Chronometer, a little bit on the large side 43.5mm. COSC, ceramic bezel and MSRP of $1700.

[@yunlee7889]

I have Hydro grey dial as video, but with navy rubber strap replaced. very happy coIor match-up, perfect daily watch

Your first “Real Watch” what does that statement mean?

I liked the comparison, as well as the chart showing which wins in different categories. I'd love to see a ~$1K mid-size (40-42mm) diver show down. Say Doxa Sub 200, Seiko SPB143, Mido Ocean Star Tribute (or 200), and the Hamilton Khaki Navy Scuba Auto. Maybe the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro 300 or Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 53 Compression too. This might have to be split up into two, with the winner from the first going in the mix for the next comparison.

[@barrelbarrel1803]

The bracelet on the Oris is so nice. I'm still looking to move into the "luxury" watch level, so I've been shopping around. I held both the Hydroconquest and the Aquis alongside a few other entry-level luxury watches, and the Oris still haunts my dreams. I don't love how round the faces on the Oris are, so I didn't really love the look, but the bracelet really is good at the price point.

The huge face numbers on the Longines just kill it for me. Based on this I would go the Aquis.

[@derkritiker7598]

I just don't like the dial of the Longines. The numerals are way too big for my taste. The hour markers are too small and look misplaced imo.

Agree, also think the markers are too close to the rehaut imo. I think that’s more of what bothers me on the indexes

[@edmundluce3082]

I'm not a fan of the Longines dial either. The numerals are too big, and I think it's weird to have both the huge numeral and round marker at 9. To me, it appears both clunky and busy, but I'm sure many feel otherwise.

[@allanandrews7247]

I have both of these watches. I like them both equally but the HC is let down by the cheap poor clasp. I have (and have had) numerous watches with bracelets but the quality and execution of the clasp on the HC is up there with the worst particularly for a watch that retails got £1500. Longines would elevate the HC considerably with a redesign that could be retrofitted onto existing models. Are there any aftermarket clasps that would fit the bracelet?
