I really like Longines for a number of reasons, personal and because of quality. THe tough part is that the one I have had my eye on is close to a Panerai Marina, another favorite.Originally Posted by johnnyhooks
It is extreme. While your statement regarding Longines are at their best, etc. is merely an opinion, I have to agree that their simple designs are very striking. I happen to like a plethora of hands as I think if you can get more complication-bang for buck, why not go for it. I'm also a huge chrono guy which is in line with my attraction towards the busier dials.Originally Posted by johnnyhooks
I don't mind more than 2 or 3 hands on a watch face when done elegantly, but this looks like a pressure dial at the Fukijima nuclear reactor..... it's all over the shop.
This watch certainly delivers complication bang for buck, but unfortunately the aesthetics suffer as a result. They should have focused on creating a good looking watch that's easy to read, rather than cramming in as many complications and subdials as possible, with little thought it seems.
Of course that's just my opinion, but I'm 100% right.
