Which one you prefer?
« on: September 25, 2015, 09:08:56 PM »
Hi,

I need some advice. Both use same caliber with different design but option 2 got 5Bar water resistance and option 1 only got 3Bar water resistance. Both with same size 42mm. 

Option 1 - Longines Master Collection Moonphase
Retail price :
RM13250 (Malaysia)
US$3550 (US)


Option 2 - Longines Conquest Classic Moonphase
Retail price :
RM11980 (Malaysia)
US$3900 (US)


1) Why option 2 is cheaper than option 1 in Malaysia? Any idea? Is it Conquest classic is not so popular so lower the price to attract sales?
2) Which one you like?

Hi, I think both is almost the same.

1. Dial is different with number
2. Bracelet different

Anyway I will choose the conquest, Dial without number (simple a bit).

Master
- is positioned above Conquest, thus the price difference
- classic look

Conquest
- sportier look

Among the 2, I will choose the Conquest.

But the retail price for Conquest classic is higher than Master collection at USA. Market different?

I would prefer the Master.

- I like the white background more than the black. it's cleaner and easier to read plus the black needles is more stand out.
- I also like the numerals instead of the dial without number.

i prefer the white one, mainly because i'm a sucker for white dials and arabic hours...if it comes with blued hands, then it's a no-brainer for me  :D

however, the white one doesn't have lume on it's hands or hour markers...but then again if you need to read the time in the dark, there's always your trusty handphone

Don't you think watches is men's jewellery? Watches is for decoration. :)

If purely on design...Conquest...a classic but modern looking watch that is less boring.

The Master Collection , IMO the moonphase function more suit to the classic/heritage watches.

I like watches with Arabic numerals as it looks more classic.
But in this comparison, Conquest looks sharper and more eye catching than Master, as its black dial makes those hands and sub-dials really stand out.

The white one. I like the black on white, plus you can see the moonphase clearer. :P
