I will definitely go for the Longines.  Better brand heritage and also the better looking watch.

If not mistaken, RSP 7.4K USD.

From the above list, I'll go Longines too.

Tested it on me... dosent suit me..
my wife and my colleagues say i suit dress watches more...

USD7.4K? wow... cant afford it...

Actually, my analysis on the 3 watches above :

RW - Black = Something new and different to my collections.. (prefer looks no. 2)
RW - White = Something similar to my collections, but it looks stunning to me (prefer looks no. 1)
Longines = Branding and build quality, but looks somewhat similar to my collections too... (prefer looks no. 3)
