I am by no means a watch expert, but through your videos as a novice I've understood so much to fall in love with them over the last year. Have yet to pull the trigger on a first, everyday type watch but the Conquest 2023 38mm is by far the biggest standout in my eyes. So happy they added this size. May need to spoil myself with this at some point. 👀

Longines is my favorite watch brand. Always has been.

I have written many times on the Longines official website saying CONQUEST is your carrier and accessible series, you should definitely make it in 38 mm. And they did. Congratulations.

Actually went to the Longines store last year and was gutted at the 41mm. Patience is virtue!

I am pretty sure I was one of the people commenting about the need for a 38mm variant. I tried the blue 41 on and while it fit my 7 inch wrist fine, I'd really prefer a bit smaller. It's good to see Longines finally came through. The champagne dial doesn't do much for me, but I like literally every other color available. This really is a good value in that dressy sport watch area. It's 1/3 the cost of the Aqua Terra, and certainly much more than 1/3 of that watch. The Aqua Terra is an excellent watch (my father has the 38mm variant), but the lack of micro adjust can be levied against that as well. Would it be nice if the lume was a bit better? Sure, but at least there is lume. This isn't the kind of watch where you're always depending on it after hours in the dark. Kudos to Longines for another release proving the brand is moving up in the watch world. Thanks for doing a video on this one, as I hadn't even heard about this release.

I had bought the 41mm version of this with the green dial before the 38mm came out. The size definitely was the only reservation I had about it, but it was still within an acceptable proportion to my 6.5 wrist and so I went for it. Turns out I quite liked the fullness of it and still to this day marvel at how amazing of a watch it is. All this being said, I'd get the 38mm 😂

Not sure what website you are looking at but it's been on the official one for at least a week.

Should have kept brown dial

I think this is a serious step down from the previous Conquest in most aspects, which was a truly versatile watch. I understand differences of perspective on this, and don't state it as some scientific or universal opinion; I'm just very glad I got the previous model. I fail to comprehend the description of "ultra aggressive" (!) crown guards on the previous model, or - as Teddy implies here - that 300m water resistance "somewhat thwarted the mass appealing objectives." Mind you, I also note in previous videos of Teddy's this water resistance rating was considered a massive plus! And that suggests (among other things) that Teddy's views tend to conveniently align to what he can sell, in terms of active stock. I don't blame him; these videos, as most people realise, function as extended advertorials - but it's not pointless to indicate that perspectives tend to shift oddly in line with product line changes. I understand why he'd do that; it doesn't hurt to point out the inconsistencies sometimes. (I've noted it several times.) I still enjoy the channel enormously.

Spot on Teddy - I was so close to buying this one but, being an Omega fanatic, I went with the saffron Aqua Terra...that being said, dollar for dollar this might be one of the best options in the under $4000 price point. Nice job Teddy as always!!

fantastic job with this color palette. the typefaces choices are on point and well balanced.

Would love to see a comparison of this vs the spirit 37!

Very beautiful especially green n sampagne dial 👍👍👍👍

It’s a brilliant beautiful watch. Longines quickly becoming my favorite watch company.

Thanks for the vids finally order from the website for my second watch 👍🏽

Love nkuwan the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the watch. I don't think any other KZreadr can show off watches in as much detail as you.

Beautiful watch and it indeed ticks all boxes. Finally watches are available in normal sizes. It's also nice to have a selection of various colours. My favourite is the blue and the Champagne but I like all these colours...Actually the green looks also very nice.

Reminds me of VC's overseas model. Lovely watch!

Finally. DJ for the masses.

I love my 41mm with a 8.5" wrist but appreciate the proportions on the 38mm. Only thing I was disappointed with is the fitment of the pins in the bracelet. The one I received I had to add links to and you had to mix and match pins/links to find a combination where they all fit tightly.

I'm happy to rock the green 41mm. I do love 38mm size watches, but this watch act great in both sizes.

Torn between the green and black dials as an every day watch. They’re both so clean!

Longines is really coming out with releases with arguably the best value proposition for mechanical watches: the Legend Diver, Conquest, HydroConquest, Spirit, and so forth. Now this new Conquest at 38mm with a display case back, and all the refinements - very tempting. Just waiting to see if the HydroConquest GMT will come out at 38-39...

Longines so consistent with reaching their customers wishes. Now i need a redesign of the Spirit line up 😎

I do own the old Longines conquest and I love it however that new champagne dial looks amazing. Might just be my next watch.

Love this!

Ask and you shall receive... Green is the standout in my opinion. I do wish it had a normal clasp with on the fly adjustment though. Overall, these are fantastic watches.

Great video Teddy! Because of your videos I started to fall in love with watches, 4 years ago. I want to buy my first luxury watch and I'm between this watch, the Conquest 38 and the Spirit 37. Which one will be the best choice?

Very nice release!

The 37mm spirit also launched last year i think. My personal favorite and I wish it got a callout!

i have had the 41mm in white since the beginning of the year and i think it is simply beautiful. 😍 i have a diameter of 19.5

I had my eye on this for some time now. But I already have four Longines. Do I need yet another? Methinks yes!😁

These are awesome. I'd looooove to see a VHP version of this new design!

Love your videos! Please make a review for Longines the master collection Master 40mm Silver Dial Blue Roman Numerals Watch. Thank you!

I love this direction! I hope they bring some of their two-tone Hydroconquest designs down to the 39mm version

Been waiting on this, I am buying this. My wife better leave me alone 😁

It is great value when one considers the long term history of the brand. The lack of an on the fly adjustment on the bracelet (as executed so brilliantly with the IWC PILOT XX but at twice the price) might be a deal breaker for me....but I will certainly be visiting my local dealer to see and feel the watch on my wrist - that's the moment.

Teddy says one problem, my mind goes immediately to the fact that they all don’t have matching date wheels, then teddy goes into size. Lol

20mm lug width. Microadjustability. This would be virtually perfect. As it is, Excellent option. What a brand. Good for them.

Hi Ted. Amazing videos. Many thanks. I'm visiting LA and New York next month. Can you suggest me some shops for the watches you mentioned such as the Casios, Seiko, Glycine, Zenith, Laco Wempe etc. Thanks in advance.

This was needed, at 38mm I will likely buy, great size!

Unfortunate for the 19mm lug width but it’s a stellar looking piece and definitely looks better than the 41mm model.

The small size train keeps rolling and is picking up steam! I got on board a year or two ago. I have two Longines dress watches with aviation watch elements incorporated into them that I love. Both are 38mm and are starting to seem big! I kinda wish I could shave 1mm off of one of them and 2mm off the other. Oh well. I love your videos Teddy!

i’m looking to buy a hydro conquest automatic soon thoughts?

I'd buy this, the blue one.

Love this release, I would get the green dial. My only gripe is the lug width, why 19mm? I like to swap straps frequently and all of my other watches (all 38 or 39 mm), have 20mm lug width so I have probably 30 straps in that size, and zero 19mm.

Fantastic Watch!

I like the new background 👍🏽

looks like an amazing everyday.

Love the green

A very nice offering at a good size. My only issue is the butterfly clasp. Microadjustment is so important/useful, and to have to rely on removing half links is just too inconvenient. 19 mm lug width is not ideal, but sometimes the design warrants it. So, not that bothered by that.
