My grandfather wore a Longines on special occasions. I wear a Longines because every day I remember him is a special occasion. This is more than a brand, it's also heritage.

It's good to see Teddy interviewing these guys after bringing small time collectors like me into watch collecting and getting into higher end watches

Nobody factors in their build or height. I have a smaller wrist but small watches look strange on my 188cm athletic frame. 40mm-43mm is the sweet spot, but thickness, bracelet width and especially lug-to-lug length are almost more important measurements than case size.

The 42mm Zulu Time looks too big on my 6.5” wrist. Lugs are too long. My 44mm Seiko Turtle fits me better. 🤷‍♂️

Wow, so impressed with Longines collection. I love the on fly adjustment and the Spirit 37mm. Longines have definitely been hard at work with their improvements. Forget Rolex, these are far more innovative.

Excellent to hear from the people involved in designing these watches, brings home all the work that goes into each piece and provides so much insight. Thank you Teddy. 👍

Just bought the Zulu time in the green dial. My first luxury watch ever. Can't wait to wear such a respectable brand's watch on my wrist and enjoy this beautiful piece! ❤️

The 37mm addition is by far the most exciting. This might be the best affordable pilot's watch on the market. I would love to see the GMT offered in a smaller dimension, but you can't always get what you want.

Despite the Spirit 42mm and the Monta Skyquest GMT already in my collection, that Zulu Time is still a heck of a temptation. One of the most flawless GMT executions I've seen under $5k. Thanks for the great video!

Thanks Teddy. This was a great interview and showcase. Hearing the brand tell the story the way they intend it to be relayed, and spending time on the details with the philosophy behind the design cues, is a very nice touch. Again, thanks for putting the effort into this one.

Perfect conduction of the interview, Teddy. You asked all the right questions. You're definitely helping this hobby grow in a healthier and positive way. Regarding Longines, they're nailing it! I'll be adding a 37 spirit in my collection soon.

Man, I absolutely adore Longines. Teddy, on the button with this one! Fantastic job. Was excited to see the GMT release and moments later your video was out.

Great timing to get this out today- I was looking forward to the release and this is a wonderful extra to that. Good work, Teddy!

Between all their recent pieces, and this interview, and the amazing movements they’re doing, Longines is my favorite brand right now for sure

Love the Zulu Time in blue dial + blue strap. Looks gorgeous for a daily driver.

Can we all just shout out how awesome it is to see Teddy doing these collabs? This channel has come so far in the last few years, and I am so happy I found it. Kudos, another wonderful interview, Teddy! 🙌👏

I absolutely LOVE the new Zulu Time GMTs and can't wait for their release! The fact that these have the Longines history, a true GMT in house COSC certified movement, and are listed around the $3,000 mark, pretty much forces the consumer to consider them. Oh, not to mention they're gorgeous watches! Well done, Longines... well done!

Began my Longines relationship with a black dial 43mm Conquest. Loved it so much I just added the Spirit Chrono 40mm blue dial. Longines man forever.

Longines are on a roll. I love what they are doing and the new GMT is simply lovely. It has some Autavia GMT vibes.

My grandfather had a Longines pocket watch and I was so fascinated as a child 50+ years ago with this watch, so I personally know that this brand has a long history in watch making and as a new enthusiast in fine watches I truly love the new GMT collection.

Excellent interview! Love the additions to the line and the detailed descriptions of the design choices Longines has made. Definitely a contender for an upcoming purchase!

Happy to see Longines getting some love. My father in law gifted me a Flagship Heritage Automatic Chronograph after I proposed to his daughter 10 years ago. It's a beautiful watch that will always hold a special place in my heart, and has made me a lifetime fan of the brand.

Outstanding. I am so happy to see Longines regaining its place as a premier watch brand. Bravo!

Just put one on wrist today after looking at Breitling Super Ocean Heritage and the Zulu is a stunner. Holding up very well against watches almost 2-3X higher. Soo well balanced and executed. You will want to go see one for yourself. Like he said it has an elegance to it that is really something

Such a great watchmaker. Their products always seem to be positioned to make 98 percent of the collectors taken care of in terms of size and style very well represented.

These look awesome! Looking forward to seeing that GMT! Thanks for the intro to these new releases.

Ive been paying alot of attention to longines lately, im really liking what they're doing and how they're doing it 👍🏾.

Great interview and even better watches. I love the spirit as well as the green bezel Zulu time! Congrats on all your growth Teddy 👏🏻

Amazing piece for the price point. I was considering the TAG Autavia and GS GMT, but Longines have knocked it out of the park with this! Bravo

Excellent interview and video! All of the watches are absolutely beautiful but being a GMT fan, that GMT is stunning!

I've not considered Longine for awhile but that GMT is absolutely beautiful and the Spirit is quite striking as well. Excellent interview Teddy!

Great video, Teddy. Really enjoy these discussions directly with important people from the houses! That Spirit Zulu Time looks spectacular! I want one with a blue dial

Man longines has been killing it recently- stunning value for money!

Longines is such a fantastic and underrated manufacturer...excellent video as always!

Thank you Teddy and Giuseppe, a great video. The new colours of the Legend Diver are very welcome especially the burgundy for me anyway. The new Spirit watches have just leaped onto my radar as items to see at the AD at some point. The new smaller sizes are welcome as is the relocation of the date window to six as this adds balance and symmetry to the dial. It's also great to hear that it was a design decision to move the GMT hand on the Zulu Time to the second point on the hand stack. I think it works very well to keep the watch slim. The on the fly strap adjustment is also great to see. Thanks again both for sharing. Oh and Teddy I agree that the sector dial is a real go anywhere gem of a piece.

hats off to Tissot and Giuseppe for delivering the fantastic cleanest Zulu time. Tks Ted for a great episode

I loved this video! Teddy, you asked all the questions us enthusiasts would ask. I really loved hearing their thoughts, and also that they do look at feedback. These are really great releases, and thanks for including the lug-to-lug on the 37mm. I have a friend with a smaller wrist really interested in that one. The 40mm works fine on my wrist, and I'm very interested in the Titanium 40mm.

Love Longines, my HydroConquest has been my go too for the past few years. That Spirit 37mm is extremely tempting. Beautiful watch

Really enjoy these interviews with people in the industry. Thanks.

Wow those were some fantastic watches. It was obvious Teddy has a passion for watches and had some great questions. Well done.

I love how you are now doing the brand’s release reviews, it’s like they’ve acknowledged how important you are in the world of watches, specially at this price point, thank you teddy, for becoming that bridge, after having a seiko skx013 for years I finally started expanding into other watches sub 1000 dollars, most of them watches you have examined. Thank you for giving younger people like me (29) that maybe don’t have the money or the connection to brand like Rolex,but that love washes that inspiration.also I respect this brands the most because they are approaching us the consumer unlike Rolex that just drank their own coolaid and think they are to cool to be nice.

Love Longines! My everyday wear is a hydroconquest. It has been reliable and is beautiful.

Hi Teddy, i love your channel and follow its developement for years now. Great job you are doing here, keep going !!

Some absolutely beautiful timepieces! Great Q&A about the lineup.

Loved this video. Longines setting the pace for design, quality and value. 5 year warranty from the brand is such a great plus as well.

Really enjoyed the chat and great watches. I think they have got me with these. Off to the bank !! 👏

Great video, love the new products!

Great choice of guest, a real pleasure listening to him.

Teddy you are killing it with these brand colabs 👏👏

Teddy, you did a great job as an interviewer here. You asked smart questions and allowed M. Miccio to answer at length. Too many interviewers just talk talk talk, trying to make themselves the star of the show, rather than gathering information from the interviewee.

Zulu GMT just rushed the top of my watchlist. Stunning! Thanks for Interview and presentation to you sir as well as longines ofc.

Wow great job on these took a tempting watch, and improved on it, I think I will pick one up.

You are a good interviewer Teddy. I noticed that when you asked Mr. Miccio about the lug to lug lenght: in one hand you know that's a common concern amongst watch collectors, wich shows your appreciation for your fans, and on the other you asked him if Longines have discussed that topic, without being confrontational or unpolite, which shows your understanding and respect for the watchmaker's difficult task of trying to please the collectors. Thumbs up

Hi Teddy, the Zulu Time is for sure the "Black Bay Line Up" of Longines! It will be a real success. They can or will build an empire on this - smaller diameter i.eg. below 40 mm - more color variations, bronze like the Legend Diver - what a big hit. And the prices - really affordable. Why wait for years on a Starbucks - get it from Longines with GMT function instead. Plus quick change of straps and bracelet, so cool! Need to call the AD in the next hours. Greetings from Germany. Many thanks

Another great job teddy....this is the content watch collectors want

I love your videos Teddy! You made me want to get into luxury watch and I chose this Zulu Time GMT as my first ever luxury watch!!! Thank you for all your videos and keep up the great work sir! 🙏❤️

Great line of watches here!!! Loving the new Zulu Time GMT's. Blue for me!!

Love the Spirit GMT Zulu Time, definitely one to add to my list

Longines is really rocking it right now! So much so that I purchased the blue dial chronograph on bracelet last week. Love it, a very tall piece mind and the lug to to lug length is perhaps a put off for some. Yes my new piece does wear large, hence the calf leather strap is on it’s way to me. But the whole Spirit range from Longines is a home run!! Fantastic pieces, love the Zulu Time models! Watch out Tudor!

The Zulu is one I'm really looking forward to see, amazing that Longines just keep hitting the mark.

Absolutely love Longines. Fantastic brand, excellent products.

The new straps for the Diver are gorgeous! Makes me want one.

Great interview wonderful information.....

Great vid! Good discussion re design. Keep at it!

been considering of getting the spirit 37mm ever since watching this video, glad that i pulled the trigger today. just bought the 37mm champagne dial and rocking with it.

Great Video Teddy! That Zulu Time just said "hold my beer" to every other GMT out there. On my list !

Great job Longines! I'm definitely going to try on that Zulu Time GMT when it appears at my AD.

Great video! Longines is really doing great things to improve

love Longines! You can buy any price point you want with them and still get one hell of a watch!

Everyone one of these is superb 👌. Longines is killing it.

I truly enjoy how they've set up Hamilton, Tissot, then Longines as the perfect three stepping stones in ones mechanical watch journey, before you even need to think about a Oris, Omega, and Tudor...
