What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Vario 1945 A-11S Solar Quartz

Owners widely praise the Vario 1945 A-11S Solar Quartz for its superb case finishing, legibility, and premium look, with its 40mm size proving comfortable for many wrists. Reviewers highlight its incredible value at $198, featuring a Miyota solar quartz movement and polished chamfers adding unexpected style. Some owners note the lume is poor and the 50-meter water resistance is limited, while others desire a big date complication not supported by the solar movement. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Vario 1945 A-11S Solar Quartz highly for its excellent finishing and value proposition.

Longines CONQUEST

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Longines CONQUEST for its high-quality finishing, versatile design, and exceptional value, with many highlighting its comfortable wearability and solid build. Accuracy figures are generally positive, with one owner reporting +1/+2 seconds per day. However, several owners note that the bracelet lacks micro-adjustment, which can affect fit, and some find the lume to be weak or inconsistently applied across variants. One owner also mentioned the crown rubbing against the wrist. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Longines CONQUEST highly for its blend of elegant design and robust build at an accessible price point.

From video reviewers

The perfectly balanced case size is a key strength of the Longines Conquest. A notable weakness is the somewhat lacking lume brightness. Reviewers disagree on the ideal case size, with one preferring 38mm and the other 39mm.
