What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph

The Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph is praised for its elegant, art deco-inspired multi-layered dial and comfortable leather strap. Owners note its 38mm diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 11.5mm thickness, along with a sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance. Criticisms include the use of different fonts for sub-dial and perimeter markers, and the absence of a traditional running second hand. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph for its distinctive dial design and comfortable wearability.

Longines CONQUEST

Owners widely praise the Longines CONQUEST for its versatile, aesthetically pleasing design, comfortable wearability, and excellent value, with many highlighting its high-quality finishing and smooth winding action. Reviewers and owners alike note the watch's well-wearing size and blend of vintage and modern design elements. Some owners report the polished surfaces can be prone to scratches, and multiple sources flag the bracelet's lack of micro-adjustment as a significant drawback impacting fit. Lume quality is also a recurring point of criticism, with one reviewer noting only the black dial version appears to have lumed hands. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Longines CONQUEST a highly versatile and well-built everyday sports watch offering significant value.

From video reviewers

The elegant gold dial is a notable aspect of the Longines CONQUEST. The quartz movement may be a drawback for collectors who prefer mechanical movements. Reviewers disagree on the standout feature, with one highlighting the gold dial and the other the Blue Sunburst dial.
