Underrated Longines Diver’s Watch

Friends who like watches, how can they not own a diving watch? But for many friends, it is still very challenging to buy a Rolex Submariner or an Omega Seamaster, which discourages watchers. The Longines Concas also has wide recognition in the watch industry. Its elegant appearance and tough temperament make watch lovers excited; most importantly, Longines Concas has lowered the threshold for entry-level diving watches. , but its watchmaking capabilities should not be underestimated!



The Longines Concas diving watch is nicknamed the "Longines Submariner" by watch friends, which shows that its strength should not be underestimated. But what many people may not know is that Longines, which was born in the 19th century, in 1832, is now a large manufacturer with nearly 200 years of history, and its watchmaking capabilities should not be doubted.




Judging from the current market, Longines is also very well-known, and is recognized by all ordinary people. Even my father, who doesn’t play watches, bought a Longines watch for the first time.


For many friends who are just getting started, they think Longines has a gentle and elegant image, but if you look at the Concas series diving watches, they have a strong sports style, but they don’t feel vulgar, elegant and domineering!




It’s really embarrassing to buy a watch because you’re afraid of being seen by others, and also afraid that others won’t be able to see it. However, the Longines Concas diving watch can be seen from several meters away. The obvious "6, 9, 12" on the dial is very conspicuous.


Looking through our official website, the price of Longines Concas diving watch is basically over 10,000 yuan. At this price, it can be said that there is no competitor in the same level.



In fact, I think the best thing about Longines Concas is the movement it is equipped with. After all, the price is here. The L888 automatic movement is improved from the ETA movement. It uses Swiss-made anti-magnetic monocrystalline silicon hairspring to improve accuracy. It also has anti-magnetic properties, which can protect the movement from being interfered by external magnetic fields. Moreover, the L888 movement can also provide a power reserve of up to 64 hours (some versions are 72 hours). It has been certified by the Swiss Observatory to ensure long-term accuracy. With this configuration and this price, what kind of bicycle do you need? .


In addition, why is it said that Concas is cost-effective? Among brands with the same price or even higher prices, when they are still marketing aluminum rings, they have already used ceramic bezels (still colored), easily surpassing their competitors. I can't help it, it's just so good.



Although many high-end watchmaking brands use ceramic rings, which is not a rare material, the Concas diving watch, as a watch with a public price of less than 20,000 yuan, greatly reduces the price of mainstream ceramic brands. The entry barrier to the industry is indeed a good thing for us consumers.


In terms of color, Longines can be said to cast a wide net and catch more fish. Blue, black, green, there are so many colors to choose from, right? Last year the size was 41mm, this year’s new product has been expanded to 43mm, and it definitely has a strong presence when you get started.


In addition to the one-way bezel with diving function, in order to achieve 300 meters of waterproof performance, Concas diving watches all have screw-in crowns and screw-in bottom covers.


Let’s focus on its GMT function. Look at the double word circle on the outermost layer of the dial. Do you think of the classic “Coke circle” and “Pepsi circle”? The blue dial has a light blue upper half circle. , the lower half of the circle is light gray. Longines uses these two colors to distinguish day and night time.


Like the one launched last year, it is equipped with L844 movement, which can provide multi-time zone display function. The vibration frequency of this movement adopts a special 25200 times per hour. Slightly lowering the vibration frequency reduces power loss and can achieve 72 hours. Dynamic storage.


Of course, if you still can’t resist the temptation of Omega after buying a Longines Concas, you can consider buying a Seamaster. This is not surprising in watch circles.
