I am looking to get my first luxury watch due to a very nice bonus from work, either the Tudor Black Bay pro or the Longine Zulu time. Just can’t make up my mind. Both 😂?
Congrats on the bonus 🎉. I don’t think you can go wrong with either but I’d personally choose the Zulu time. The BB Pro looks amazing but imo is much too thick to wear comfortably during our winters 😅.
This is a really tough call. Really. Tough. The choices are incredibly similar but still very different with very different vibes. The Zulu time is just gorgeous!! And I’m surprised I’m saying this, but I’d go Tudor! For no other reason than a gut check/glance check. That Tudor dial, snowflake hands, bulk, bracelet, and rounded glass just speaks to me. If possible, I’d definitely try and go to an AD and try them both on. Side by side if I could. What a wonderful dilemma! Either choice will be so epic!! Congrats!!🍾 😁

Longines first, then Tudor!
Well first of all, congratulations man!
I personally would go with the #tudor Black Bay 😍
Longines first, then Tudor 😉
Congrats on the bonus I think either way you good to me.
Tudor bb pro, such a strong looking watch
Longines, less obvious, more personality, more versatile.
Longines, all day, every day.
Tudor!!
I would go the Tudor route
Zulu, obviously 😉
I’ve considered both, in my opinion the BB looks great but it’s too thick. I much prefer the design and wearability of the Longines (in 39mm)
Hey Paul,
Congrats on the bonus 🎉. I don’t think you can go wrong with either but I’d personally choose the Zulu time. The BB Pro looks amazing but imo is much too thick to wear comfortably during our winters 😅.
Zulu time has a much nicer dial.... Longine steel bracelets have a lot to be desired though
Tudor!!!
You said it 😎
how about mix of both

The Pro is a chunky boy. Be sure you try it on first.
I went BB58 so its tudor who gets my vote
Are these the only options ?
If no then u have grand seiko SBGM221.
Breitlimg colt.
If you can afford both then you got even better options
Cartier santos or santos dumont
Ming
Tag carrera that’s been killing it
Zenith defy or chronomaster )
Good luck and pls share the end result )
Not a GMT fan, but prefer the looks of the Longines.
I almost always like Tudors offerings more than Longines, and this scenario is no different. Tudor all the way.
First go try them both on and then decide 🙂
But I'd 100% choose Longines on looks and character.
Zulu Time then Black bay 😎
Tudor.....all the way..

Tudor on a strap! Surprise them
In my opinion the Tudor is slightly sportier and the Longines slightly dressier.
Tudor: I love the way the yellow GMT hand pops. The bezel in the same color/material as the case makes it more rugged and “tooly”.
Longines: The Ceramic Bezel in the same color as the dial feels classier or more refines. Also the hands are elegant and sleek!
These are of course my very personal and very superficial opinions.
However, you can’t go wrong with either! Good luck!
I would say longine zulu time personally
That’s an easy decision.. both!
