💰👑 Value MVP - Round of 16 B
Here's one for those among us who love a watch that delivers outstanding value for money- who doesn't? This is a tournament in which we vote to determine the watch that WatchCrunch deems to be the ultimate value proposition! Value, of course, is very subjective, but I've selected 16 watches that are commonly touted as outliers in terms of value. All 16 watches provide an excellent product for the price and are often comparable to much more expensive pieces. The price ranges vary, so this isn't about the cheapest watch, but the one that presents the most bang for your buck. The 16 options are: 1 Seiko 5 GMT SSK Series 2 Casio G Shock DW5600 3 Citizen Tsuyosa 4 Seagull Chronograph 1963 5 Longines Spirit Zulu Time 6 Zelos Blacktip MOP 7 Timex Marlin Chronograph 8 Lorier Neptune IV 9 Farer Erebus Midnight 10 Baltic Hermetique 11 Orient Bambino II 12 Christopber Ward The Twelve 13 Mido Ocean Star GMT 14 Brew Metric 15 Tissot PRX Powermatic 16 Hamilton Khaki Field Murph The tournament will follow a double-elimimation format in which 2 watches will go head-to-head in each round. This is the second duel in the Round of 16. Vote away!
I'm Tom. I'm an attorney based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Fairly new to this hobby, but I have a developing love for tool watches. I appreciate brands like Zodiac, Sinn, Hamilton, Serica and Lorie...
I love the Longines Spirit Zulu, but the Zelos Blacktip for me is much better value for money. I'm curious why the poll is overwhelmingly in favor of Longines.

I feel exactly the same.. I mean for $650, you get a Titanium surface hardened case and bracelet, a 4hz Miyota 9015, 200m WR, domed sapphire with AR, and a spectacular dial (I think one of the very best at this price point!)

The only advantages that I can think of are brand heritage and the GMT movement. I don't care much about brands and the GMT increases the cost.

I believe the Longines has a Swiss certified chronometer movement as well... that counts for something I guess. Longines is certainly good value too.

It’s like 3x-4x more expensive, idk of this is a fair comparison
