Longines or Christopher Ward
Price aside, which of the two GMTs is worth the purchase? I want a GMT since I don't foresee them calling me on the GMT master 2 😂 😭
I'm a fan of both, but not sure which is a better fit, I'm concerned 38 might fit like a 37.

That Longines is just a beautiful watch!
Not accounting for the HUGE Price difference is gonna skew this quite a lot in the Longines favor.
It's objectively a better watch.
Too many numbers on the Longine.

When I tried on the longines, I truly expected a BB58 quality of bracelet, it was nowhere near. By far super cheap feeling.
But I could throw it on a different strap. But good point, I just think the CW C65 looks exquisite but I can't try it on in person
I think that Zulu Time is one of the best looking GMTs out there right now. Perfect amount of gold accents with that green. St Patrick's Day coming up. I think its a sign.🤣
Longines all the way for me

I love the CW badder bracelet
In these types of poles, there is always a very important detail that’s missing: these are two different kinds of GMT. So for me, practicality plays a big role. I will say, though that the presence or absence of a rotating bezel changes the calculus.
If you think you would find yourself using your GMT as a tool frequently, like I do, then the Longines makes the most sense. If you are going more for looks and you’re not going to be using it often, then I think the Christopher Ward makes more sense.

Our window of support at my job recently changed so I'm now working or at least collaborating with people in 3 different time zones
Thank you for the valuable feedback, this was a really great point.

I have loved ones all over the place, so I use my bezel multiple times a day to check if I want to text x, y, or z. And ADHD makes my short term memory just crap lol. I’m looking into a few 3-time zone GMTs as options until I get my grail ones. Looking at Tsovet’s quartz kinetic ones, the 5KX GMTs, and Islander’s. I don’t travel extensively so it’s all caller GMTs for me
