Longines Conquest VHP vs Seiko Baby GS Snowflake

zorroCH86

I own a Longines Conquest VHP (41mm) since last year. Its a nice watch, a bit bulky with only 50m WR, and I got a great deal on that. I have a good deal now on a Seiko Baby Snowflake... But I am not sure about getting it... VHP has a great quartz movement and looks great... I have never seen a snowflake and I am worried about the titan case getting tonns of scratches...

Ah... I will keep just one of the two. If I get the Snowflake... The VHP will be sold :( thats my wifes rule :D

I'd keep the VHP, If you're expecting GS quality at Seiko prices you'll be disappointed.

Thats one concern... Not GS quality, but I think neither Longines quality... The bracelet on the VHP is fantastic. Its more about the dial, the VHP is a bit boring

For me, boring leads to long term interest, "interesting" becomes much less interesting to me after the novelty wears off.

I think you're right about quality as well, the Longines is likely better finished that a somewhat entry level Seiko with a pretty "meh" movement.

Get it. It’s fantastic and my most worn piece.

The V.H.P. has been one of my dream watches since I handled one back in 2022. It's a supercomputer for the wrist; I think that says enough. It would be my pick for sure

I have to say that I like the sporty look of the VHP case better... But with 50m WR its not sporty at all :'-) @red.johns pic is also absolute stunning...

Well, it's been ages that I crave that Longines especially for its ultra precise movementI. I will eventually get one, but the Seiko Gs snowflake is just stunning!
