New ZF Longines Hydroconquest 2018 rep released

[Adytzu26]

Hi guys, I pulled the trigger on the ZF Longines a few weeks ago and I was very dissatisfied with it... it arrived with a defective bracelet and after a couple of days it stopped working.
Quite frankly, I was expecting a different quality from Z Factory. I mean, I know they excel in Tudor BB and IWC, but why would you put on the market such crap??
Now I am waiting for the new watch to arrive (I sent back the defective one).
If you'd ask me... I wouldn't recommend it...
P.s. the Lume is very poor also

Hi, did the new watch arrived in good condition ? Do you still have it ? If yes what's your thoughts on it now ?

What a pitty quality is not good enough. I own an original longines hc in the first generation and believe me, the quality is not that good too. Mido for example is far better (and a bit cheaper). On the longines the bracelet is rattling. Good reps (arf, v6f) are a lot better and this is a hard sign to longines.

I've found the gen of this watch very simple in comparison to high end VSF and other reps. The bezel felt very cheap and the bracelet wasn't something to write home about. So if the rep feels cheap - it's just like gen
