Longine is a good brand. Don't know about that watch. I assume from the price it is quartz.

Longines has a rich history and has made some of the better watches ever made.
Now days they are part of the Swatch Group.... same folks who make Omega, Tissot, Blancpain, and a few others. naturally, one pic can't tell much about this particular watch... It looks like the Longines DolceVita, a 1,000 plus dollar watch. If it is used, it may be a fair price. If it is supposed to be new, it is likely a knock-off.

Japanese people are known for their honesty. So generally i dont expect sellers knowingly sell fakes.
I guess something about the watch appealed to you. Gift for somebody? Or for you? So you will now replace your Omega :) Seriously though, make a quick check on chrono24. If the watch you are eyeing is in good condition, then it appears it is selling way below its market price. |
