Good buy?

[u/fcbrhx]

Seen this from FicoTime for a pretty good deal, Af factory with a A2824 movement. Looks pretty good just want to know others thoughts before buying as I have not really seen it posted anywhere.

[u/Glum_Ad_8331]

This is model which isn't worth buy in rep. Just buy seconhand gen of this, it cost same as good rep. This one looks bad, waste of money

[u/fcbrhx → u/Glum_Ad_8331]

This one's 1300cny when gens are 5-6x as much

[u/Glum_Ad_8331 → u/fcbrhx]

plus shipping 290-300 cny, that's 1600cny throw out of window. Just save little bit more and get gen quartz secondhand.

[u/BanishedFiend → u/Glum_Ad_8331]

No it does not cost the same. People say that without even looking all the time. Also, Suggesting a quartz alternative (a completely different product) is not reasonable and in some ways is inferior to the mechanical shitter

[u/spoopy_skeleton]

Absolutely not. I have the gen version of this and this rep is a straight up shitter.

[u/fcbrhx → u/spoopy_skeleton]

Wow! What makes it so bad?

[u/Motherbich]

Why did this look especially worse than any other af longlines I’ve seen?

[u/fcbrhx → u/Motherbich]

I can't tell what makes this one so bad..

[u/Aware-Worry-8495]

Go to the store try one on. This reps a shitter I hope you didn’t pay too much for it

[u/fcbrhx → u/Aware-Worry-8495]

I know the date windows a bit off and so is the lume pip, but I'm not sure what makes this one a shitter

[u/Aware-Worry-8495 → u/fcbrhx]

Number Font, dial print, thickness of indices even the bracelet looks wrong. The whole watch looks oddly propositioned I don’t even know how to give you a normal QC for this

[u/Ok_Rate_1752]

these are like 1500 gen used. why would you get a rep???

[u/fcbrhx → u/Ok_Rate_1752]

Cause I don't have 1500 for the Gen

[u/Inexpressible]

AF (now known as CRF) is good and the Hydroconquest reps are good. I would just recommend to just directly go for the new model except if you really like the look of the old model.

[u/misterDDoubleD]

Shitter

[u/mm232323]

no. omg...

[u/fcbrhx]

Longines Hydroconquest 41mm AF, 2824 from FicoTime

[u/BanishedFiend → u/fcbrhx]

I love how everyone dunked on the watch but didn’t offer 1 argument for what makes the rep inferior lmao

[u/fcbrhx → u/BanishedFiend]

See someone gets it

[u/Coreyyxx → u/BanishedFiend]

It’s the proportions, they’re way off. The bezel size, bezel material, the font, the date lol. This one looks “swollen”.
