“The Citizen” AQ4091 VS The New Longines Spirit Pilot: Which Is The Best GADA Watch? +Watch Giveaway
When it comes to everyday GADA (go anywhere, do anything) watches, we have a whole bunch of options such as the Rolex Oyster Perpetual, Omega Aqua Terra, many Grand Seikos, and Tudors as well. However, Citizen with their Ecodrive movements are also in the conversation because of their everlasting solar quartz dependability. At the top of the Citizen heap is the watch I bought: “The Citizen” AQ4091-56E. Additionally, Longines is ranked high after releasing fantastic watches for years such as the Hydroconquest GMT and the Spirit Zulu Time. That said, there was always some problem or another whether that's a missing microadjust clasp or odd lug widths. This all changed with the all new Longines Spirit Pilot. These watches have surprised me because despite me being a fulll on dive watch lover, the The Citizen AQ4091 and the Longines Spirit Pilot have taken over my wrist even against the likes of my Omega Seamaster 300M (SMP), Tudor Black Bay 54, Seiko SPB453 62 MAS, and Seiko SPB383 MM200 GMT. This got me thinking: which one of these two watches would make for the best GADA (go anywhere do anything) everyday watch? So in this video I’m going to get into the details about their dims and how they are on the wrist and I’ll talk about their dials, case, bracelets, and movements and hopefully we’ll come to some sort of conclusion without me collapsing at the prospect of choosing between these two fantastic choices for a daily watch OH and I’ll be announcing a watch giveaway later on as well so stay tuned for that (Any communication in the comments from any other youtube account aside from my official youtube account @thewatchidiot IS SPAM.
