I would agree on the similarity. Although that tends to be the norm among watch brands, including many of the top houses. But given Longines' long history of watchmaking and its extensive catalog, Naoya Hida may be not be entirely without sin.

In fact I just read a Hodinkee article on this watch that makes reference to a vintage Longines pocket watch with a similarly engraved dial. So perhaps in this case the old saying is true that "There's nothing new under the sun."

The steel model looks good here. Although I feel the two precious metals will likely look even nicer because they appear to have better contrast. The lugs looks abit on the long side from the pics. How does it wears on the wrist?

I know from my pieces that they have long lugs. Typical Longines. Easy to swap straps.
Same here.
