Sector dials: Longines vs Omega CK859. Which one do you prefer?
By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 19th, 2022-13:43
After getting the Longines sector dial yesterday, Nico suggested to see both the Longines and the CK859 side by side. When I first got the CK859 earlier this year, I thought these two reference were too similar to get them both. However I could not get th...
I like the omega
By: TeutonicCarFan : November 19th, 2022-14:10
I like the vintage omega logo and recessed sub seconds and the shape of the hands. Everytime one gets posted I start making justification in my head 🤣 Longines is cool in its own but prefer the omega in this duo. Longines with milanese bracelet is slick. ...
I prefer the Omega

More expensive, more technology and high finishing.
Omega !

Close call…

Omega for the win.. 1. Prefer the crown. 2. Prefer the lugs. 3. Prefer the hands. For me the Longines is too “mass” but still very nice.
Omega over Longines because
By: jiggerly-cool : November 19th, 2022-16:03
There is no half-eaten number showing There is a proper “3” and not a buttocks

😱 beautiful!

yes but not mine 😆 unfortunately
By: Andy_Mac : November 19th, 2022-17:02
I’ll say it’s a draw between the Omega and the Longines dial wise. It was the Longines that reminded me of the Habring/Massena colab. Both very nice 👏 HAGWE 👊🍻
Cool! HAGWE!

No contest here.
By: Mr.Gatsby : November 19th, 2022-16:49
The Omega hands down. Best Gatsby
CK for me
By: Jp75 : November 19th, 2022-17:27
Thanks for putting together the side-by-side comparison 🙏 Prefer the omega: Dial has no eaten numeral, shorter lugs and better movement. Love the bracelet of the Longines and prefer its second hands too. Though choice but CK wins for me, Cheers, Jerome ...
Both look good.
By: George Gently : November 19th, 2022-17:31
I’d take the Omega if I had to choose. Just love that Ag dial.
I'll take the Omega
By: Gregineugene : November 19th, 2022-17:34
I have to agree with jiggerly-cool and jp75 about the dial. The toppled over 3 doesn't bother me so much but the half-eaten 6...I just don't get it. its sort of like when they were designing the dial they didn't realize that they were going with 6 o'clock...
It's a close call.

Omega takes the win of best case, but Longines dial is a winner. Much cleaner than the almost cluttered dial of the Omega. By a very slight margin the Longines takes the win.
I prefer
By: GLau : November 19th, 2022-17:54
Longings because the dial is cleaner.
Ok sir! 14-10!
By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 19th, 2022-19:50
These two should never be parted!
By: KCLQMULKU : November 19th, 2022-18:40
Just a wonderful pair!!! Your newly acquired Longines is very fine indeed, but I am biased by the design of the CK as a previous owner of the 5296 sector (which was the reason why I had to get it based on the first photo I ever saw - which happened to be ...
Congrats on two amazing sector dials, Yacomino.
By: Lankysudanese : November 19th, 2022-18:52
The depth and texture of that silver dial, and those voluptuous blue hands, on the CK are to-die-for. I strongly considered the Longines for a very long time, but the lack of alternating polished/brushed surfaces on the case left me feeling cold. I can’t ...
The race is taken hights
By: Weems@8 : November 19th, 2022-20:06
Do not count this one. If i open my wallet, i want to spend wats in to the CK. Albeit Longines put on the strap i want to see on the CK how it looks…. I like when Longines put on a flying hourglass on a dial, but i guess it do not fit well on a heritage m...
CK for me

this Omega dial is simply too busy with all these tracks and dashes. Congrats!!!

Very interesting post.
By: jlux : November 19th, 2022-21:24
I did have the Longines and still have the Omega. Both are winners but there are clear differences: - the Longines has a very attractive dial layout and is without a doubt the price/quality winner - the Omega has a clearly more sophisticated and better fi...

WHY NOT BOTH?! (though I vote for Omega~)
The Longines for me but with an *asterisk
By: YpJ : November 23rd, 2022-23:24
After handling both the Omega and Longines, it's pretty clear why there's such a price difference between the two. I don't mind the busier dial on the Omega but those hands kept bothering me because they're practically identical, not just in appearance, b...
