Our take on the Longines Master Collection Automatic 38.5mm Power Reserve Men's

The Longines Master Collection Automatic 38.5mm is a Swiss dress watch with a self-winding L602 movement, a 42-hour power reserve, and a power reserve indicator on the dial. It pairs a stainless steel case with an alligator strap, sapphire crystal, and a silver dial with blued hands and Arabic numerals. At 38.5mm wide and about 10-11mm thick, it wears comfortably under a cuff. Its latest best price sits at the low end of its recent range, making it a strong value among Swiss automatics with a power reserve display.

Questions and answers

Is the Longines Master Collection 38.5mm worth it?
Yes, if you want a Swiss automatic dress watch with a power reserve indicator. Few watches near this price offer that complication with sapphire crystal and an alligator strap.
Can I swim with it?
No. It is rated to 3 bar (30 meters), which covers splashes and rain but not swimming or showering.
How long is the power reserve?
About 42 hours when fully wound. The sub-dial shows how much reserve remains.
What size wrist does the 38.5mm case fit?
It suits wrists roughly 6 to 7.5 inches well. Smaller wrists get a balanced look; larger wrists may find it modest.
What comes in the box?
Typically the watch on its alligator strap, a Longines presentation box, and warranty paperwork. Confirm the included items with the seller.
When is it cheapest?
Grey-market and discount watch retailers tend to undercut boutiques, and prices often dip during holiday sales. Its latest best price is already near the low end of its recent range.
