I recently wrote an article about the best 34mm watches that anyone can wear, and although the marketing is mostly feminine-orientated, I believe that the new additions to the Longines Master Collection could well be another option.

A gold watch. What do you think of when I say those words? A gaudy piece of jewellery that shows you have more money than taste. Or maybe the ultimate flex.
