Some Longines Diver Love.

It has been written thousands of times, The Longines Legend Diver is a Community Watch. Many of us fell for it. With reason. After all, this is one of the rare modern Longines which is faithful to the original, splendid, well made, with a gorgeous dial, a...  

nice Longines Diver

great watch you have there! I love them. Is yours the first reference (7042) or one of the later ones? The first references (7042-1) are increasingly difficult to find..

7150-2 from 1964... My beloved year. ;) [nt]

I'd add one. Not at he bottom but on top of your list of 4. The vintage Vulcain cricket nautical. BR

Of course! Where was my mind to forget it!!!

I am running after one for a too long time, I guess... You are ABSOLUTELY correct, so correct that I would put it in the top 4. Best, Z. Nicolas

I am surely tempted by the duo dear Nicolas...

... but regrettably never have seen a vintage one down here. I already got the modern version, but be assured I will not let pass a vintage one if it ever crosses Dexter´s path! Beautiful example you got there my friend! With a lovely patinated dial! I´m ... 

Hot Damn do I love the no date tribute

so much in fact that I just purchased 1...The wait begins....

You did very well. I have the vintage stuck on the wrist since last Sunday.

And I will maybe wear the Re Edition, this week end, to change a bit. ;) Best, Nicolas.

oh yes, very tempted by both....

of course the vintage would be THE one, but the modern is without a doubt, the best re-edition by any manufacturer (although I hear Omega have recently released a nice modern Seamaster, based on vintage) Lovely photos, of lovely watches. Cheers Tony

These Vintages are real Candies !.. Strong personalities.. Superb line-up !.. :)

I have to say, that this Longines Diver Re-edition indeed looks nice, not to speak about your other marvels, of course. - They all have a sort of timeless self-presentation, a feature that just is there, sticks there.. Still, the two Polaris pieces are an... 

The good think with the Re Edition of the Longines Diver is...

That it is a real bargain... It won't cost you a Tenth of a Kidney. Now, the problem might be to find one, without date. Not impossible, though. Aaah, Watch wallets.... ;) Best, Nicolas

If I've learned something, than this.. ;)) = :)))

.. Agree - its just from time to time, the rationale may be healthy, although not always makes you happy ! - But I guess, I'm starting to complain on a reasonably middle-high level !.. Thanks again, hs ;)

I agree, one of the nicest.....

...........two crown rehaut diver watches of that time. The dial is amazing, difficult to properly catch on photos. I got it with the origninal box, hang tags and guarantee booklet. ...  

WOWOWOW!!! What a set! Now, that is something we RARELY see!

Thank you so much! Can I save the " package pictures " in my HD? Best, Nicolas

Bien sûr! [nt]

be proud of the amazing patina on the dial of yours.....

........and not talking of the Polaris. One of my few grails that I need to hunt down.
