...the red and blue is unusual. My favorite is the two-tone case/hands...love that! Size (diameter, height)? It looks very slim and in great condition.
...it must be very comfortable. Congratulations on a great piece (and photo).
....and in remarkable condition! Wear it in good health.
I am a huge fan of Longines, given even my username here a Longines portmanteaux. My opinion is that Longines have that roots of heritage, that is unique. Nowadays the house made affordable watches for a lot of people, but it have a charism that appeal to me. Nicolas, enjoy your great Longines, and do not sell your Longines. I do not use the word it, because something great is not an it.
It’s a flyback, isn’t it? I think Longines also made a version with steel hands and indices, but the dual tone here is lovely. Great condition too. Congratulations.
. . . is to sports cars. There's something just right about them . . .
