Larrykelley11 shares LA watch store visits, acquiring a Longines Legend Diver 42mm grey dial. Discover dealer insights and watch preferences.

Larrykelley11 recounts a successful watch-hunting trip to Los Angeles, highlighting Feldmar in Beverly Hills as a standout dealer. This post captures the thrill of an unexpected acquisition, with the author securing a Longines Legend Diver and another special piece. The accompanying photos and community discussion offer insights into watch preferences and dealer experiences.

I had two very nice days visiting multiple watch stores and Boutiques, have to say that Feldmar in Beverly Hills was the highlight. They have many great brands and an excellent inventory. I didn’t plan on purchasing anything, but as sometimes occurs, I get caught up in the moment. I mentioned on an earlier post that I decided on the 42mm grey dial Longine Legend, which is a great diver for the money. I also picked out something more special, that I don’t currently have in my collection. I’ll post those pics when it arrives next week. In the mean time here are a few random pics from my visit to Feldmar and my Batman which accompanied me for most of the trip.

Key Points from the Discussion

The 42mm grey dial Longines Legend Diver is praised as a great diver for its value, with the smoke grey dial being particularly attractive.
The green Longines Legend Diver, while vibrant, might not suit all skin tones and raises concerns about its long-term appeal due to potential trendiness.
Rostovsky in LA is recommended as another excellent dealer, known for its amazing rare pieces and knowledgeable staff.
The Rolex GMT-Master II 'Batman' is a popular travel companion, accompanying the author on their LA trip.
