LA watch store visit ends at Feldmar. Purchased Longine Legend. Stay tuned for more watch pics. Batman watch accompanies. Visit concluded tomorrow.

LA visit ends tomorrow

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.

39mm Legend Terracotta

Great looking movement

Ah, so YOU got to see the green LLD! I can't find one here. Looks like it doesn't have the fade to darker dial like my bronze green or your nice new gray one has (rats!). Well, good, maybe

I'm safe (LOL!). Too bad traffic in So Cal is such a battle. It would have been nice to meet you there and join in on the look but don't buy (haha) tour of LA!

Would have enjoyed your expertise on this trip! The green was a vibrant and I went into this thinking the Terracotta was prettier.

How did you find the terracotta dial?

It was my favorite prior to seeing in person, it didn’t work with my skin tone so well. Maybe worried that it won’t look so great years from now, too trendy?

I think you might be right on this one. I want to like the dial but not sure it would pass the test of time!

That smoke grey Legend is wonderful.

Hey Filip, i wish that i could have seen it in the flesh, but that grey is very sexy IMO. Thanks!

The grey Legend immediately wowed me! Looking forward to your wrist shots.

Thanks for the kind words and i will definitely post some images. Such a great value.

In LA my favorite dealer is Rostovsky

I will make note of that for the next trip.

LLD for me and the Batman, which is an excellent travel companion.

You are so correct about the Batman, it’s appropriate for all occasions.

Well, I would love to get one.

Congrats on the Longines!!!

Thanks Patrick! That is an excellent question, nothing planned for the foreseeable future. Is that home for you?

It used to be!

Very nice, I’ve been to Newport Beach a couple of times…back in the day.

The gray color on that Longines suits him very well. An elegant diver.

It ticks all of the boxes for me, I’m excited to receive it.

I’m envious, it looks like you had a wonderful time. Great pictures.

It was an enjoyable trip Tony! Thanks!
