It’s not the sort of watch I’d stare at slack-jawed while browsing social media, but it sure is easy on the eyes.
Love the look, totally.

You Decide! Is This A Great Watch?

Longines heritage Classic 38.5mm x 10mm 70hr power reserve. On bracelet or strap. I was struck by the classic look, very well done. Of course, we can always apply our watchautism and say "if not for this or that tiny detail..." and the "eaten 6" is a clas...
That's hilarious!

A feature, not a bug (or butt) for me!

and takes you back to that era of sector dials. Nothing beats the crunch of winding a crown and yes agree the closed back dial suits this better…
Makes sense!

I have a feeling they needed the typographer in the 40s or whenever this comes from.

Love it and love the BoR bracelet…

Have already put my name down at the boutique to go see it when it comes. Plan is to either buy the watch or to order the BoR bracelet to put on my Heritage Tuxedo Chronograph. I believe they are the same lug width (19mm) but different case diameter.
Not to hijack the thread...

...but here is an amateurish amalgamation of two photos from the Longines website. Let me know what you think of the end result. Moderators please delete if I am violating any forum rules. ...
Your wish is my command :)

A horrible effort, but I think it gives you the gist. May look a bit cold and sterile. ...
Have you seen it live?

Would love to hear your view - I really wanted to like it but just couldn’t!
Ended up...

... ordering the Forstner BoR bracelet. Still waiting for it to come and will post pics of the Tux with it on. Reddit had a photo if anyone is interested [hope i am not violating forum rules, but please delete if so]
Too nice!

Merci!

Hope it looks nice on the watch. My only concern is the drop from the lugs to the bracelet - more vintage but let’s see how it looks

Would particularly like this on the white dial version
Hehe :-)

Am I right to say that Longines is under orders…
By: Rosneathian : August 12th, 2021-06:16
… from Swatch not to do anything to encroach on Omega? Pity because it was once Omega’s equal. Having said that I think Longines does as well as any mainstream watch brand to re-run watches from its golden years, and it has a vast back catalogue to choose...
