Absolutely agree!

No wonder it was so hard...

You in aeronautics or a Star Trek fan

I have been a fan of this watch from the day they launched it .

Many thanks all! Now...

... to put this on a deployant? Any other strap options suggested - current strap is great, but have a yearning for something less โ€œflatโ€.

Very nice watch,

Jaeger says thanks :)

you are welcome! ...  

Arthur is a handsome boy!

How old is he? I love all hounds!

Well,

 
 By: Speedie74 aka Mr. Torquise : February 17th, 2021-11:59
he is over 3 years old now, but this picture was taken around a year ago... Is Jaeger also a weimaraner, am I right?

Yes, he is a Weim...

 
 By: APROchrono : February 17th, 2021-14:00
... only 5 months old ...  

Oh, so sweet!

 
 By: Speedie74 aka Mr. Torquise : February 17th, 2021-14:15
Looks already bigger than ours... ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜€ This is the time, when you must hide everything away from him... How did you get a Weim in Singapore? I think they are not common in your country, or?

Sent you a PM

I've had my eyes on one of these...

 
 By: robsallnow : February 16th, 2021-10:50
but have yet to see one in the flesh due to lockdown. Can you describe the colour of the dial? On their website they describe it as 'silver' but I'm hoping it is as it appears in many of the photos I've seen: a creamy colour

Rob, just checked...

 
 By: APROchrono : February 16th, 2021-22:56
... you need to take a look at it in person. The dial seems to have two tones of silver - the outer track and the subdials are more silver, while the inner circle is still silver but does have a creaminess to it. It is still silver to my eyes. Best to see... 

Great looking Longines

Many know me as a man who loves his Omega Seamaster. My other passion in Longines, and many of the heritage collection is my kind of watch. On 12 February Chinese New Year iโ€™ve got my first Conquest. It is also the heritage collection i discovered at the ...  

Thanks Weems - lovely Conquest

 
 By: APROchrono : February 16th, 2021-15:02
Thanks for posting the picture of your clasp. I will probably be going into the service centre to take a look at the deployant and hope they have a single deployant, which I find easier to put on.

Thank you

Best APRO, Here in Europe iโ€™d experienced the Swatch group service as perfect. They do not behave difficult if something is wrong with the watch. Affordable or luxury, their watches must be perfect if the customer wear them. I know some Dutch watch design... 

Love Omegas too...

 
 By: APROchrono : February 16th, 2021-23:00
My first โ€œrealโ€ watch was a Seamaster Bond. Still wears and runs beautifully.

I like every Swatch group watch

 
 By: Weems@8 : February 16th, 2021-23:15
From Flik Flak to Jaquet Droz. Richemont have great watches. Kering with GP and Ulysse Nardin made wonders. I considered a Bond watch.

Very nice! Great value!

 
 By: patrick_y : February 16th, 2021-12:54

Many thanks - I agree

 
 By: APROchrono : February 16th, 2021-15:03
Most of the Heritage line are great value.

What a great pick-up!

 
 By: Lankysudanese : February 16th, 2021-19:48
Excellent choice. The recent Longines heritage offerings are tipping the value/price scale in a way that hasnโ€™t been seen in a long time.

Love yours too LS!

 
 By: APROchrono : February 16th, 2021-22:58
I tried on the Marina Militare but was a bit small on my wrist. But what a lovely dial and those blued hands!! Agree with you 100% on the value/price scale. I would love to buy a few of the Heritage collection if the CFO allowed!

Lol @ CFO.

Great saying...
