Agreed re the strap, Larry. Several are shown with brown or tan leather straps that blend in with the coffee colored lume.

Since most of my “good” watches are away until I move, I’m now able to explore some watches I bought for one reason or another 😂 but haven’t really worn much. I think this one is really cool. 42mm. Reference L2.822.4. From 2018. The original is from 1959....

I love it, Steve! “Why did I buy this?” 😂🤣😂

Thanks, Mark! I can say that a lot. lol.

I like the crisp dial and bezel on this Longines. It definitely needs wrist time!

Thank you, M4.

Excellent watch! Screams classic vintage. The warm coffee colored lume just melts. Very good choice. I’d wear it even when the pricier ones are handy, Steve!

Thank you so my friend!

That is one I regret having missed. The Tribute is great looking, the original is a dream.

Thank you, Nico!

I only saw two or three...

Nice one! And yes show us the “dark side” of your collection 😅

Thank you, Emmanuel! Will

Steve, I totally dig that Longines, the bezel and dark dial work well together! I’d definitely put a bright colored strap on it, but that’s me.

Agreed re the strap, Larry. Several are shown with brown or tan leather straps that blend in with the coffee colored lume.

I think that was an original option.

Thanks, Larry!
