Just got this.

So far, I remain thoroughly-impressed.

Will provide a detailed review after I’ve worn it for at least a week.

Very nice, about as simple as it gets, nothing more is needed.

I am pretty much a time only or time and date guy. I really do not need anything with a lot of complications, just something else to go wrong.

Simply beautiful

Thank you.

Get one: no waiting list, I promise.

Yes, a very good catch. Congrats. Here is the original.

Fab Suisse? I thought Fab Italian. 🤔

Something to do with French military issued equipment needing to disclose the country of origin.

The marine nationale (for French navy) was produced by Longines (Swiss). www.watchtime.com

My poor attempt at humor. There is a member with the name Fab who moderates the PP forum. 🙃

Please ignore my ignorance.

By: Lankysudanese : January 24th, 2021-02:55

That’s what I get for posting [clandestinely] during a board meeting 🤦🏿‍♂️ 😂

LOL, guys.

Never seen this before very nice watch.

By: FRAMII : January 24th, 2021-02:30

Limited watch journalism coverage (DINKEE, watchtime and time+tide are all that I saw) and YouTube reviews.

By: Lankysudanese : January 24th, 2021-02:42

It’s a hidden-gem of a 2020-release IMHO

I am in for a review if I can put my hands on one. ;)

By: amanico : January 24th, 2021-03:19

Happy to ship it over, if we can both avoid paying import duties.

By: Lankysudanese : January 24th, 2021-03:32

I live in the UAE 😝

Well, I have a better solution. Come to Paris ( one day when possible, ) or I come to UAE. I have several friends to meet there. ;)

Perfect

By: Lankysudanese : January 24th, 2021-04:04

Deal!

By: amanico : January 24th, 2021-04:19

Thanks just emailed my local AD to check if he has one 👍

By: FRAMII : January 24th, 2021-06:05

Very cool!

By: blau : January 24th, 2021-03:07

I've been thinking about this one as well. There've been so many excellent throwback Longines watches over the last few years, but this is the first one that's REALLY tempting me.

I was mainly considering the sector dial (even surveyed the WPS members with a post),

By: Lankysudanese : January 24th, 2021-03:09

but this one captured my mind and attention once I saw it in the store.

Big congrats Hussam! Longline vintage inspired piece is really nice!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : January 24th, 2021-04:21

Looks good on you!

You are too kind. 🙏🏿

By: Lankysudanese : January 24th, 2021-04:33

Trying to get confirmation on COSC certification [pertinent info for you and I]

Indeed let me know what you find out...Longine has several very nice vintage looking model in its current line-up and I always wonder how are their rate accuracy!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : January 24th, 2021-06:53

Very nice looking watch — and the strap is a very nice complement to it!

By: orahu : January 24th, 2021-05:06

Congrats! It looks just right on your wrist.

Thank you 🙏🏿
