Thank you Dreamer ...
39 years passed ... with a blink.
Summer here, that starts - if the world continues, tomorrow but the late spring was brutally hot and dry.
Now we got some rain but the temperature during the day stay in on the upper 32C (90F for the non-decimal guys).
The good news is that rains on every late afternoon, cooling of a little bit and flooding the lower parts of the town, as usual.
Cheers,
Nilo
Yesterday - Two anniversaries (Dec 15th)
Team, Yesterday we celebrated our wedding anniversary. We got married very young and it was our 39th anniversary, believe it or not! Today, recovering from the steak & wine "extravaganza", I notice that yesterday was also is my LLD anniversary. To avo...
I dare say that your pictures do justice to the LLD.
Brilliantissime set of photos, Nilo. And congratulations for your Wedding Anniversary. Can't believe that it is your 39th! Best, my friend. Nicolas.
Even us could not believe ...
I have a VERY understandable wife, for sure. Cheers, Nilo
Your pictures are sublime
And congratulation on you anniversary. I think 40 yrs is the Ruby. So will have some time to plan a small gift. Best Bill
I know watches from 17 to 63 (GP chonos) ...
Any one will be good to go. I bet that she will love a IWC Portuguese! Cheers, Nilo
Stunning pictures !!!
Nilo, you're da man when it comes to photographing the Lld ! Three LLD's ? I've been playing with the idea of buying a second one ... but my watch-collection (if you can call it like that) is far from exquisite :-( ... so i'm saving up for a Speedy .. so ...
Cool pics of your LLD
Mr Bim, This is my #3 (the date one was the #4 - sold). #1 - I sold #2 - Robbed About straps, this one is a Seiko Nylon, that's I use during this terrible hot days of our late spring. The original strap does not lasts and I just got a new one that I'm mai...
Indeed ...
... you told me that before .. but i'm sooo sloooow .... Eagerly awaiting the strap-pics ... Filip
Congrats for these beautiful pics...
and more important, congrats for these anniversaries! Fx
Thank you ...
When I love the watch, is much easier to take good pics. The opposite is when I must take a pic of watches that don't "sing" to me, like gold cased or very dressing ones. Cheers, Nilo
This Longines is indeed beautiful
the hands, the minute ring are uncommon and make this watch very nice . And happy double anniversary Nilo ! Cheers, Mark
That's the magic ...
The original design of the LLD, there are sme happy owners here, is from the early 60's. Cheers, Nilo
Please let Mrs M know . . .
. . . how much we appreciate her willingness to share your time with us. Terrific images, as usual! Best, Art
She just read your post ...
Of course the I share her with her FB posts. Cheers, Nilo
Thank you very much ...
Our best regards to Singapore and to all Singaporeans. Cheers, Nilo
One of the best looking Longines, to me.
And it looks beautiful in your pictures. Congrats to you and your wife. Vte :)
Stunning pictures, stunning watch and stunning......
39 years of marriage!! CONGRATULACOES.............to your wife for having been able to cope with a watch "freak" for so long:):) wishing you both another 39 years! Cheers from Down Under. Francois
Thank you mate ...
We have many friends in Down Under. If it was a little closer, we could be there every year. Cheers, Nilo
Congrats, Nilo!
The photos are, as always with you, stunning! I can't believe you have had three of these! Well, as they say, the third time's the charm. Congratulations on both anniversaries! respo
As a matter of fact ...
#2 was removed from my wrist at gun point. I cannot say that I let it go ... Thank you for all, Nilo
Happy anniversary Nilo...
for your marriage and your watch! The LLD is probably the best that modern Longines has to offer.
I agree about the LLD but ...
I will never go to understand why there are so few re editions. It could be impossible to resist if the manufacturers released a modernized versions of the: a) Omega Seamaster 300 b) Rolex Submariner 6200 c) Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Aqualung c) Breitling N...
Congratulations on 39 years! Love...
... the Legend Diver, Longines is my all-time favorite value brand, you get some much bang for your buck. Your photos are absolutely fantastic, thank you for sharing. Best, Sam
Happy Anniversary (on both occasions)!
The watch is definitely a keeper, and I know I will never get rid of mine either. The news that you've been married 39 years is even more inspiring in this crazy world of ours! I wish you many, many more years of happiness with both your wife and your wat...
Thank you Daos ...
And believe me. It was not easy (on both sides) to reach this mark. She is gifted with patience. Lots of it. Cheers, Nilo
As a matter of fact, our true cellebration was ...
With the family, was on a nice steak house (Yes, I know that I broke my diet). Quick sample of the steak "orgy": Thank you, Nilo ...
Breathtaking pics of a fascinating watch!!
But, of course, your wedding anniversary is the much more important!! Best wishes from my LLD, too! Marcus ...
Thank you Marcus ...
The LLD is one of the most photogenic watches that I own. It compares with the JLC Amvox 1 in terms of photogenic capabilities. The combination of the small bezel and the protruding crystal associated with the somehow mate dial is a killer combination. An...
double congrates...
,,, happy with you, nilo. such long marriage is really easy task, but you did it, am sure more anniversary years to come for celebrations. your pics for LLD show up really beautiful that also makes me feel to keep mine too. cheers, stefan
Thank you for the double ...
Congratulations and congratulations to you for being a member of the large LLD community here. Some day we should do a thread (or another one) with all LLD here. Cheers, Nilo
I'm impressed with your excuse to ...
... take photos of the LLD! Best wishes to you and your (very understanding) partner of 39 years. Time flies!? Congratulations and thanks for your fantastic contribution to PuristS. Andrew
Thank you Andrew ...
My wife loved your demonstration of Aussie humor. To learn that time flies one needs to have a granddaughter. Ours, "yesterday" was a little baby, now she is ... bigger every day! Between us, the excuse ... is true. Cheers, Nilo
A belated congrats, Nilo
You're one lucky man! Ps and great shots as always. This LLD therapy works the opposite of vaccines,the more you see te more you can't resist it's charms!
congratulations on 39 years.
my parents celebrated 60 years together 2 weeks ago. i find cards are hard to buy as not many people make it that long :) as for the LLD, you dont need 2 so bear me in mind as i often think i should get one. all the best G
Thank you Lord G.
G., You must get one LLD. It's a very cool watch and you be able to join an ever increasing club here. Cheers, Nilo
Double Belated Congratulations Nilo..
Wow, 39 years of marriage. Congratulations to both of you and what a great way to celebrate with a great steak. It looks rare to me ( thats how I like mine ) . Washed down with a few glasses of wine ? Beautiful pictures of the LLD. I need one to complemen...

You are lying...in your moderator papers...you filled in your age as 21 :)-
Jokes aside...happy anniversary. I live the LLD...I have the one with date, that I haven't worn since I bought it!!! It's a horological sin, and I will correct it very soon!! Best, Horo
The moderator papers ...
Have a Y2K issue. It was 121 not 21. He he. Please, give to the LLD a try. Is lighter than your PAM and, so I hear, dresses very well on a ... ankle. Add to that the fact that you can give good use for 40mm Panerai straps, if you have any. Cheers, Nilo
A belated congratulation, Nilo!
I hope you had a great day! :) As for your LLD - stunning photos! Maybe I will have to give it another try... Best, my friend Blomman
Thank you my friend ... from the cold
It was a great day and, until the end of the year, I'm on a red meat avoidance mode. It was an meat orgy (see picture above). You must give to the LLD another try. Is, IMHO, an ideal beater. Cheers, Nilo
