Yeah, the chronos are nice. I like the GMT and white faced versions without the divers bezel.



I really want a white face GMT....

Looks fantastic, until recently I had an anthracite MB2, if I wasn't holding out to see what the MB3 looks like in the flesh I would have another MB2 because I REALLY miss it, probably more than I would any other watch!

Noice. Very noice.

I keep looking at those and think I might pull the trigger on one. Where did you get your's? Getting lots of wrist time I guess.

Anyone know a good place to get deals on new Longines watches?

Excellent choice. I've long been a Fortis fan, but only have one:



Who says the date and time have to make any sense on a wristcheck wink
They are a little underrated I think, but at least that makes them good value used.

Second vote for Iconic (only connection, a happy customer).

I like the one you're looking at, but less keen on the one you have, if I'm honest.

The "Racing Number" thing never works in my opinion (and I'm not a huge fan of brown either).

Can't go wrong with Longines, though, in my books - Excellent watches for the money.

I'm eager to see what the bronze of the MB3 looks like, looks lovely in pics that have been posted so far.
The MB2 has a nicer dial IMHO though, its a shame that the MB3 dropped the little red warning triangle it made the dial look a little more complete (plus i'm not a fan of the newer logo font)

I've owned pretty much every Seamaster of the last few years, all went in the end. I have a feeling, especially for what I paid, that this one will stick around. I put it on a wjean shark mesh this morning and really like it!

LOL i chose it because i wanted a brown face- they are not that common and i think the Longines watches are quite understated. There are a few models of the Heritage line that i like, but the first one stood out to me.

It'd be boring if we all liked the same thing smile

I've got the one that you're looking at. It's a very nice watch and I think it's a really good size - not too big, not too small.

The strap on mine is on the way out after just under 4 years although I do take it off every night when I'm wearing it. I'm thinking of getting a new strap on a deployment buckle to reduce wear and tear a bit.

I think that these 7750-based models are looking like great value at the moment. I have a hankering for one to put on my blue Omega rubber strap.
