Doesn't seem to have that intermediate position. Not been serviced since its 2008 purchase date so might be a case of needing some tlc. Its in mint condition so I don't think it's been dropped or anything. My watchmaker can take a look Monday.
Some Longines chronograph models have an inset date-change button at 10 o-clock rather than using the crown.
Hmmm! I'll try that button!

Nice. The quality of packaging and detail with these watches is fantastic. It's a proper event receiving one. Military, ex and serving get a great discount too!

Just out of interest, did you get any "freebies"?

I was hoping for maybe a keyring or some such thing but nothing.

Not for a second old chap.

Seeing as it works now I think I'll keep it. Need to get rid of a watch now though as my box is full. Tag F1 I reckon.

Yeah, Longines i'snt a brand that i normally look at with interest. This one came in and i took to it instantly. It is quite big, probably bigger than any of my other watches. Good excuse to get rid of one of my quartz beaters!

Been a while since my last post, but just got this a week ago and I'm liking it - Moto360. Battery life is very good >24 hrs most days and it's fun to change faces and have instant access to my notifications and have other apps on the watch as well. It's definitely a toy for the work week, but I like it.
