That is very nice. Longines are the only brand I’m interested in these days, I really like their reissues of classic watches, at sensible prices. The Big Eye in particular…

Currently on sale. It’s a lot of watch for the money. I already have a Hydroconquest so can’t quite justify it though I am sorely tempted…

Continuing on a Longines roll, I present my Avigation A7

Definitely quirky and an acquired taste, but I think it looks fantastic with the off centre dial and that crown.

Thanks for the watch love, I have a Legend Diver too, with the Sailcloth strap & mesh bracelet. All interchangeable.

Both cracking VFM smile

Had a day out in town today and tried on a couple from my wish list in the Regent St Boutique.
The 75th anniversary Ultra Deep is just stunning in the metal, definitely will be my next purchase.

Really like the dark side.

So watches of choice for the US tour are the new Oceanus and AE1300. It’s one of Casio’s most legible IMO. Last night out with colleagues and there were some watch people, the S100 went down pretty well. I’m quite keen on it already.

P39 back on it's bracelet...it's something when the bracelet weighs near as dammit the same as a NATO (admittedly a thick NATO with lots of steel paraphernalia attached lol)

Wow, that's the first Super Racing I've seen in the wild! What was it like? Dying to try one on, may have to visit. My AD hasn't let me know if they have them in yet punch

The Ultra Deep does look stunning too, bet that was a lump to wear biggrin

The Super Racing looks so much better in the metal than in any photo's. The yellow is much less in your face, almost a pastel yellow & looks fantastic.
My only gripe is that the bracelet, although very comfortable like a jubilee bracelet, tapers quite aggressively & the clasp is very narrow & a little too dressy for my liking.
I much prefer the bracelet on my regular Speedy Racing.

The Ultra Deep is just beautiful, whichever way you look at it, it makes a Sea Dweller Deep Sea look plain & cheap in comparison.
I have quite large (21cm) wrists so it sits quite nicely on me & felt great.

2013 Seamaster 300m today.

Still have a soft spot for this piece. The dial without waves looks clean.

Post aluminium bezel.
Pre laser cut wave dial.
Guess it is in the middle of transition in the model line.

Interesting, wonder why they've done that for such a big watch. I guess can always switch it. Were they asking £11k?

Yeah it's a stunning thing the ultra deep.

Yes 11k for the Super racing and 12.3k for the ultra deep.
