While buying a new strap today I saw this...

Looked lovely in the flesh.

ETA its a Longines grand vitesse priced at almost £1500.

I was looking at Longines all last night on the net and this caught my eye too - it looks lovely!

They are much more appealing than all the Seiko's I saw in the next cabinet along.

Are you a Hulk (sorry) or is it a sensible size? That looks good, and unless you've got pro-wrestler arms and it's really 45mm across, almost back to how sports chronographs *ought* to be sized...

Longines is an old, evocative name... are the current watches related or was there a brand re-badge job? I'm not sniping, I know nothing about Longines apart from associating them with 'official timing' of sports when a child - any experts here like to educate me?

Hopefully it has a Longines movement in it, and not an ETA 7750?

Unlucky, they call it the L667 but it's a 7750 assembled in house.
