Clean, classic, gorgeous

Fuego, baby…FOO-WAY-GO! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

·

I'm a bit tired of diver style but that one looks great!

·

Tad too big for my wrist, but I love the design, the date window position, the whole dial furniture.

·

I was so stoked on this piece but yesterday i went to two different authorized dealers to check them out in real life. Both had the black model available... one had it on the bracelet and one on the leather... and here comes the bummer: both models had a misaligned bezel... slightly to the right side. I was shocked 😮 i was already shocked when my 1000 bugs seiko willard came missaligned but to see a 2.700 bugs longines with a misaligned bezel really turned me off 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ the blue one is still high on my list.. they will get it in the next three weeks and i will probably check it out. But if the third one is also missaligned then i will not buy it 😞

Love it but would prefer if it was 40mm

BIG fan  - especially the all black with the bracelet but unfortunately it's too big and heavy for my wrist.

·

This is a model that I'm planning to check out at the local AD. There have been a few other Longines models that really appeal to me, but which just don't work for me due to the length of the lugs.

·

so beautiful, but it look little too big

·

So awesome! It's on my buy list for sure. I have a few other pieces ahead of it, but it will get purchased.

·

I dig it. Way too big for my tiny wrists, but I dig it

·

It's stunning but like others I wish it was a smaller

·

Drop dead gorgeous!

Male menopause hey 😂

I love the watch but I still don't get the name.  What is the Zulu reference? 

·

Nice symmetry. What is the L2L on this piece?

·

It’s a beauty. It‘ll be on my wrist some day. 

·

A really stunning design. Too big for me personally... But it looks great for those who can pull it off.

Zulu time is just another term for UTC or GMT.

Did the ADs notice or say anything about misalignment?

I was showing them the misalignment but i realised they dont get it what i am talking about 😆 both were women and both ads are locacted in a big shopping mall near vienna. So these people usually dont sell to watchgeeks and more to the mainstream people out there. I am also pretty sure that there are no watchmakers in these shops, just unaducated sellers who do their job... it is always sad when you realise as a watchgeek you know more about a piece than the person who wants to sell it to you 🤦‍♂️

·

Damned! The dial is just like no other. Hands are very interesting.  Can stare at this piece al day 

·

Great watch, but I could do without the wing logo and the stars... just too busy for me.

I think it detracts from an otherwise beautiful dial.

·

Beautiful!

·

I tried it on twice, and I want to love it, but I think it's too big. I'd be all over it if it came in a 40mm or smaller. The salesman tried convince me that it fit my 6.5" wrist. He might not be wrong, but to my eye it's just too slabby and chunky. Both times they only had it on a strap. I would like to try it on a bracelet, but I'm afraid it would only be worse.

GMT/UTC is called Zulu time in the aviation industry and military. It’s the name Longines’ original GMT pilot watch from the 1920s as well.

Thanks for the explanation.
