Falling back in love with the Longines

This one has been sitting in the watch box for the past few months to the point where I was considering moving it on. And then as temperatures dropped it’s come back onto the wrist. A perfect winter watch. Anyone else have a winter watch?

Great photo. ❤

Thanks! My Saturday morning local coffee place. Pretty hard to take a bad photo there!

·

A beautiful Longens 👌🏻love those lugs 😍

·

How do you do it? Both watch and background look focus, my photo only focus on watch or background

·

Looks good! My watch on leather go in hiding during the summer and come out to play during the winter.

Great watch, great photo! Sadly when winter finally hits here in Canada, does not look like that and a nice watch would be totally obscured by the need for warm gloves. I generally will wear some watch with a leather strap

Ha, yeah I’m not going to lie I have no idea how I did that.

Make sure to be in wide angle mode, not portrait.

Other than that, it depends on the phone, because the blur is added artificially by post-processing algorithms.

Thank you. I will try that

I really like that ETA Valjoux 7751, and think Longines has one of the best dial/hands/case for it. Several times I thought about picking that one up. Nice photo 🍻

What an incredible wristshot man. That's just a great picture, and boy does it tell a story.

That's a beautiful watch, and an awesome photo 👌

Great watch! Love all those complications and the guilloche dial. It’s great on any season

It is beautiful. Actually almost a year to the day that I asked this forum for thoughts between buying this and a BB58.

I LOVE the Master Collection, beautiful piece you have! I have always wondered, if it sits for a while, isn't there a lot to reset once you get it going, with the calendar pointer date, etc.?

But I digress... my Aqua Terra with the dark grey dial seems too "heavy" for summer, so inadvertently it will get a TON of wear in fall/winter, but this was not on purpose at all. What do you all think?? Can it work in summer??

I had worn it from time to time in the last few months, I thought the same when I first bought it but actually it takes only a couple of minutes to get all set up. I love your AT! I’ve never seen that version before, one of the best I’ve seen!

Thank you, at 38.5mm, it could be my favorite watch...pretty near perfect! But now you have me drooling over the Master Collection again!!!

This case design is wonderful.

Grand Seiko Shunbun (spring/cherry blossom) haha 😂. . . Bc I’m perpetually in denial in Minnesota.

That is a beautiful watch though!

I don't have winter watches since I live in a tropical country. But I do travel to countries with winter during winter so, yeah, another thing to think about relating to watches. Damn.

Lovely Longines by the way.

·

What a wonderful watch and a gorgeous shot! I just love Longines also.

·

Great photo and watch. I keep looking at the 4x retrograde, then think about servicing it!

·

Great Photo and a great #longines!

·

Wow what a perfect photo time piece and place very cool.😎

·

That’s class 🤌

Heck of a piece. I sort of do, but I’m thinking of getting a Seiko diver with a winter themed dial; either an “Antarctic” Seiko Monster or the SBDY109 Frost miniturtle.
