Longines Master Collection 190TH ANNIVERSARY

Saw few posts last week about this new release from Longines.  The Breguet style Arabic numerals caught my attention on this three-handed dress watch which gave me Naoya Hida sorta vibes.

Stopped by the new Longines Boutique in Central (Hong Kong) last week and asked to see it.  They took my name and contact as they didn't have it yet 1 week ago.  As I was walking with my son to his rugby practice, I received a message from the boutique, they had one (for me...).  Saw it in the flesh and couldn't resist!  40mm (a bit bigger than my favourite go to 38mm) but only 9.35mm thick.  Clear caseback, blued hands, deployant clasp, vintage Longines logo, pure class!

Congrats! This is a seriously good dial and execution is on point, especially considering the price point. I got my hands on one earlier in the year at a press preview event and it's been lingering in the back of my head ever since. Great pick up!

Looks fab. Longines killed it with this release.

Just beautiful. I got my first Longines yesterday and I’m loving it too.

Truthfully, Longines has never been on my radar - until this release. Make this 36-38mm and I'd get my butt to a Longines AD to try it on 😉.

As you mentioned, it does have Naoya Hida vibes, which I love. The Armoury x Naoya Hida Lettercutter is one of my unattainable grails.

Nice mate! Really like the Longines Master Collection watches.

Enjoy it :)

I have the Master Calender with the Moonphase stuck in my head.

Stunning piece 😍 A dresswatch can be a bit bigger, no?

I personally believe it's more elegant when under 39mm.  Will get used to this one though 😉

I enjoy smaller watches myself but there ia more that mm's to how a watch wears ☺️
