:: LONGINES LEGEND DIVER ::









OPINION                                                          

This watch is a reissue of the legendary model produced by Longines in the 60s, the LONGINES LEGEND DIVER, to be one watches first models with a case supercompressor for improve hermetism. This model respects aesthetically to the original model.

 From the collection Longines "Heritage", has become a bestseller in a short time and in a reference model for all fans.

The legend diver comes in a beautifully polished 42mm diameter stainless steel case. the thickness of the piece is 13.5mm. the strap on this piece is a non original brown leather strap.

 The movement in this watch is what longines calls its’ caliber L633, which is just a modified ETA 2824-2 self-winding movement. power reserve is roughly 38 hours and water resistance is to 300 meters.
I put the Longines Legend Diver in my watch collection top ten. This watch have a classical aspect and same time looks sportive.

 I have changed the black original strap for another in brown leather from HIRSCH brand. I think this watch with black dial looks better with brown strap.
