My wife bought me this watch last week as a 10th Wedding Anniversary gift. We were cruising New Zealand and Fiji out of Sydney and it was bought on our last night of the cruise. I absolutely love it. It's also my very first watch above £500. My father was a watch maker and I well remember sitting at the dining room table 'watching' him make components, cleaning them, reassembling them. He also had a Longine watch as a gift from his parents for his 21st birthday, which I have. Think I may visit my 'Evil Wicked Step Daughter' who currently works for Swatch in Switzerland and visit Longine whilst I'm there....
Do you have to adjust the watch in months with just 30 days?
After having the Picture of this beauty on my Mobile phone for over a year, starring at it on a daily basis and wearing it several type at the vendors, I finally bought it (with a separate Leather Strap) and now it's sitting in front of me on the desk and I can't take my eyes off it.
Just a beautiful piece of horlogerie :)
I have started eyeing it
I love this for you!
We wants it, Precious. We wants it, and we means to have it.
It's like Waygu Beef at some hole in the wall Japanese restaurant.

I got it I love it my precious❤
Beware the watch dealers are trixy..
@hey it's pete Smeagol thinks Pete smells… juicy
I have this watch for some years now, with leather strap, AND I LOVE IT. In my opinion, if you want a truly technologically advanced watch, this is the ONLY one that comes in an 'earthy' price, everything else similar is much more expensive. Aesthetically IT is fabulous and its thickness (the only weakness from a design point) goes really unnoticed. I can list numerous pros but let's stick to the cons for everyday usage: First, the brown alligator leather strap is great but when it wears out or get damaged (which is a matter of 2-3 years at the most) replacing it with original is a very costly (comparatively) matter (more than 200 euros, strap cost only), a very similar looking (decent quality but certainly inferior to the original) leather strap can be found at one tenth or less of the price and is a much more sensible solution. Second, regarding practicality, as correctly mentioned in the video , seeing the time might be a little (not too much) confusing sometimes. The reason for it is actually the date arm which can be confused with the minutes ' arm. In my opinion this problem would have been resolved if the date' arm was of a different colour (eg margenta, this would have probably made its looks a little less 'classy' but with the right alternative colour this would have not been an issue). Also, the 'Longines' logo could have been in 3-D and not 'printed' - a visible improvement at negligible cost. Coming now to the main con, maintenance.... The watch was working flawlessly (very accurately) for 4-5 years when suddenly it started to 'stuck'. I got it to the local official service and they told me it needed 'upgraded' cleaning necessitating dismantle which means it had to go to the factory in Switzerland. Cost 400 euros, waiting time 4 months ... . They also noted that this is not abnormal , the watch collects dust and I should have been taking it for preventive cleaning every year or so.... To me this is absolutely bullocks... we are talking about a waterproof watch, I can not understand how can 'dust' go in that easily but ok this may happen... but if I have to take the watch for 'cleaning' every year, this means I would essentially be re-paying for the watch every 6-7 years, it simply does not make sense... May be I was unlucky, which can happen, but if this is 'common' it is not nice at all (the watch was handled with care, it is not that it fell down or anything, which is why thay did not find any 'damage' as such...). In any case the above issues are essentially minor, this is trully a GREAT watch and it comes at a very very reasonable price (it is actually very very cheap for a swiss hand-made automatic multi function watch...)
You are correct about the dust problem being bollocks. My Aunt worked in a Omega shop for 45 years and she told me that the servicing recommendations are a well known "scam" within the industry. She told me that people should wear their watches (without fear of not servicing) and simply wait for something to go wrong. when it does, (And this could take 30 years)...."Get it fixed!!" It may cost you £1000 or more but think much it would have cost you in servicing costs over 2 or 3 decades. At the end of the day, they are businesses and their servicing scams are a way of getting their customers to pay again and again for the same watch.
@@saymyname218 Thank you very much my friend for your comments.I fully agree with you, despite my aforementioned experince I would not be taking my watch for 'cleaning' every year, it is pointless and bad vfm, I would rather take my chances and in any case when you buy such a complicated mechanism you do expect that if something goes wrong it would not be a quick or cheap fix... and the money they asked may be significant for the price of the watch but it is very reasonable for getting the watch fixed by the manufacturer in Switzerland (and I do understand how much a technician's wage is in Switzerland...)
@@SigaSigaJohn Quick question. Does this include the annual calendar as well, or do I have to adjust the day and month every month too? I feel that this would have been the perfect “complete” watch if there is an annual calendar to it, especially at the price point. 🥲
@@eugeneteehee As in every mechanical watch, you have to adjust manually the date at the end of months that do not have 31 days, ie when the month has 30 days you have to advance the date manually one day ahead to change the month. This is quite easy, one click through the crown. Otherwise the watch follows calendar / days, months, moon phases etc on its own. If you let the watch out of operation for a long period which means you have to adjust all parameters manually (ie time, day, date, month, moonphase) then this will take more time, a couple of minutes but is not difficult. Nevertheless, if you let the watch out of order too often which means you have to make full adjustments very frequently, my feeling (is just a feeling...) is that the related springs etc are somewhat sensitive and they may need maintenance. I hope I helped!
@@SigaSigaJohn Thanks for the reply. You sort of did answer my question with your confirmation for this watch, but I believe you may not know that there are annual calendar watches, and then there’s perpetual calendar.
Let’s start with perpetual calendar. As the name goes, it’s perpetual, so you won’t have to change the date (day and month) at all, even for February (both non-leap and leap years). It’s a very interesting mechanism. This usually applies up until the year 2100, then you need to adjust it just once for the next 100 years. There are also some high end ones that are do up until year 2499 or so.
Annual calendar is like the middle ground (between the typical date watch and the perpetual calendar). You don’t have to change it every month, but you must change it every year, because it is able to adjust accordingly for 30/31 days based on the specific month, EXCEPT February, so you must move it to 1st March, ANNUALLY. See what I mean? This was started by Patek Phillipe in 1995, which is fairly new in the watch world.
Longines has annual calendar watches in their master collection, by the way, but it’s just that. My dream watch is having annual calendar and a chronograph combined. It would have been the perfect “complete” watch for me. 🙂
Longines is one of those brands that doesn’t give too much away about the wearer other than they have good taste and class. Love this watch!
One of Switzlerlands oldest watchmaking company, the Longines name is every bit as impressive as other brands. Not to forget it was one of suppliers of the RAF during the second world war, that bit of heritage is hard to ignore
I'm guessing the RAF didn't use this watch at night. No lume anywhere?
@@ChannelGarrett you've never heard of G-Shock?
@@terrysky83 What is it with the "lume obession", "eye roll....". It's a freakin DRESS WATCH.
As if supplying RAF is a compliment lmao, rat traitors of Europe
That’s what the moon is for. And thanks to this watch you’ll always know when to expect it! 😂
I think this watch is incredible value for money: Chronograph, Day/Date/Month, 24hr, Moon phase and just +3sec/day!
All that in an elegant, beautifully designed case. I don't know how Longines do it.
I'm not even a watch guy (the most expensive watch I own is a $100 Casio G-Shock!) but I find this very tempting!
An alternative for this watch would be Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 Tripple Date, which is surprisingly lower price on the secondary market. Just sayin' 😮
According to the instructions from Longines, the "danger zone" for this watch is 7:00PM to 6:00AM. Plus, the chronograph should not be running when adjusting the time or other complications. I have a Frederique Constant Perpetual Calendar that cost 3 times this watch (though that watch does correct for variations in month length and even leap year). This watch is an incredible bargain with all those complications for under $3,000USD. Great review, too!
To me Longines right now does best watches in terms of value for money. Would be great to see some reviews about their record collection, as I think it's a bit overlooked, despite it's probably most affordable chronometers out there. I just fell in love with record collection as well as with Legend Diver.
You get lots of goodies in a nicely size timepiece, from a storied brand, with a technically nice, in-house movement. Well done by Longines!
White and with a narrow bezel, it will look bigger than it's physical size.
This was my first 'real' watch... i cant agree more, the value for money here is just insane
same - I got it with a leather strap (which I believe looks better than bracelet). Very emotional about it, though I have "outgrown" it over the years
@@st0rmr1der7 what do you mean by "outgrown it"
Got this one with Roman numeral, blue numbers on white background and blue leather strap. Love it so much.
Great video and a very fair review. I’ve owned this watch for 10 years with the black face and totally agree it can be a little busy and even difficult to tell the time, this is however offset by the detail and complexity of the movement as described. Although this is not one of the big luxury brands, Longines has fantastic history and is a much more affordable option into the realm of watches.
I bought it recently and i tease my wife often that i get lost telling the time but i can say the day and the month very fast and accurate 😁
This was a target watch for me when I first saw it at a dealer showroom 3 or 4 years ago. They had only leather band models, and I only wear bracelets. I finally found a used model with bracelet in Tokyo at a used watch shop for $2000 US equivalence with box and papers in early 2020 (before covid shutdown). 2017 date, and dealer said he's had it on trade for over a year. It's been my travel watch, and was daily wear until a couple of months ago. I love the look. Main downside is that it can be hard to read the time at a glance when the hour or minute hand are overlapping the date hand. I have seen this watch new advertised for $2K on some websites in the recent past. Currently loses 1 minute every 3 days.
20 seconds a day is ... harsh. You should get that serviced.
With 20 sec per day I’d say there’s a big chance that it could be magnetized. You can either get a demagnetizer for USD 10 or take it to a shop
I bought this watch three years ago and it's fantastic. Love the moonphase and the fact that it has day, month and date - great for working if you need to know these quickly. I recently changed the strap to a Longines dark brown leather strap with light brown saddle stitching and I actually prefer it as it's still elegant but because the watch has 'more going on' and thicker, it's a lot more sporty and I now tend to wear it with more everyday outfits but not formal or evening suits or tuxedos. Also, it keeps pretty accurate time. It would be awesome if they could have the hands and large Arabic numbers with lumino for seeing the time at night, however that's just my wish - but I would definitely pay more for that feature. Fabulous watch all around though and I would definitely recommend it.
How blue are the steel hands? I hear they’re darker in person.
@@stocksxbondageyes they typically look darker but when the light hits them they are true to the lighter shade seen in the video
Picked up a AMZWATCH's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
This model is on my list to add to my collection soon. This same watch comes with two different versions of the movement depending on when it was manufactured. The newer models as Teddy is reviewing here has the L678.3 with the column wheel. Previous models come with a L678.2 which does not have the column wheel. So if a movement with a column wheel is important to you, make sure you check with version of the L678 movement the watch comes with.
*L687.5 (as can be seen through the caseback)
Longines just continues to impress! Thank you, Teddy, for showcasing Longines!
And,…I bought this watch, after buying a couple of Omegas..This Longines perceptual Chronograph is every bit as stout …it’s a lot of features to keep up with..I keep it on my wolf when I’m not wearing it. Feels great on my wrist. Glad I pulled the trigger and brought it home
I got this watch as an engagement gift from my fiancée, absolutely love it on the brown leather strap !
I have this watch since 2008, It is so beautiful. Every detail of the dial is just so fascinating. I cannot stop staring at it when I wear it. And yes, for the money you get incredible value. Bought with brown leather strap, with its original hidden clasp, I also wear it with a couple NATO straps in the summer. Inusual, but even more versatile! changes its style completely. Fully reccomended, for a piece of haute horlogerie! Teddy, keep up the great work, Cheers form Italy!! :). PS. Just looked at it. My movement is different from the one displayed here, it's the 687.2. And yes, agree, the crown is too painfully small!
LONGINES 687.2 is based on the valjoux 7751. Cheers. Nice watch!
@@geoffquickfall thanks Geoff! 👍🏻 Cheers, Giuseppe
Yes, I agree about the crown. I've read that the 42mm has a bigger crown. I wonder could it be swapped out?
@@torrolindsey3459 No it's just built differently. I own the 42 mil and it works just fine, easy to handle.
My wife and i are buying each other silver watches for our anniversary and I was leaning towards buying the Heritage classic sector dial one but now looking at this with blue hands and roman numerals. I would like to see both in person before buying so I guess we will see but either way Longiness has the best options out there for a great price point!
The dial feels a bit crowded, imo, the pointer date makes it crowded, maybe a sub-dial would make it cleaner
The dial is a bit crowded and busy (I like the idea of all the bells and whistles but the aesthetics are a bit off putting) but if you are looking for this style of watch it makes a lovely luxury entry point.
When non-watch people ask why would someone spend thousands on a watch. I show them this, explain the basic watch engineering and they all understand and appreciate the cost.
Surely not all understand. Morons abound. Their first and only argument is a $30 Casio does all the things and more, so why spend 100x that? 😢
Beautiful watch and the movement is fantastic. Just doesn't fit my wrist correctly. Wish the numbers were applied markers. Won't be on my wrist but I can see folks liking this.
I had one and sold it but then regretted it. Now I have been wanting to get another one soon. It’s not overpriced watch like other brands. It is reasonably priced considering the complications it has in movement.
I have this and also the Omega Speedmaster sapphire caseback. The entire dial and everything about it is FAR more beautiful than the Speedmaster hands down!
I've got this one in blue. The only minus in my book is that it has a TAC (tiny-ass crown). With a watch that requires so much use of the crown (unless you use a winder), it's a real pain in the ass.
Thank you, Teddy, for such a great video. I have been agonizing over my first TRUE luxury watch. I considered Hamilton, Tudor, Omega, but I happened across this very model at my local premium watch retailers and fell in love. I did a search for the model number and several videos came up. By far your video was the best, so complete and professional it has convinced me that this watch is for me. I hope to be wearing it by my birthday 2023.
Absolutely love Longines watches and this one is my favourite by far
For the number of complications on this watch it is surprisingly readable with the different fonts used as you say Teddy. Clearly it will not be as readable as a three hander but that is a reasonable price to pay for the included complications. I have seen one of these in the flesh at the AD and it does look very good. Great photography Teddy.
I've owned on since December 2019. I have a 6.75" wrist and it fits beautifully. It is crowded on the dial but it is the price you pay for complications, especially a triple date chrono.
@@DominusEstOK I have the three hand moon phase version, similar texture dial and Arabic numerals and very easy to read. It looks like a similar bracelet and have no complaints on that. I think I need to have another look at this watch given the wealth of complications that it offers. The base Valjoux movement is a well proven workhorse also proven with the column wheel in the old Omega Seamaster chronographs.
I have this watch and i absolutely LOVE it. Piece of advice, really check thoroughly that the time is not between 9pm and 3am before setting the date if you want to save an 800 euro repair!
Can you give me exact time where it's safe to set settings? I'm about to receive it in couple days. Thanks
@@tevzuss4386 the watch has 24 indicator, so you should avoid changing the date between 21h and 3h. However, an easy way is setting the hour and minute hands at 6: this way you can be sure you never change it between 9pm and 3am, no matter what!
@@GDM_GDM oh now I got it, thank you for clarification.
Just got one delivered today, pleasant surprise with the new movement
I am the happy owner of this LONGINES Master Collection. This watch is close to perfect . I only get one problem but due to my age (63 y.o.) . Even with my corrective glasses, i cannot see all the informations given by the watch. I need the day light or a very powerful light to read all . Anyway, it is a full pleasure to wear it every day. I wish to buy a REVERSO but today i cannot by a 15 000 $ watch. I still hope.
Beautiful watch, I got a vintage Speedmaster with that complications. Excellent video and keep the good work my friend!
@Teddy, lovey video as usual, but want to confirm, did you say it's the 40mm diameter your model with a 7.63 inches wrist size?, and the watch fills up his wrist?. Are you sure he wasnt wearing the 42mm version?. Please confirm, it will really help me out in better understand the dimensions of the watch on wrist.
My first and still most beloved quality watch. ✌️
Hi, Too busy of a Dial while driving, working, low light, Sunlight. Watch dials in my preference are Hamilton Khaki field or Rolex explorer type. Might be a watch for someone sitting at a desk all day with excellent eyesight.
Reminds me of the Omega Triple Date but larger and with equal class. 😊
Just became a huge fan of you Teddy! You and me wonderful make an amazing duo
Just got my l2.673 today, absolutely in love with it. How will I know the year of manufacture? Appreciate help in this . Much thanks
Omega made a similar watch based on the same Valjoux 7751. The Speedmaster MK40. It's probably one of the most complicated speedmasters ever built.
This watch has everything I love about watches.
Thank you for the video. i am a great fan of this watch, which I consider the one of the best that Longines has produced this century.
Great video, very accurate analysis. In my 4.5 years in the game as a watch collector and enthusiast, I collected a lot from amzwatch I was thinking I was able to get a blue SD but I'm not vip enough, but I'm not giving up. Hehe. Great video.
I was looking for a daily, it came down between this and the Baume Clifton Calendar Chronograph (same movement). I chose the Baume it wears better, and IMO has better finishing.
This is one beautiful watch. I`m torn between the Longine hour angle and this one as my next purchase. Oh the agony of choice.
I own a couple of the Seamaster Triple Calendars. Very useful, reliable, and sportier. I do wish it was a bigger dial like in the Longines. Same Valjoux, tried and true.
Longines, I was given a 5star admiral circa 1958 never been service, and immediately began to work. Beautiful mechanics. I’m sure this will not disappoint🪬 great work on your content🎉
Just bought it. Love it. Thank you for the video.
My wife got me this watch in 42mm as an engagement gift in 2014. The one major downer to it is that my model does not have the column wheel version of the movement.
I can get this watch for $2300 new right now through a military outlet should I pull the trigger?
I have it and it’s one of the watches that doesn’t feel boring, every time i look at it i find something new
a comparison between 40 and 42 would be interesting
From the 4:18 to 3:32 mark - isn’t the time at 10 when you are adjusting the day of the week? Isn’t that “bad” for it?
I bought this watch 3 years ago for precisely the same reason. It packed so much complication for the price of a Black Bay. The only down side for me is it has so much information on the dial, sometimes it’s hard to read for my old man eyes…
great video....I'm a big fan of Longines Master Collection....I like everything about this watch except the cut off printing of the hour markers....wish they made them a tad smaller or the sub-dials
Great video, I love that watch my biggest regret is that it was being offered to me at CHF1,000 and I didnt buy it, it was in great conditions, but one day not too far I will get my hand on one
I didn't think I needed a calendar chronograph. Great. Now I'm considering it. 🤷🏻♂️😂
This is the first video that I have seen that mentions having some juice in the tank for using the calanandar corrector
@Teddy Baldassarre, Another great video. How much maintenance would this watch require? Is it worth to own it with all the complications involved? Your thoughts are greatly appreciated, thank you.
I've always liked Longines. Don't know why. I've never owned one, but for some reason I just always get drawn in to the "click bait" when I see one on a thumbnail.lol
Great video I want this watch but everyone sales the 40mm and I would like the 42mm.
Great review as always.
Like others, not something I’d go out searching for; but now that I’ve seen it, and at the price, I could see adding it to the collection.
This watch has been on my radar for a long time now, but I just cant get past the two different fonts on the dial it just looks off to me. Id love this watch with the courier typeface font combined with the font they are using for the hour markers, I think that would look much better
The more complicated, the sooner something will misfire. It is impressive looking though and Longines is a class brand.
Hi dear Teddy, you are the best watch guide in you-verse ! I learn a lot from you, please compare this watch with quadruple retrograde sun and moon phase watch so that I decide which one to buy ? Also if calender on the latter is perpetual or not !
Thanks in advance.
If the review is not possible please answer my question.
Are there new iterations to change the polish parts to brush, make it thinner to 13.8mm, longer power reserve?
This such a beautiful and well built watch
I have a Maurice Lacroix Chronographe Phase de Lune which I purchased in 2018 which is exactly the same. I looked at this watch but in my opinion the ML looks much better - anthracite dial, guilloche finishing and rose gold accents - which is why I opted to purchase that instead of this Longines (plus I’ve had a bad experience with a Longines watch and it’s inferior build). Effectively both watches have the same ETA/Valjoux 7751 movement which incidentally Omega used in their now discontinued Speedmaster Triple Date watch - but both ML & Longines modified the 7751 adding moon phase. I love my ML. It Looks great and very good value considering all of the complications and features. Anyway - that’s my two pence worth 🤓.
I don't think so, this one is an exclusive modification for Longines. The ML has no column wheel, no silicon balance spring (so no anti-magnetism and shorter service time) less power reserve and bigger price tag, and I guess, but not sure, the ML doesn't come with a 5 year warranty. Longines is just unbeatable in this price range.
@@mommi1979 - I think so - the movement is the same - other than the fact Longines change some parts to give it different features - like you say adding silicon spring makes it anti-magnetic etc etc - but the core movement is the same in that is displays exactly what the ML does e.g. day, date, Chronograph etc etc - and it had a 5 yr service interval
@@visi5649 So what you are saying is that if two watch faces show the same information their respective movements are basically the same. lol
@@mommi1979 - No! What I am saying D D is that some watches have the same movement with a few minor part changes
Got the same one, but an Ernst Benz chronolunar, both Valjoux movement
You could set the 24 hour hand to a different time zone so then there is an additional gmt function
I have this watch on the leather strap. It's freaking amazing.
Great review Teddy. I'm waiting for a review of the Longines Hydroconquest Ceramic. I'm hoping for one for my birthday in December. (My wife is really good about bday gifts!)
Hello guys! Can you let the chronograph on this watch run continously? Somebody experience with that for a couple of years? Thanks for the responses! Regards, Olaf
I do like the Dial, altough there are other Variants that are less noisy, but i love the classy white Guilloche. But i cant stand this watch on a SS Bracelet, to me this Watch belongs to a good Leatherstrap, which changes the Character of the Watch a lot.
My heart is set on this one. My grandfather had a Longines and I am currently saving for this one. There is a black dial with Roman numerals that I enjoy but I’m not sure it’s the same movement in the 42mm. Maybe older.
Ended up purchasing this as my 1st watch. Any recommended alternative straps I should check out to pair with this?
I’m about to get the same one only black dial moon phase ! It’s insane how gorgeous these watches are. I’d say brown leather with deployant clasp u can’t go wrong
I just received this watch today- my first "Luxury" watch. An absolute thing of beauty! I went with the Brown Alligator Strap. And I got it at an incredible price... way below the mentioned MSRP and it is brand new.
Did you get the 40mm or 42mm ?
And what is your wrist size ?
I’m torn and don’t want to make a big purchase without knowing how it looks on my 7.5 in wrist
Thank you
@@mashn8328 I got the 40mm... but my wrist is 8" and I was able to clasp it shut using the very last opening on the strap, but way tight... I am sending it back as we speak.
I've kinda made up my mind that this is going to be my first luxury watch as well. If you don't mind, where did you buy the watch? I'm not 100% convinced about paying couple thousand dollars to jomashop where the price makes it a good deal but doubtful about after sales support.
@@anirudh64 Jomashop
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’ve noticed that this model seems to have a different dial design depending on which color watch face. White with numbers, Black with Roman numerals, and Blue with just markings.
Why are they not consistent with number position? Look at the dates... 7, 8, 9 and also date 23 and 24. I think they are not as OCD as I am. Same for 24hour... numbers 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 are up-side-down. Inner bezel(minute track) numbers are OK. I really wish to buy this kind of watch, but there is no vendor who makes it the way I accept it. Perfect size though.
Can you talk a little about the sea-gull ST1908 caliber, it’s an insane movement based on the ST1901 from the 1963 sea-gull military watch you reviewed earlier, the st1908 caliber has a mechanical chronograph, a true moon phase, and a date complication… for less than 200$
Hope they will make this model in salmon dial with brown leather one day 😅
Mine was delivered today. Definitely bang for the buck.
Love this watch. Seen It with a brown leather strap. Looks better with that.
It is a watch with a complex movement dressed with an elegant dial
Nice, I like the Blue dial version.
I have the 42 mm version in blue with a blue leather strap, I love it and it’s a lot easier to read than my 39mm speedmaster triple date.
I think i found my next time piece ...Thank You Teddy !
Currently servicing one 🙂 great watches
This dude and no longer fat fredrico are the two best watch gents on U tuuube hands down
Beautiful watch, and great value for money. However, my money will be going for bicompax version this December (hopefully). Thank you for another exquisite review.
got mine about a year and change ago and I love it :)
Absolutely gorgeous watch. Thank you for going into such detail and sharing. I’m definitely moving into wanting more complications in a watch and this one is stunning. Cheers!
I bought a Longines Master with date and Moonphase. This one was too clunky, it's a pitty.
I would have considered this one if it would not have the chrono, it overloads it for me...
Cool feature would be to replace the 24 hour with an am/pm indicator (sun/moon), like on the retrograde.
Longines is also nice for being the cheapest brand with a crocodile strap, blued hands, the luxury features.
Why buy omega when you could buy this Beauty for half of the price ? longines is a bit underrated, this watch is one of the most beautiful watches that money can buy, I'm going for it !
Interesting modification to column wheel operation. Have a Sinn 6026 ST with the standard 7751 movement or not actual standard- a nicely decorated one. More practical, higher water resistance.
The best collectble modern/vintage watch
You know those movies where the hero says "one last job and I retire?"
@@89426 yes 😂
