16k....on a rubber strap. I probably don't want to know how much on a bracelet.

Doesn't matter for me, anyway. That's more than I've spent on most of my cars.
It'd be a standard sapphire Moonwatch for me.

I forwarded it to my daughter. She sent me a laugh emoji.

I am glad I was patient. I managed to scoop one of these up for quite a bit less than their original list price.

I believe the modern column wheel movement in it is quite similar to what is in my Omega Seamaster Professional Chronograph. If it is the watch should have exquisite quality and timekeeping along with vintage 60’s aesthetic which I adore.

Longines Heritage Diver 1967.

Article on this gorgeous red and black diver chrono

That is gorgeous!

Very nice, stick. One of the few red trimmed watches I've quite liked.

Hello Longines! First impression is VERY positive. I fucking love this watch. I’ve always wanted to add a splash of red to my collection but hadn’t found the right watch until today.

300m WR? check
Rotating bezel? Check
Exquisite movement? Check
Aesthetics on point? Check

This one is a serious contender for heavy rotation/ daily watch.

Maybe it was a good thing I passed on that hydroconquest…..

Ohh. That is gorgeous.

That is one nice looking watch!!

I need to add to my previous comment...that it's gorgeous, that I love the contrast of the red, black and white...and of course silver color. It pops and keeps your eyes engaged.

Zee Germans sure have a way with watches. No it’s not mine but I wish it was. What a beauty!

Notice the moisture wicking capsule at 6 o’clock? Innovative stuff like this is why I am drawn to the utilitarian tool watches of Sinn.




German U-boat steel too! What a cool watch.

I think the circle with the triangle logo on the back means it’s hardened steel or something like that.

WOTD

Jomashop has some smokin deals on Glycine

^^And for SF members that don’t like the high cost of watches:

Something with the bling without the unnecessary cost of quality.

Z06, that is actually a superb watch for the money. My son has one he has thoroughly abused and it keeps on ticking.


Now that other Invicta…..ehh…..

Aaahhh…
If it’s not my buddy, my pal, my enabler:
Mr Stickman…

Reading your posts and seeing your pictures in the other Watch thread-

Talk me out of that Tudor Pelagos LHD.
Tell me all the reasons I shouldn’t get one and how shitty they are.

I can’t do that. It really is in my opinion the perfect watch. It’s looks, build quality, comfort on the wrist and build material are all superior to everything else including offerings from their parent company.

Titanium spoils you, a Tudor LHD makes it damn hard to want other watches.



But life goes on and eventually other watches catch your eye. . I am not sure if I like the looks of a NATO strap on my Longines Heritage Diver 1967 but it is quite comfy on a strap.

I have a Titanium Helm that spends a lot of time on my wrist. So I get the allure of titanium.
I've been kicking around the idea of the Pelagos for a while now, and it's going to happen soon.
I like the 2026 Pelagos! That blue lume and accent is sharp.
But something about the LHD! I'm not a leftie, and it's not like I need a left handed watch... I just dig the little differences that the Pelagos has to offer.

Every Pelagos LHD is also individually numbered in a big engraving on the back. This is the only watch in the Pelagos line to do this. All of the others are just blank in the center of the case back. I think it is because Tudor realized this is a special watch and wanted to do something unique for it.

My opinion of course but I truly do believe it is the one watch I am keeping if I can only keep one from my collection. (And I own a few watches)

The Omega Seamaster is cool too but to me the Pelagos is just special.

Whenever I leave the house for a vacation or neat trip somewhere two watches always accompany me. My trusty Seiko PADI Turtle and my Tudor Pelagos LHD. Those two watches have been all over the Caribbean and Europe.
