Faux patina aside, what an attractive dial! Leaned towards 'want'!
and i would rather have that original all day long over the reissue. of course, that's probably not an option.
It's beautiful. Really well done.
It was also chosen for the Official 2019 Collectors Day meeting "awarded" or gifted to 18 people by Walter Von Kanel CEO of Longines.
John Goldberger was awarded one.
Wow, that wrist-shot is spectacular haha. I wonder if John Goldberger ever wears his.
The watch is bigger than the original 6B/159. It's waterproof, it's automatic, stainless steel, has the diamond crown, mineral or sapphire glass, and it looks like a dress watch when worn to work.
Also unlike some of the attempts at heritage, it's not weird looking with a date window or modernised oversized case. It's a nice everday watch that happens to look like a 6B/159.
