    Hello all,

    I went across a magnificent Longines during a watch design exposition in Lausanne.
    I kindly request your help to identify the following:

    Thanks Maganotor for the info.
    Not so fan of the date window in this modern reedition, just like what Longines did with the Legend Diver date.

    Yes - I don't think the date wheel adds anything aesthetically to the watch. I am sure I have seen a chrono re-issue of this too? I will have a look
