    Hi guys!

    Just reaching out to ask for you opinions on the following piece. Have found it listed for sale but have not been able to find any information about it online. Can anyone identify this model and comment on the value of the asking price?

    Seller is asking AUD$1000 for the watch with original steel band and additional leather, original box and papers, serviced December last year.

    Does this seem like a good deal and a genuine Longines to you guys?

    This would be my first Longines, so I’m not quite sure what to look for in a genuine article and a good deal.

    Cheers!

    I think the watch look good, and asking price is fair.

    But I`m really no fan of these huge watches with valjoux 775X movements:)

    I dont think this model is subject for much faking and franking. If there is a warranty with the recent service you should be ok. Just check the chronograph
    functions are operating correctly etc.
