    That's a beauty. Hard to tell from the wrist shot, but what size is it? Cheers.
    Edit. Mr. Google says the 302 is 35mm, so guessing yours is about the same?

    Well, I cheated. I have one myself. ;) A few years back I voiced my opinion that it was the best value of all 30L watches. Now...... well, not so much after that. ::facepalm2::

    I'm surprised I don't also have a 30L example from @ulackfocus ; I think I have nearly every other caliber Longines from him :D :thumbsup:...

    I have to move a few more watches because I don't want any fellow amateur outselling me. Modest Proposal, MSNWatch, and martux seem to be my heaviest competition - and all their screen names start with "M" as in Money. Coincidence? Hmmmmmm.......

    Hahaha! I don't think I've ever offered a 30L for sale. I was holding out for a rose gold Flagship to represent that caliber, but there's no way I could pass on the 8888 once I saw how crisp the facets are.

    Beautiful watch @Hijak ... Longines is still very underappreciated in the watch world...Everybody seems to go for those flashy Omegas.. :rolleyes:
