I grabbed one. Will post pix when it lands, though that may take a while, since we're away for a long stretch (finally).
Looking forward to it! Safe travels and congrats!

Thanks! Have been planning and putting this off for ages; now leaving one day before this Longines arrives via FedEx....

Grabbed this pic from the web of the movement -- more nicely finished than I'd assumed.

Well, I'll get the ball rolling by pointing out that they completely failed to use the "Calatrava" description, which is both shocking, and a huge disappointment. 😁
Reading this thread again— what’s also incredible is that they cannot even call their skin diver “Nautilus” which was the actual name of the watch back then; presumably because someone else had the good idea to register it in the meantime. 😉
So the heritage version of the Longines Nautilus diver is now being sold as “skin diver”.
Oops. 🙄
