Thanks gents, I still can't quite believe it-- this was a very cheap punt-- and it turns out to be probably one of my most beautiful watches. This sets a very bad precedent, it might give me a taste for random hits at unplanned non-Longines watches on the web...
While I sit as patiently as possible for my first Omega to arrive from Australia (via late December purchase here - shout out to Guilty Boomerang), I continue to enjoy my Tudor while getting an outstanding education here and enjoying the comraderie on this fantastic site!
