I like the look of them. The 16mm lug width appeals to me; I quite like a bigger watch in a small strap. Used to wear my CWC diver on an 18mm. I believe the more expensive version is thicker or...
BB54 for me. Slim, light, adjustable clasp, hides under sleeve, quietly awesome.

My pleasure chaps, Gunter converted a nice vintage chrono of mine from fixed bars to pins and it was a perfect job.
Whereabouts are you? I’ve had this done by MyTime Watches in York; I’ve got another watch which I’ll have converted from fixed bars to drilled lugs and he’s advised me that he’ll be doing some...
Thanks for those I’ll check them out
Just got this back from a full service. Does that count as a new arrival? It was gone three months so it feels like it!!

Hi there
I have a vintage watch with fixed bars which I usually pair with Hirsch Toronto straps (open ended). However because the gap between the strap bar and the case is quite tight, the strap...
Thanks guys, really useful. I have some reading to do.
Thanks guys
Is it just me or do they all seem quite big, given their function?
So it's basically like an Android phone - does that mean if I install the Apple Music app, I can basically leave...
Prompted by the item for sale in SC currently. I'm afraid I'm not in a position to buy at the moment but I am interested in the idea. I use Hi-Res certified headphones (Yamaha LH700A) and listen to...
Got this recently from a member. Really happy with it, super comfortable and more subtle than the 58 I had before.

I got a BB54 from a member here yesterday. For context, my other watches are a vintage Longines 'coin edge' at 35mm, and a Legend Diver at 42mm. I previously had the BB58 but sold it due to it never...
Looking forward to trying one. I’ve had the ND reissue since it came out and I love it. However better lume and the better movement are quite tempting. I find the 42mm a great size and super...
Sounds like it crossed yours!

Continuing this nice clean design trend

Nice looking watch. Yes, thanks - I get that coin edge doesn't necessarily fit but many are referred to as that. I guess it refers to the flat outer case around the crystal which is slightly unusual.
So pleased I bought this! It feels amazing and the size is fantastic, the idea of it being ‘too small’ has evaporated completely and I’m realising that this size is comfortable, legible and really...
Sorry to post it in another thread, but I'm sure everyone does that when they're delighted with a new arrival!

I now have the leather strap attached (open ended type, glued). It looks amazing and as someone said above, I can hardly feel I'm wearing it.
The size has been a revelation to me - not once has it...

Yeah I know what you mean. In fact Longines did reissue this style dial (a slightly earlier version with the numbers rotated which doesn’t look as good IMO). I’ve only got the sellers word for it but...
Thanks for the comments on my Longines, I’ve admired this dial for a long time but finally managed to find a really good one. I’ve written to Longines to request an archive extract. I think it’s from...
My new Longines, my favourite dial design ever, I think!!
