First purchase of the new year

Post by Goose383 »

Evening all,

This is a bit delayed as I've had it a few weeks now, but here's my first purchase for the new year.... I had been hovering over a Steinhart Ocean DLC and even had it in my basket, but couldn't quite complete the purchase..... the reason, there was one watch quietly sitting on the FS section on here for a while and I just couldn't get it out of my head, I'd check every couple of days to see if some one had snapped it up, but no, then after 2 weeks I finally decided that if I was checking so often, then I would have to scratch the itch and buy it...... and I'm glad I did... currently its getting all my wrist time for work :D

A very big thank you to It'sAliveJim for the sale......

Congrats on the purchase!

I've often admired the LLD in shop windows, and Longines more generally.

Looks good on that strap too.

Congrats Goose, the Legend diver is a very elegant watch and most photo,s do not do it justice. The super-compressor case hugs the wrist and the high domed sapphire is just stunning.
