Its beautiful. May I ask how much?

Sure, I got it for £950 in mint condition with its papers (no box). Picked up a new Hirsch strap for £30, kept the Longines clasp and I was on to a winner!

That's a really good price for what you get. Longines offers such good value. This one gives me a Portugieser vibe.

Great watch! I've had mine since 2015 and it's still one of the most beautiful watches I've ever seen. Wear it in good health!

Long time lurker, first time poster.
This is my Longines Master Collection (L2.669.4.78.3) purchased second hand from a dealer in March 2018.
I saw this first roughly 6 months before and knew it was the watch for me. I particularly love chronos, the bonuses here for me are the varying dial textures and the blued hands (very difficult to capture properly in a photo, but when the light catches them it's stunning).
This is my first Swiss automatic, having lusted after one for a long time. When I first saw it I thought that the price was unattainable for me. However having passed some professional exams and saving up for a few months with this as the end goal, I set to it. I then came across this at a dealer in mint condition and pulled the trigger.
I still find it catching my eye on the tube and staring at it, and I'm delighted with the purchase 9 months on. It's starting to pick up a few minor knocks but that doesn't phase me, it's a watch to be worn and I have no intention of selling on.
I've definitely caught the bug and have a current wishlist:
1960s gold omega seamster (probably from kabaclyde at some point) Omega speedy pro JLC MUT Moon
Congratulations. These are great bang per buck. What professional exams out of interest?
Recently finished my ACA, so chartered accountancy. This was a nice reward for the hard work!
Will serve you well for years to come.
