Sweet watch. Yes, I'm a vintage and new Longines fan. They are doing some exceptionally innovative things, moving horology forward. I thought this was interesting that they have developed their own chronograph column wheel movement. I only know of three in production, Zenith El Primero, Omega ETA 3303/3313, and Longines L688.2. That is exciting. http://thewatchlounge.com/classic-an...l-chronograph/
