Hi fellow Longines fans

To me the Longines Avigation BigEye is the most beautiful heritage model by Longines since the Legend Diver.

I hope this can become a sticky - everything about the beautiful BigEye :-!

Im tempted to get it now, but I have couple of other watches in the pipe line; but I would say the Blackbay 58 is a great competitor, as a "vintage" inspired watch.

I just got mine. I'm really enjoying it. It's a lot of watch for the money. It's classic and understated and has vintage charm. To the untrained eye or non-WIS, it doesn't stand out or pop so much. You looking down at the dial is where the magic is. The included strap fits the watch but the Bigeye is so versatile it can give you a bunch of different looks with a quick strap change.

I don't think Longines has released many of these and I wouldn't be surprised if they stop making them. When they come up used on Watch Recon you can get them for well under retail. I recommend grabbing one now if you want a clean one.
