Very nice, I like it but too dressy for me.

It's a nice looking watch, but there are a lot of similar looking pieces that don't have the Longines name on them - I know watch snobbery.

I wouldn't mind something with a retrograde complication or two, but I also struggle a little with overly dressy watches.

Same answer for me I'm afraid - nice watch, but there are many others that offer a similar look with a better name.

I ratehr like dressy watches, and have always wanted a Retrograde complication, so I really like that watch. The only problem I must admit is the name. Just like the Seiko Marinemaster, I associate Longines with mass produced and poorly mass made watches. If it had a Jager tag on it I would be all over it. I am contemplating overcoming that phobia and just getting teh watch.

That will definately have to wait though before I make a decision, God knows was tempting lovelies will be announced in March!!!
