Longines Pulsometer Chronograph

Me liking this watch....

Seems like a great watch. Don't love the date window or the display back, but at that price, I can live with it.

What say you?

I remember posting about that one when it was announced.

I'm loving it too. I think the pricing will be closer to $2500 by the time a Jomashop type place puts it online. I haven't seen it for sale anywhere yet though...

I'll be anxious to see it, and will be very tempted to snag this one!

I like it even more after reading the review.

I understand why they didn't, but I do wish they would have done some minimal lume somewhere on the hour hands. Any idea when this one comes out?

Great looking watch, I think the whole mono-pusher lineup from Longines are a just so unique

Longines has game... This watch and a handful of others are standouts.
I wish they'd rethink the other 90% of their lineup.

Ha! True John. I would really like to add a manual wind chrono one of these days and the 5170g (white dial) is one of the tops on that list.

Its neither here nor there IMO. A clearly vintage inspired mono pusher chrono with an automatic movement and date window? Longines should do this right, dig up the old blue prints for the 30CH movement and go to work.

very nice looking!

agree about the date window although it really doesn't look bad… take out the date window and add a manual movement and it would be a super hot piece

I like it. But I will never get to my grail at my current pace of buying middle priced pieces like this. Must resist temptation.


Have Longines AD by the house. Must stay out.
