Help: Longines Legend Diver Replica

[enyong112]

Hello Guys,
I don't know if this is the place to post this thread. If not, mod feel free to move it. I somewhat like the watch but not that much to buy a gen, so I'm thinking of just getting a replica. so here my question...
Is there one? Where can I get one?

Best,

Enyong

Looking through the trusted dealers, I don't see any Longines Legend.
Seems that it isn't available as a rep.
It looks like the only Longines divers watches that are available are the Hydroconquest and this one ...

Thanks for the reply meta4... I did try googling it... some sites have it... but im unsure of those sites... maybe scam sites... Maybe others can chime in?

Nope, this watch is not available as a rep. However, I strongly suggest you getting the genuine. An awesome watch with an awesome packaging:

Most of the sites you'll find on the web are scams - there are hundreds of them.
Some will have pics of many genuine watches that have not been replicated at all.

Ok, thanks.... just a beautiful watch... too bad or good no replica has been made... the genuine is just a bit steep for my pockets...

As others have noted, there's no rep version of the LLD. In fact, the only twin-crown Compressor reps out there are some pretty terrible JLCs.

I'm hoping to get the gen of the Longines very soon. Unfortunately, the original No-Date version is hard to find in Asia, and I'm not too crazy about the looks of the Diver Date.

Hey, check out the Hour Glass. I think they still have a piece left. Also in Longines Boutique in Marina Square and Wisma Atria, if you are visiting Singapore that is

I would rather have it with date.

Thanks for the replies guys... I'm thinking of just getting the Breitling Super Ocean replica, it somewhat resembles the LLD in my eyes...

Thanks for the Longines tips for Singapore. As it turned out, the Longines AD sold their last LLD (Date) the day before I got there. The only places that carried the Diver were two shops at Lucky Plaza. Both were the Date versions.

Thankfully, I was able to get a No-Date in very good condition from someone at SG-ROC. I'm loving it!

Did all you Longines fans catch the close of this vintage diver auction? Over $5000!

Saw that, and knew I needn't bother bid! I love the lightly toasted dial, and the tangerine-colored tritium.

About a month ago, there was a 36mm Bulova Compressor on eBay, which I thought I could snag for a few hundred dollars. It sold for almost $1,500!

Compressors are really hot right now! I just received this Enicar Super-Dive yesterday. The price was pretty high, but I think it will continue to appreciate:

avitt, that's an amazing Sherpa, and it looks almost new in the photos. Congratulations!

If there was one thing I could change with my LLD, it would be the shallow-dome sapphire crystal. Once I get past the two-year warranty period, I'm swapping it with something more like yours.

Thanks LHOOQ! It's really in exceptional condition, for a 40+ year old sports watch:

The acrylic crystal on this thing really is a top hat!
