Saw QC pics of this up by supermirrors, looks pretty good. Don't really see any major flaws in my passthrough.

Rep:

Gen:

I was told it should be $279

 

[mclarendude]

I need one, asap.

What movement, if known?

 

[mclarendude]

As a pilot, I have never heard of the word avigation... which literally means navigation of aircraft...

I thought it was a typo.

Typical 7750, this is just the 3-6-9 config. Real movement has a column wheel chrono (L688.2).

Looks pretty spot on. Any idea which factory?

Not everyone is a fan of vintage reissues but I love the way that Longines does theirs.

No clue, can't even find a listing on any TD or other info either besides sead's QC pics. There are non-TD sites that wrote ZF but I'm not sure how true that is.

It's just model name, like tag Heuer Autavia.

I know that. I had never heard the word Avigation before and I’m a pilot.

Navigation for aviation??? New word very nice invention

Longines was combin Aviation and Navigation word into Avigation like Aviation and Automotive into Autavia from Heuer.

I just order it.

Keep us updated. I had a pilot friend come in and show me his gen one. Makes me want this even more.

I love this piece too. Even buy the gen still worth the money under $2000 usd.
The reason why I don't buy it because the ugly design case back, feel so cheap. So keep me step back.

​​​​​​But I keep wondering the OP post qc pic maybe it's gen?

I don't think gens come with those stickers or blue stickers on the crown+chrono pushers. The only tells I can see are minor differences on the caseback engraving (serial is deeper than the gen, typical rep quality as it's not as clean). The QC pics were from sead's album, I really doubt he picked up a gen.

Anyhow, I think this is super rep territory.

Sure, but still waiting the QC pics..

 

[Dominus77]

Anyone has any info why this is not listed on any of the TDs yet? Waiting eagerly for this

Got QC, and not happy with that, hands are dirty, chronographic minute hand are not straight.
