Longines Avigation Type A-7 Watch
Allow us to introduce the Longines Avigation Type A-7, a new monopusher chronograph with an offset dial design meant to recall Longines' rich history in aviation watches. This new chronograph has been released as a modern interpretation of a design from the 1930's that carried the US Army designation of "Type A-7" suggesting it has been specifically created with Army pilots in mind.The Type A-7 employs a 47mm stainless steel case that allows for a large and legible dial design that allowed pilots to easily and quickly check the time or chronograph. Additionally, the Type A-7 features an over sized crown and integrated monopusher chronograph control which means the 30 minute chronograph is simple to use (much like a stop watch) and the crown and pusher system can easily be used even when a pilot is wearing gloves.Inside, the Type A-7 features the same L788.2 column wheel chronograph movement used within the L27764213 Monopusher Chronograph we saw in Paris earlier this year (seen below).

Rolex Day Date - ever come without hidden clasp?
Hello!I am looking at a Rolex Day Date that's got a barked finish. The only concern I have is that the clasp is not concealed like most Day Dates I've seen. Is this normal or a red flag that the bracelet is not original?

When was the platinum dial YM discountinued?
Just curious.....

Papers or No papers how important
So. Thinking of buying my second Rolex. This is a shop and the watch looks very good.Only issue is the original paper certificate is missing.How important is the original certificate to you. Its a good deal probably 700 less than with papers.Would you buy one and be happy.?
