Longines GrandeVitesse Chronograph 24h
The Chronograph 24h is the newest addition to Longines’ GrandeVitesse line. The 44mm case is fitted with the a modified version of the automatic ETA Valjoux 7754 movement made exclusively for Longines, dubbed caliber L686. As you might guess from its name, this new watch incorporates chronograph and second time zone. The movement, visible through a sapphire display back, runs in 25 jewels at at 28,800 vph with a power reserve of 46 hours. The chronograph features center seconds, a 30 minute counter at 12 o’clock and a 12 hour counter at 6 o’clock. Continuous small seconds are located at 9 o’clock. The second time zone is indicated via a black 24 hour hand with a red triangular tip. The case features a double tachymeter on the bezel, graduated in kph and MPH, that can be used for measuring ground-speeds up to Mach 2. The crown and push-pieces have a non-slip texture. The crystal is sapphire with an anti-reflective coating, and the case is water resistant to 50 me

Help with winder settings for a couple of AP !
Just got a great 2.7 Wolf watch winder where I can customize the turns per day and direction. I'm trying to 'dial' in the most appropriate settings and any help would be appreciated.I have the 44mm Novelty 26400RO with the 3126 cal. movement and a Rubber Clad 25940SK with the 2326 movement.I've had the novelty on a 350 turns per day bi-directional setting (so 700 per day) and it seems to be ok. However the rubber clad ran out of power reserve and stopped after a few days on the same settings. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated ! TIA !

Forgive me if you already saw that fruit
But with this light on the platinum, I can't resist And the main reason of this forum is to share so:Hope you will have pleasure with those pics

New Explorer 1 vs 16570
As the title implies, I am considering my first Rolex. My options are the Explorer 1 (lumed 39MM) or the 5-digit ExplorerII. Prices are relatively close.My wife likes the New Explorer. She feels it is dressier. I like the older Explorer2s. In theory, it's a gift from her. Black EXP2 maybe dressier than white with dark dial and gold hands and surrounds?

My first Rolex - Submariner Date 116610LN
Greetings. I just got into watch collecting this past year and finally pulled the trigger on the Sub Date this past weekend. It's the best all-around watch. I love the bracelet is all brushed so it will wear well with fewer scratches than polished links, etc. I'm afraid I won't want to wear my other watches for some time now. :) And I got a small discount at an area AD where others didn't even have in stock, so I feel confident in my purchase. Happy to be a part of the Rolex family now! :)
