Oh what a difference a strap makes. Last year, when Longines chose to pair their mighty?Legend Diver a watch the Vice President calls the most successful heritage model ever with a Milanese loop bracelet, they succeeded in creating a third?wave of interest in the model that made its way to?the door of Time+Tide in Melbourne. The first wave was at its launch in 2007, auspiciously without date. The second wave was the date version that inevitably?followed, and the third was the 2017 release with Milanese bracelet. With its heavy, supple bracelet in polished steel making the polished case shine even brighter, we looked at the watch with completely fresh eyes. Now, like eager surfers, we await even more sets of surprising and surging waves from the winged hourglass brand, which has chosen this versatile all-rounder as the shape of many new things to come.
