Based on one of the first Longines diving watches, the Longines Super-Compressor launched in 1959, the Longines Legend Diver watch debuted in 2007 and was warmly welcomed by many fans. In addition to the classic 42mm model, Longines has added three 36mm models to appeal to both ladies and gentlemen. Each new timepiece features a box-shaped sapphire crystal, two screw-down crowns and a screw-down case back to ensure water resistance to pressures up to 30 ATM (approximately 300 meters/1,000 feet).
Their shaded dial features luminous hands, hour markers dotted with luminous squares and Arabic numerals, and Super-LumiNova rectangles enhance legibility. The two-way internal rotating diving bezel is started and stopped by the crown at 2 o'clock, allowing the wearer to determine the remaining dive time.
