Heritage Diver

Based on the model designed in the 70s by Longines, the 2014 version of the Heritage Diver comes in two automatic versions: one with three hands and the other with a chronograph. Both come in a 43mm cushion-shaped case with a brushed steel top and polished sides. The crown, bezel and case back have been screwed down for improved water resistance. Both models have a black face punctuated by indices and hands coated in luminescent material and two silver-tone counters (30 minutes at 9 o’ clock and 60 minutes at 3 o’ clock) on the chronograph model. The date display is at 6 or 3 o’ clock depending on the model. The central seconds is in red on the chronograph whilst red features on the minute hand on the other model. Both pieces have an interior chapter ring numbered 0-60 and a minute track marked out by splashes of red. The crown at 2 o’ clock on the case enables it to turn both ways. Price: 3’200 CHF (chronograph) – 2’100 CHF (three hands)
