S2 E9: Longines deep-dive, insta shots of the month + watches we are lusting after
Episode 9
Saturday, 3 January, 2026
Hi Watch Fam,Thank you for keeping time with us.Watch News is back! We love a good Piaget so new Andy Warhol ‘Collage’ has caught our eye. It’s perfect in a completely whacky way - stone dials to the max! We also stumble across Arsene Lippens and their fun fabric dial do check these out. And finally the watch both Tim and Anna from Chrono_Girl_Life have in their collections Oris Big Crown Pointer Date, but this time with a twist in ‘Autumn Orange’ (2mins 11 seconds)Watches we are lusting after - Tim is surprisingly lusting after a neo-vintage Rolex a 1990s Oyster Perpetual 34mm ref. 15210 with its machine turned bezel and clean dial either as a sunray deep blue or in a more matte black. Presents good value into the entry-level Rolex ownership. (7mins 03 seconds)Watch shots of the month - big shout outs to three excellent insta shots: Corum Watches and its nest of peacock dial watches; Arrow of Time - Le Roy & Cie 50s rose gold case with a linen dial with these stunning indented indices; and finally Goldfinger Vintage’s - Girard Perregeaux 70s dress watch in white gold but what stands out is the case and dial finishing. It’s a clous de paris guilloche on both the case and blue/green dial. (08mins 31 seconds)Deep dive on Longines - we highlight Vintage Longines himself and his prized 1942 blue dialed perfection of a watch - 18ct gold and stamped from Egypt with w reference of 4687.The Majetek used by WWII Czech pilots as well as the Type A7 with this 45-degree design and big onion style crown.We also pick out other vintage Longines’ from The Watcham with scarab gold lugs and exquisite pinky/salmon dial; watch seller Goldammer and another salmon dial and Tim’s favourite watch hands - pontife style; and finally SpaceTime.VintageWatch’s quirky little number - a circular case but attached to a rectangular outer case like a Tank protecting this incredible jade stone dial. This little piece would turn heads. (Starts from 11mins 33 seconds)You can now watch us on Youtube and on video via Spotify!
