This watch is a visual masterpiece. That inky black dial is so captivating. The choice for minimal dial text shows awesome restraint given that this is a 300m WR, COSC certified watch. The beads of rice bracelet also matches perfectly.
Man, your editing and videography skills just keeps reaching new heights with each video! Absolutely fantastic review! Oh and I already adored the older Legend Diver but this 39mm upgrade just completely elevated the model for me.
They’re my favourite brand, incredible style, history, affordability… Just wish they’d released more colours in this size. Love the beige colour in the other sizes. That said, I only want one dive watch, and if I’m only gonna have one I feel like it needs to be an external bezel one. Gotta have that clicky thing, just for fun! But if I was gonna get a second one, this’d be it…
@@VermiKelloYes but the overall fit and finish has also increased significantly.Take zulu time for example. Yes it is much more expensive than a regular longines however its finishing is freaking fantastic. İf the quality keeps rising ı am all for the price increases no problem .
@@burakcangur3407In addition, you don’t have to pay retail. I got 25% of my Zulu time and like you said the finishing made me feel like the purchase was a steal!
I love Longines. Had an automatic Hydroconquest 41mm for many years, also own the 40mm Spirit. What they did in the past few years and recently, with the new Conquest 41mm for example, is just fantastic. It's really a step up in terms of overall finishing and attention to details. I always wanted the Legend Diver but it was just too big for me as well. On the 39mm size, case, dial, bracelet, all looks just so good, more refined and balanced. Great review, keep it up!
It’s one of my favorite watches on the market irrespective of any price range. It’s beautiful and can be worn with a tuxedo or a sport coat to a nightclub restaurant for cocktails and live music. It’s downright glamorous yet it’s also a dive watch and it’s timeless.
Thanks for the review and comparison to other models in the range - very helpful. This one is my next purchase and i'm currently looking for a nice deal.
I see what you mean. This Longines Legend Diver 39mm could very easily be a one watch collection. As beautiful as it is, it concerns me that it would be easily scratched. If it were a tool watch I wouldn’t care, but this certainly is anything but a tool watch. Excellent video and review as always! 🥃
Thank you for this great review of and introduction to this lovely watch. It certainly looks amazing, and your opinion certainly boosts its status. Thank you for your time and efforts to share this with us all.
Okay Mr.Brave. Since selling my 42 mm legend diver a few years ago 😢 I have been very sad. I am retired now, and looking for a watch to end it all.( watch buying that is). I have watched this review on the new 39 mm version many times and that is what I’m going to get in 2024. My bank account will curse you, but not me. Cheers🎉❤
hahah! It is a very nice watch and I wish you to get the wisest decision and enjoy it! :) btw, next year, potentially the prices will decrease a bit. Cheers!
A Legend Diver has been on and off my list for a while. Why? Well I was never a huge fan of the date. This new (old) rerelease has given me an itch that I might just scratch at some point. A great video very well presented so many thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much! I was looking for the first reissue, the dateless one. But it's pretty hard to find for a good deal. In exchance, this one came up just right :)
Congratulations - wear it well! A fabulous release, Longines are releasing some great watches, but this really is special. A very successful reworking of the LD with proper diving ISO specs. And as you say, one of very few watches that can really 'do it all.'
I really enjoy your video, I own both the black and blue dial versions on bracelet, I couldn't decide on the colors but it I feel the black dial pops a bit more but honestly both are great divers. I put my on Tropical straps to match the dials respectfully and I'm happy with how they look. The blue arrived this past weekend as I had to special order it from my AD as he sold out a few pretty quick. Excellent size and design meeting ISO764 and ISO6425 plus Chronometer officially Certified "cased" you can't beat that, finally I do love the bracelet hitch I will put one back on but haven't decided yet.
This is truly a “Legend”. 39 mm is right on the sweet spot, I totally agree. I love that they didn’t add the date in this smaller version. 🙂👌🏼 By the way, at the time of viewing this review, you’re creeping up on 50K Subs!! Congratulations! 👏🏼😄
FC is amazing as well, I am a fan of the Highlife platform! They offers amazing value for the money. Thank you very much, have a great weekend as well! :)
Just when I thought the Tudor Black Bay 54 at 37mm was the next watch purchase, along came the Longines Legend Diver 39. Even prior to this release, the Legend Diver has this degree of refinement that truly makes it not just a proper dive watch, but one that can be used for any occasion. And at 39mm, finally a more suitable size for me. Thanks for this post (and all of your other videos). You hit the nail on the head with your review and you just may have convinced me to go ahead and buy my second Longines dive watch.😁
Same for me, I was thinking to put some side by side shots with my 54. they have a few similarities, both being smaller versions of bigger popular divers! :) Thank you very much! If you have the chance, try them both and then decide which one is the best for your wrist :)
@@BraveBeaters Funny - they are indeed smaller versions of their watch brethren. That's just the thing with the Legend Diver - it is a diver and then some. If I get the BB54, it will be "just like" my HydroConquest - both are unmistakably dive watches. The LD can pass for a dress watch IMHO. Its versatility is what's made me reconsider.
If you have not seen the BB54 in the flesh, you need to see it. What an absolute stunner. I bought one with no regrets. I like this new Longines, man it is absolutely knock out gorgeous and just imagine it on a leather calf skin! The only thing that puts me off is the superior functionality of the T-Fitz ease of using an external bezel and I know I'll find the black and white a little monotone, so the brass wins too.
You picked some great strap combo's nonetheless! Great close-ups on the dial. You could use the Legend Diver for size wear comparisons in the future. What a great buy man!
A great watch and congratulations on having it in your collection 👏 PS Next version, add lume on the inner bezel (numbers and dots)... so at this moment it's perfection for me.
I can see why you like it, it isn't really my cup of tea, but I can't see anything to criticise. One odd thing is the oversized minute markers make it less legible somehow, I felt it looked easier to read in the dark.
Lovely! I think it's about time the Swatch group made some changes in the brand placement of it's brands. They're definitely testing Longines to be placed closer to Omega now.
I bought the 36mm back in 2020 and honestly, while a little on the smaller side for my wrists (especially before it became cool) that could be the only watch I own. I haven't bought a high-end watch for myself since then (the King Seiko SPB383 and 369 my wife bought me don't count! 😂)
At some point I've been looking at the LLD in 36 because I was considering the 42 too wide on the wrist. UU! I wish I can receive such gifts! :D Cheers!
Awesome watch! I love that beads of rice bracelet. I really like Longines’ Spirit Zulu Time in 39mm…if it had been available when I got my BB58 last year, it may have been a consideration.
I don’t understand why they haven’t made the Hydroconquest clasp standard across all models or at least release upgrades on new releases. This is an amazing watch with an amazing design but why not put a micro adjust clasp??
Absolutely beautiful watch, and the shots/video are superb. I do fell let down by Longines as I have the OG 42mm with Milanese strap, not the size as it wears just right on my wrist, but the lume was awful, it's like they never cared or thought about it.
Loose the internal bezel (looks disproportional anyway), crown at 3, date at 6 or no date, improve lume(d) numbers and you have a great field/sports watch.
This watch is definitely next up on my purchase list! Absolute stunner and so versatile, your review really sold me on it! Fantastic review as always. ...Though I must ask, what was the background music you used for this? I am mesmerized by it haha
We have to give Longines credit for their originality of design. Choosing not to copy everyone else r.g. Bezel "on top,' of the watch.. Which could catch one clothing and year clothing.. Maybe ripping off the bezel. Won't happen with this watch. No inner actually uses the bezel.. Just something to post with when bored.. Heh.. No helium escape no matter.. No one with a diver watch actually dives hehe
GREAT video ... The watch is beautiful during the day, but I have one objection. I feel the luminous dials should be V - 15 - 30 - 45 and not just 24 hours. There's something wrong with the design that cancels it's own existance ... It's a legendary diver's watch after all.
Another great episode. I tried this model on last week and it certainly is an very elegant piece. I am also a big fan of the Ultra-Chron, very different aesthetic but still super cool.
Longines legend diver 39 or tudor black bay 58 as one watch collection ? ( considering the lld 39 to be much cheaper than bb58 due to discounts by Longines ad )
Excellent review as always, thank you. Very strong specs, irresistible look - however for me there’s a deal breaker: this is a fake super compressor. So the design is more about marketing than function and for me (subjectively) it doesn’t work. A submariner or a marine master have a philosophy that suits me best.
There are so many watches that nod to the supercompressor style, and Longines has legitimate history here. To say it's about 'marketing' and not 'design' is cynical, I think. No watches of this style should be produced unless they're actual supercompressors? I'd rather have practical modern WR technology anyway.
@@BraveBeaters I wouldn’t say cynical my friend, it’s just my taste when it comes to design - the idea that for a tool watch, the function dictates the form. Not for a dress watch or whatever. But anyway it’s just my personal taste - our hobby is subjective and that’s how it should be, love what you want ! (And that’s also because I respect Longines and because I know the firepower of their group as well).
I think they are pretty much from the same font family. If you are talking about "12" and "3" the bezel has indeed other family font which I believe are meant to be more discreet. But good point.
May I know what the purple sweatshirt (or maybe a sweater? - hard to tell from the video) is? Color looks phenomenal and would go super with my also same purple color dial watch. :)
Buy it again... You can get very good deals on the 42 mm. I recently found one new for less than 1/2 price. The only problem is that you need a large wrist...
@@filmaelculdetomare I am wrist size challenged unfortunately . I am waiting to see the new hydroconquest gmt in 39mm ,same with the conquest. That will be coming sooner then later.
I own both black and blue dial on bracelet, I can confirm that the lugs are shorter and the L2L as well. It's really has great spec overall as Longines is pushing forward on all their models.
This is some major nitpicking but that music choice and your delivery didn't work for me on this one. There was no rhyme or reason, it felt like the music just started and then stopped and then started again. It was all so random and off beat. Needed a different flow or a different track. Let it breathe in some moments, have the courage to step back at times. Anyway, I'm sure you'll figure it out over time. Always a pleasure to watch your videos!
@@BraveBeaters yes they only need 60% of the parts made in switzerland to have the stamp...they got surpass at their game haha they use to copy american and english brands for more than 100 years since 1800 ....i think when the cheapest watch of rolex tool watch is 8000 canadian dollar you failed somewhere...
0:56 Why the grooves of the crown look so dirty / rusty? A new watch shouldn't have that kind of dirt isn't it? Watch in 2K and if you are watching on a phone, you can pause the video and pinch to zoom to see it clearly.

Currently, this is the best watch channel on YT. Excellent images, impeccable text and always very objective. Congrats!

Thank you! :)
I'm glad Longines is getting the love
It's been a great year for Longines. I am torn between them and Frederique Constant for 2024. Have a great weekend my friend!
FC is amazing as well, I am a fan of the Highlife platform! They offers amazing value for the money. Thank you very much, have a great weekend as well! :)
I was also immediately interested by this one. 39mm still being a bit outside my usual comfort zone however.
it would be REALLY hard to choose between this black one and the blue, the blue is SO nice!
Amazing video! This is the one watch I'll never sell. I always come back to it. I have the 42mm

I found the small crown very uncomfortable on the BB54. The chunky big crown of the 58 is so satisfying.
@@rabtrekker The "curse" for a watch collector - too many options, too costly, and only one wrist (and ironically, so little time).
Congratulations with this stunner! I hope I can add it to my collection as well upcoming year.
Great vid! I really enjoyed the b-roll footage.
You picked some great strap combo's nonetheless! Great close-ups on the dial. You could use the Legend Diver for size wear comparisons in the future. What a great buy man!
Thank you! It can serve as reference, yes :)
I look forward to seeing where they go with this model. I'm personally hoping they bring in the bronze and green dial to the 39mm line.
Probably milk this size as they did with the 42 mm version
A great watch and congratulations on having it in your collection 👏

@@BraveBeaters would make sense. Either way this is probably one of the best longines released this year.
Lovely watch and excellent review. Can’t justify the cost but if money wasn’t a factor I would certainly pick up
Agree!
I'd still prefer the date included like the 2 other sizes and OTF clasp now too for this price.
Great video! Man that thing is a beat for beat clone of the Orient Weekly Auto King Diver reissue.
Very nice.
Pity Longines decided to do away with the two-piece supercompressor back.
Absolutely beautiful watch, and the shots/video are superb. I do fell let down by Longines as I have the OG 42mm with Milanese strap, not the size as it wears just right on my wrist, but the lume was awful, it's like they never cared or thought about it.
Loose the internal bezel (looks disproportional anyway), crown at 3, date at 6 or no date, improve lume(d) numbers and you have a great field/sports watch.

We have to give Longines credit for their originality of design. Choosing not to copy everyone else r.g. Bezel "on top,' of the watch.. Which could catch one clothing and year clothing.. Maybe ripping off the bezel. Won't happen with this watch.

This or the BB54/BB58? Would love to see a comparison or hear your thoughts!
That's a good idea! I will try to squeeze a review between 54 and LLD.
The 42 and 36 have much better fume colors. And inlike the Braclet but no on the fly micro adjust right?
Agree, they will probably launch gradient versions in the future. As for the clasp, oldschool adjusting, yes.
Now I want one ❤
haha! It's a cool piece! :D
Another great episode. I tried this model on last week and it certainly is an very elegant piece. I am also a big fan of the Ultra-Chron, very different aesthetic but still super cool.
30% more expensive than the 36mm and 42mm. A legend, indeed.
Do you have a list of watches in order of the "brave score"?
beautiful!! just wish it was like $1500 not $2500.00 almost tudor territory :\
Longines legend diver 39 or tudor black bay 58 as one watch collection ? ( considering the lld 39 to be much cheaper than bb58 due to discounts by Longines ad )
Your entire collection? Damn! If I can afford any of your watches... I would be in line to buy one. Anyways, a good review nontheless..
Thank you! Yes, I can live with a single watch instead of an entire collection :) Cheers!

Insane watch, it only lacks the conquest bracelet and or a rubber strap, not a fan of that bracelet!!
Agree, I think they could had offered an ''integrated'' rubber with a fancy clasp as strap options.
Wouldn't it have been nicer if they would have used the same font for all numbers?
I think they are pretty much from the same font family. If you are talking about "12" and "3" the bezel has indeed other family font which I believe are meant to be more discreet. But good point.
Other than how beautiful this video is… what’s the song?!
Beautiful ❤
Cannot believe the previous iterations had the seconds hand without lume … how can they pass the ISO certification as a diver ?
Best ISO, no ISO! :)))
@@BraveBeaters LOL!
Is someone able to tell me how this style of bracelet adjusts in size? Can you still remove links or is it just all with the micro adjustments?
May I know what the purple sweatshirt (or maybe a sweater? - hard to tell from the video) is? Color looks phenomenal and would go super with my also same purple color dial watch. :)
Fantastic watch, apart from the, the grains of rice bracelet.
That spoils it for me.
Why do so many watchmakers put embossed figures on the back, which can aggravate the skin? Leave it flat like Tudor and Rolex.
Would you pick this over the rado captain cook?
You show the LLD with a rubber band, is the band OEM?

Great content. What is the song?
It´s a pitty it doesn´t have a date window option. =(
If you actually had to restrict yourself to a single watch, would you choose a diver? I wouldn't.
I would keep this LLD, yes. It doesn't look particularly like a tool watch.
@@BraveBeaters chacun à son goût🙂
I couldn't live without a twisty bezel.
no date 😔
i like
Gorgeous watch but the lugs are way too long.
47 mm is actually decent, the older one had 52 mm or more.
I own both black and blue dial on bracelet, I can confirm that the lugs are shorter and the L2L as well. It's really has great spec overall as Longines is pushing forward on all their models.

Let it breathe in some moments, have the courage to step back at times. Anyway, I'm sure you'll figure it out over time. Always a pleasure to watch your videos!
its funny to think that they up their game since they move their bracelet production in china...
I think the cases as well. Technically all the Swatch group brands have factories in china now. the assembly and the QC being made in Switzerland.
@@BraveBeaters yes they only need 60% of the parts made in switzerland to have the stamp...they got surpass at their game haha they use to copy american and english brands for more than 100 years since 1800 ....i think when the cheapest watch of rolex tool watch is 8000 canadian dollar you failed somewhere...
39mm what a shame , to big for this kind of watch
the original one from the 60's was 42 mm in diam.
0:56 Why the grooves of the crown look so dirty / rusty? A new watch shouldn't have that kind of dirt isn't it?
Watch in 2K and if you are watching on a phone, you can pause the video and pinch to zoom to see it clearly.
haha! I missed to clean it properly, I had a couple of days with the watch before I did the shootings so dirt or pieces of skin might had been there.
You'll never not buy another watch 😂
In less than 24 H after the review launch, I "had" to buy one :))))
The clasp is still rubbish.
Oh God no, now I have to buy one. Thanks Obama.
:)
hahah! It's good, It's good! :)
Strepitoso ❤
