Crafting a timepiece which brings together precision, heritage, innovation and wearability is no easy task, but the newest luxury dive watch from Longines checks all the above boxes, and more. Longines is expanding its legendary dive watch collection for 2025 with the Longines Legend Diver, which fuses timeless heritage with contemporary vision and adds a striking addition to the storied collection.
LonginesThe Backstory
First introduced in 1959, the Longines Legend Diver has been an icon in the Longines lineup for six generations, and serves as a testament to the precision, innovation and commitment to tradition that the watchmaker has built its reputation on. The latest chapter in this story is the 2025 Longines Legend Diver collection, which enhances the look of the timepiece while maintaining the distinctive DNA of the collection.
The Gist
For 2025, the Longines Legend Diver is enhanced with an eye-catching matte white dial model, which provides exceptional contrast and readability in any condition. The hours are marked by extended indices and raised Arabic numerals, and are complemented by satinated black and light green arrow hands, all of which are treated with Super-LumiNova® to guarantee best-in-class visibility.
The collection also contains two models featuring either a lacquered blue dial or black dial, paired for the first time with matching blue and black rubber straps, respectively. These additions expand the already diverse Longines Legend Diver collection, and infuse the icon with comfort and durability — two must-haves for modern everyday wear. Each new strap features a diver pin-buckle that ensures a secure fit, whether seafaring or adventuring on dry land.
