Found an old Longine - need help identifying.
So, I was going through my parent's safe today and came across my grandpa's old watch. It is a Longine but I know absolutely nothing about it. On the back casing all it say is next to a little star "10K ROP Bezel Stainless Steel back" that is all the information on this watch. I don't want to take the back casing off so I was wondering if anyone could give me any information about this watch. Thank!IMAG0269.jpgIMAG0270.jpgIMAG0271.jpgIMAG0274.jpgIMAG0275.jpg

The only better in my collection is the Orange Monster.Now for the story. By the serial number it was made @2005. It has all the original parts including the deployant clasp and strap. The seller sent the strap even though he was upfront about it being potential trash. A

as a WIS what do you think of the new LG watch phone?
uncrate/men/gear/cell...h-watch-phone/i, personally, do not care for it. don't get me wrong, it's kind of cool (in that geeky sort of way) and i'm sure it will be a hit with it's intended market. however, as a WIS, i like wearing watches. how are you ever supposed to wear a watch when you have to wear your phone? i suppose this will finally put an end to all the nay syaers who don't wear watches because they have cell phones. now the two are one! not to mention for those of us who coordinate our watches with whatever we happen to be wearing that day, what do you do with this thing?
