FAQs

Is the Longines Legend Diver 39mm suitable for scuba diving?

Yes, with 300 meters of water resistance and a dedicated diving flange, it meets the requirements for recreational scuba diving.

How often should I service this watch?

It is generally recommended to have your mechanical watch serviced every 3 to 5 years to ensure movement accuracy and seal integrity.

Does the watch require a battery?

No, the Legend Diver uses a mechanical automatic movement that winds itself through the natural motion of your wrist.

What does the 72-hour power reserve mean?

If you fully wind the watch, it will continue to run for 72 hours while sitting still without needing to be worn.

Can I replace the strap?

Yes, the watch features standard lug widths that allow for a variety of aftermarket straps, though using authentic Longines replacements is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Watch stopped running

The automatic movement needs winding. Manually rotate the crown clockwise about 20-30 times to build up the power reserve.

Internal bezel is difficult to turn

Ensure the crown is fully unscrewed. If it remains stiff, do not force it; consult a certified Longines service center.

Moisture under the sapphire crystal

This indicates a seal failure. Keep the watch away from further water and take it to an authorized technician immediately.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile 39mm case size suitable for most wrists
  • Impressive 72-hour power reserve
  • Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating
  • High water resistance rating of 300 meters
  • Sophisticated, timeless design aesthetic

Cons

  • Internal bezel requires two-crown operation
  • Lacks a date magnification lens if preferred by some users
  • Vintage-inspired design may not suit modern tool-watch preferences

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Longines Legend Diver running accurately, ensure the screw-in crowns are fully tightened before exposure to water. To set the time, unscrew the primary crown (usually the one at the 3 o'clock position), pull it out to the desired position, adjust, and push back in before screwing it down securely. For the internal bezel, unscrew the secondary crown to rotate the flange to your desired mark, then ensure it is screwed back down to maintain the water-resistant seal. For cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to remove salt or perspiration after wear. Avoid harsh chemicals and store in a clean, dry environment when not in use.
