The Longines Year of the Dragon (One of 888) is praised for its sophisticated 1950s-inspired design and versatile red and gold color scheme, featuring a sunburst dial with gold markers, a pointer date, and a moonphase display. Owners appreciate the limited production of 888 pieces and the lucky connotations of the number eight, along with the brand and its L888.5 movement. The 38.5mm case size and dragon's head caseback engraving are also noted. However, its 30m water resistance is flagged as a drawback. Owners report that Longines' non-COSC L888 movement variants consistently perform within COSC specifications, with one example showing +0/+2 seconds per day. Overall, owners and reviewers praise the Longines Year of the Dragon (One of 888) for its attractive design and reliable movement, despite its limited water resistance.
