Owners widely praise the Longines LEGEND DIVER 42 BLACK LACQUERED for its retro design and black lacquered dial with minimal text, noting its strong lume. However, the 42mm case's 50mm lug-to-lug length is a point of contention, with some finding it long while others report it wears smaller than dimensions suggest and sits flush on larger wrists. The clasp is noted to scratch easily, and the bracelet lacks end links.
