Mariner89 0 Posted October 17, 2015 Tonight I was having dinner with my father-in-law and one of his associates. Well I was sporting my daily beater (my TC Rouge), the father-in-law had his Gen no date ceramic Sub, and his mate had his gen GMT batman. I had to snap a group pic for you guys of course(I apologize for the poor lighting) ... but we all tried each others on and I must say I'm now a fan of the GMT. Also come to find out the friend of the FIL, well his brother I believe owns the Lonville brand. I had never heard of them until tonight and I plan to research them a bit. Anybody have any info?

Mariner89 0 Posted October 17, 2015 A man that owns a watch brand who doesn't wear his own product? No the brother bought the name rights to a swiss brand ''Lonville'' ... they haven't made watches since the 60's I believe and just released their new line this years with a small run ... they are mainly a classic car brand I think ... I'm still reading upon them ... again this is the first I've heard the name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
