ANALYSE<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

L'histoire des montres de plong\u00e9e est riche en d\u00e9couvertes et en brevets ; elle est pleine d'efforts techniques et technologiques pour pousser les hommes au-del\u00e0 des limites des profondeurs oc\u00e9aniques. Dans ce contexte, Longines a marqu\u00e9 son temps. Apr\u00e8s avoir lanc\u00e9 sa Skin Diver \u201cNautilus\u201d en 1958 (r\u00e9f. 6921), qui exp\u00e9rimentait le bo\u00eetier \u00e0 compresseur brevet\u00e9 par Ervin Piquerez, la Maison \u00e9tait pr\u00eate l'ann\u00e9e suivante \u00e0 lancer la montre de plong\u00e9e qui a donn\u00e9 naissance au design unique et reconnaissable de la \u201cLegend Diver\u201d. La r\u00e9f\u00e9rence 7042 de 1959\/1960, avec son bo\u00eetier Super Compressor, ses deux couronnes signatures et son rehaut interne, a lanc\u00e9 une nouvelle \u00e8re de montres de plong\u00e9e. Le descendant naturel de cette m\u00eame montre, notre r\u00e9f\u00e9rence 7594, a augment\u00e9 le diam\u00e8tre \u00e0 42 mm et renforc\u00e9 les deux couronnes pour pousser la montre jusqu'\u00e0 une profondeur de 200 m\u00e8tres.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le cadran de cette superbe montre est noir mat avec une finition dor\u00e9e. Les polices de caract\u00e8res des chiffres arabes \u00e0 3, 6, 9 et 12 sont imm\u00e9diatement reconnaissables et rappellent imm\u00e9diatement cette montre de plong\u00e9e embl\u00e9matique. Les index rectangulaires pr\u00e9sentent de magnifiques applications de p\u00e2te luminescente de couleur ivoire. Le cadran est entour\u00e9 d'une lunette bidirectionnelle distinctive, actionn\u00e9e par la couronne. Les aiguilles se distinguent par leur forme, en particulier l'index en forme de fl\u00e8che, dont l'extr\u00e9mit\u00e9 pr\u00e9sente un renfoncement pour la p\u00e2te luminescente.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le bo\u00eetier en acier inoxydable est en parfait \u00e9tat, bien qu'il ait \u00e9t\u00e9 pleinement utilis\u00e9 pour l'usage pour lequel cette montre a \u00e9t\u00e9 con\u00e7ue. Il est solide et robuste, car le brevet Super Compressor de Piquerez comprenait un syst\u00e8me qui exploitait l'augmentation de la pression de l'eau par rapport \u00e0 la profondeur pour serrer le fond du bo\u00eetier au corps du bo\u00eetier, assurant ainsi l'\u00e9tanch\u00e9it\u00e9 de la montre. Le fond du bo\u00eetier pr\u00e9sente un design distinctif de plongeur, tandis que les deux couronnes surdimensionn\u00e9es d\u00e9passent du c\u00f4t\u00e9 droit du bo\u00eetier, leurs parties sup\u00e9rieures pr\u00e9sentant typiquement des lignes entrecrois\u00e9es (ce d\u00e9tail est \u00e9galement caract\u00e9ristique des Super Compressor).<\/span><\/p>\n

Cette ic\u00f4ne des montres de plong\u00e9e de tous les temps est anim\u00e9e par le calibre de manufacture Longines 290 : il s'agit d'un calibre automatique \u00e0 rotor bidirectionnel produit par Longines depuis 1960, dot\u00e9 de 24 rubis, d'une fr\u00e9quence de 19'800 A\/h et d'une r\u00e9serve de marche de 45 heures.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Powering this icon of diver's watches of all time is the Longines manufacture calibre 290: it is an automatic calibre with a bi-directional rotor produced by Longines since 1960, it has 24 jewels, a frequency of 19,800 vph and a power reserve of 45 hours.","og_url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/boutique\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/","og_site_name":"The Vintageur","article_modified_time":"2026-03-16T09:03:06+00:00","og_image":[{"width":960,"height":960,"url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/LONGINES-LEGEND-DIVER-SUPER-COMPRESSOR_1_1-960x960.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Prix":"9.500,00 €","Disponibilit\u00e9":"En stock"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/","name":"Longines \"Legend Diver\" Super Compressor Ref. 7594-3 Mouvement automatique maison 290 du milieu des ann\u00e9es 1960 - The Vintageur","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/#primaryimage"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/LONGINES-LEGEND-DIVER-SUPER-COMPRESSOR_1_1.jpg","datePublished":"2026-03-16T05:21:22+00:00","dateModified":"2026-03-16T09:03:06+00:00","description":"SP\u00c9CIFICATIONS Extraordinaire Longines Super Compressor Ref. 7594 \"Legend Diver\", avec un bo\u00eetier en acier inoxydable de 42 mm et un mouvement automatique 290 du milieu des ann\u00e9es 1960. Bo\u00eetier en acier inoxydable de 42 mm Aiguilles d'origine Couronnes d'origine R\u00e9haut d'origine Tritium d'origine Mouvement automatique Longines 290 \u00e0 l'int\u00e9rieur ANALYSE L'histoire des montres de plong\u00e9e est riche en d\u00e9couvertes et en brevets ; elle est pleine d'efforts techniques et technologiques visant \u00e0 pousser les hommes au-del\u00e0 des limites des profondeurs de l'oc\u00e9an. Dans ce contexte, Longines a su s'imposer. Apr\u00e8s avoir lanc\u00e9 sa Skin Diver \"Nautilus\" en 1958 (r\u00e9f. 6921), qui exp\u00e9rimentait le bo\u00eetier \u00e0 compresseur brevet\u00e9 par Ervin Piquerez, la Maison \u00e9tait pr\u00eate l'ann\u00e9e suivante \u00e0 lancer la montre de plong\u00e9e qui a donn\u00e9 naissance au design unique et reconnaissable de la \"Legend Diver\". La r\u00e9f\u00e9rence 7042 de 1959\/1960, avec son bo\u00eetier Super Compressor, ses deux couronnes signatures et son rehaut interne, a lanc\u00e9 une nouvelle \u00e8re de montres de plong\u00e9e. Le descendant naturel de cette m\u00eame montre, notre r\u00e9f\u00e9rence 7594, a augment\u00e9 le diam\u00e8tre \u00e0 42 mm et renforc\u00e9 les deux couronnes pour pousser la montre jusqu'\u00e0 une profondeur de 200 m\u00e8tres. Le cadran de cette superbe montre est noir mat avec une finition dor\u00e9e. Les polices de caract\u00e8res des chiffres arabes \u00e0 3, 6, 9 et 12 sont imm\u00e9diatement reconnaissables et rappellent imm\u00e9diatement cette montre de plong\u00e9e embl\u00e9matique. Les index rectangulaires pr\u00e9sentent de magnifiques applications de p\u00e2te luminescente de couleur ivoire. Le cadran est entour\u00e9 d'une lunette bidirectionnelle caract\u00e9ristique, actionn\u00e9e par la couronne. La forme des aiguilles est caract\u00e9ristique, en particulier celle de l'index en forme de fl\u00e8che, dont l'extr\u00e9mit\u00e9 pr\u00e9sente un renfoncement pour la p\u00e2te luminescente. Le bo\u00eetier en acier inoxydable est en parfait \u00e9tat, bien qu'il ait \u00e9t\u00e9 pleinement utilis\u00e9 pour l'usage pour lequel cette montre a \u00e9t\u00e9 con\u00e7ue. Il est solide et robuste, car le brevet Super Compressor de Piquerez comprenait un syst\u00e8me qui exploitait l'augmentation de la pression de l'eau par rapport \u00e0 la profondeur pour serrer le fond du bo\u00eetier au corps du bo\u00eetier, assurant ainsi l'\u00e9tanch\u00e9it\u00e9 de la montre. Le fond du bo\u00eetier pr\u00e9sente un design distinctif de plongeur, tandis que les deux couronnes surdimensionn\u00e9es d\u00e9passent du c\u00f4t\u00e9 droit du bo\u00eetier, leurs parties sup\u00e9rieures pr\u00e9sentant typiquement des lignes entrecrois\u00e9es (ce d\u00e9tail est \u00e9galement caract\u00e9ristique des Super Compressor). Cette ic\u00f4ne des montres de plong\u00e9e de tous les temps est anim\u00e9e par le calibre de manufacture Longines 290 : il s'agit d'un calibre automatique \u00e0 rotor bidirectionnel produit par Longines depuis 1960, dot\u00e9 de 24 rubis, d'une fr\u00e9quence de 19 800 A\/h et d'une r\u00e9serve de marche de 45 heures.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"fr-FR","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"fr-FR","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/LONGINES-LEGEND-DIVER-SUPER-COMPRESSOR_1_1.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/LONGINES-LEGEND-DIVER-SUPER-COMPRESSOR_1_1.jpg","width":2013,"height":2013},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/longines-legend-diver-super-compressor-ref-7594-3\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Shop","item":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/negozio\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Longines “Legend Diver” Super Compressor Ref. 7594-3 In-House Self-Winding Movement 290 From the Mid-1960s"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#website","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/","name":"Le Vintageur","description":"Votre collection de montres sur mesure","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"fr-FR"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#organization","name":"Le Vintageur","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"fr-FR","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/logo-dark.svg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/logo-dark.svg","width":392,"height":28,"caption":"The Vintageur"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vintageur\/"]}]},"product_price_amount":"9500.00","product_price_currency":"EUR","og_availability":"instock","product_availability":"instock","product_retailer_item_id":"122","product_condition":"new"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3197","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3197"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3197\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":63652,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3197\/revisions\/63652"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63651"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3197"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3197"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3197"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3197"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
