This is a very beautiful vintage Longines wristwatch that we believe to be from 1946. It comes with its original Longines presentation box.
This is a manual winding watch with Swiss caliber 10.68Z/10L, with 17 jewels, and is unadjusted. It has a sub-second and is running great!
The silver dial is beautiful with gold-applied Arabic numerals and matching gold stick-shaped hands, a sub-second with a gold stick hand, and a black minute track. The dial is signed Longines. The case measures approximately 28 mm x 25.5 mm and is 10 karat yellow gold fill with fancy lugs. The case back shows wear, see photos.
It comes on a beautiful new, brown, two-piece leather strap with a gold buckle.
This is a beautiful Longines wristwatch that is keeping excellent time!

Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size.
We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust lighting when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that.
The condition is pre-owned.
The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended. Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have. It will be carefully packed.
