1956 VINTAGE LONGINES GENT'S WATCH  

item # LON860

Here's an unique and well preserved vintage Longines Automatic.  The unpolished case is original and in very good condition.  Brand new crystal.  The case dimension is 34mm across excluding the crown by 40.3mm lug tip to lug tip.  Case model is 2869-4 (8863566).  Will come with a brand new 18mm handmade genuine leather strap.  The dial is factory original and in excellent condition.  The automatic movement is Longines caliber 19AS and has been recently serviced.  Movement serial number is 10010250 dating this watch to 1952.  Only purchase this watch if you do not mind daily manual wind as these early Longines automatic calibers only wind in one direction, and automatic system will need much stronger wrist motion once mainspring gets close to max strength.  Rare and well preserved vintage Longines similar to this is scarce in today's market.  Wrist size in photo is 6 inches.
