Description

Gents Longines Flagship automatic wrist watch, 1966.

UK POSTAGE ONLY FOR THIS ITEM

The watch has a 17-jewel calibre 345 automatic movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed, and it has the serial number 13,401,308 which dates it back to 1966.

The watch measures 35mm diameter excluding the original Longines winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel and it is in good condition with just the odd light marking, nothing serious at all. The case back has the Flagship logo, just traces of the original blue enamel left. There is also a 1966 long service inscription.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands, centre seconds and a date display (initially set by turning the hands just past midnight so the date clicks over, then go backwards to 9pm, and forwards again to click over. Keep going until you reach the desired date).

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Vintage Automatic Wristwatch to the 1960s.

Dealers Notes

ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (because of GPSR legislation, we no longer post items less than 100 years old to Europe, including Northern Ireland).

Please contact us regarding international shipping.

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.

Wristwatches from the 1960s typically feature clean dials, slim profiles, understated baton markers, and minimalist stainless steel or gold-plated cases designed for formal or daily wear.

Timepieces from this period generally utilised stainless steel, solid gold or gold-filled cases, acrylic crystals, genuine leather straps, and mechanical hand-wound or early automatic self-winding movements.

Authenticity is verified by examining the movement serial numbers, hallmarks on the case interior, correct dial typography, and matching reference numbers associated with the manufacturers historical archives.

A classic vintage dress watch pairs seamlessly with tailored modern suiting, smart-casual knitwear, or minimalist everyday attire, adding a subtle touch of mid-century sophistication.

Vintage timepieces should be kept away from excessive moisture and magnetic fields, serviced by a professional horologist every three to five years, and stored in a dry environment.
