Antique Longines Pocket Watch, 1918

1900 - 1920
Description

Antique Longines pocket watch, 1918.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Longines name, and it has the serial number 3,697,561 which dates it back to 1918. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 48mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is nickel and it is in good condition. The inner case back has the Longines logo.

The glass lens has a 2mm chip right at the bottom but otherwise is in lovely condition.

The signed dial looks good to the naked eye. If viewed more closely (or in the zoomed in photos) there are several faint hairlines and small marks.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

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.

We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.

Credit / debit card purchases up to £300 can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers.

We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.

FAQs

Open face pocket watches without a protective metal cover over the dial became increasingly popular in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries for easy time reading. Prominent Swiss manufacturers refined precision keyless lever movements during this era, supplying timepieces globally for railway, military, and civilian use.

Timepiece cases from this period were commonly manufactured from silver, nickel alloy, gold plate, or solid gold. Dials were predominantly made of kiln-fired vitreous enamel over copper plates, paired with blued steel hands and brass or steel mechanical movement components.

Authentic timepieces feature clear manufacturer markings on the dial, movement, and inner casing. Serial numbers engraved on the movement and case back allow precise dating through manufacturer archives, while movement hallmarks and jewel count stamps verify original production.

Pocket watches are frequently styled in contemporary settings displayed on acrylic or metal hanging stands within glass cloches or study shelving. They are also worn attached to a fob chain in waistcoat pockets or converted into decorative desk timepieces.

Mechanical timepieces require periodic servicing by a qualified horologist every three to five years to clean and lubricate internal gears. The watch should be stored away from moisture, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields to maintain operational accuracy.
