Rare Original Solid 14ct White Gold Longines Mystery Dial Mens Vintage Watch C1960

1940 - 1960
Description

This is a wonderful example of a gents classic wristwatch made by the world renowned premier Swiss maker Longines.

Everything about this watch is original, the dial has not been restored or retouched in any way. It has diamonds to the 12,3,6 and 9 and the floating diamond indicates the hour. The lightening bolt baton markers also makes it really stand out.

The calibre 23Z manual winding movement has just been professionally serviced and a new glass has been fitted. The case has been professionally polished so is pristine.

There is also an email for the Longines Archives which gives information about the watch.

As you would expect the watch is fully marked on the dial, movement and case.

It comes complete with a brand new quality black leather strap and its original presentation box.

Longines are one of the most exclusive watchmakers in the world and this watch certainly has that understated elegance that whispers class.

The watch case measures 34mm in diameter not including the crown.

Overall this watch is in outstanding original condition and probably the best of this model we have ever come across and highly sought after by Longines collectors

The watch has been fully serviced. It has been professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.

It is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers parts. Each part is then thoroughly cleaned in a three stage ultrasonic cleaning process.

The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturers approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and sealed.

Obviously this is not a cheap or quick process which is why our watches are sometimes a little more expensive than others but you can be assured our watches will give you reliable and dependable service and will not require further service for many years.
