The watch measures 35mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel and it is in good condition. The back of the watch has the gold Flagship emblem. Originally it would have had blue enamel detail but only traces remain now. The inside of the case back is signed with the Longines logo. Signed Longines winding crown.

The back of the watch states that the watch is waterproof but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands, centre seconds hand and outer minute markers. There is some marking to the dial but fairly light.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
