This Longines 23022 gentlemen's wristwatch dates from the 1960s mid-century modern period. The watch has a round case, a textured stretch bracelet strap, and a minimalist white dial with gold baton hour markers, gold-tone hands, and a glass crystal, all formed from 9ct yellow gold and metal. The piece measures 3.5 cm high. It is worn on the wrist as a dress accessory for formal or daily use in a gentleman's library or office setting. The round case holds a manual wind movement with a winding crown on the right side and straight lugs connecting to the patterned mesh bracelet strap.

Mid-century gold dress watches are characterised by slim profiles, minimalist circular or rectangular cases, simple dial configurations with baton markers, and an emphasis on refined elegance for formal occasions.

Swiss timepieces from this era typically utilized 9ct or 18ct solid gold for cases, mechanical manual-wind or automatic movements, acrylic crystals, and metallic or leather straps.

Authentic pieces feature official hallmark stampings inside the case back, reference and serial numbers matching company production records, signed crowns, and crisp branding printed on the dial.

A vintage gold dress watch pairs naturally with tailored suits and formal wear, but can also elevate smart-casual outfits when worn alongside modern gold accessories or minimalist tailoring.

Keep mechanical timepieces away from water, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields, wind manual movements regularly, and have the internal mechanism serviced by a specialist every three to five years.
