A True Collector's Gem

This ultra-slim Longines watch is a remarkable example, measuring just 5.5 mm in thickness and showcasing extraordinary elegance. The timepiece features beautiful patina at the 11, 6, and 7 positions, adding character that will only enhance over time, making it a distinctive piece for collectors. This natural aging process increases the watch's value, reflecting its authenticity and history.

As a stunning creation from Longines, this model is rare and highly sought after by discerning clients, investors, and collectors of fine watches. It is currently in superb working condition, with immaculate timekeeping. Although it was serviced approximately 7 to 8 years ago, it remains unused as part of a collection, ensuring its excellent condition.

Dating from the 1950s, this watch is powered by the Longines 428 movement and features its original dial. It operates with a manual wind mechanism and is protected by an acrylic glass crystal, housed in a steel case with an original crown. The watch is complemented by a new, unused leather strap and an original buckle, making this exquisite Longines timepiece not just a watch, but a beautiful piece of horological history that any serious collector would cherish.
