Introduction Offered here is a classic Longines quartz wristwatch with a refined cushion-shaped case and a clean, minimalist dial. Longines is one of Switzerland's most historically important maisons, respected by collectors for its long continuity in precision timekeeping and elegant design language. Historical & Collector Value Vintage and neo-vintage Longines quartz pieces have become increasingly appreciated for their understated styling and dependable daily usability. This example stands out with its square-cushion case profile, slim baton indexes, and the signed Longines dial with winged hourglass emblem. The design is very much in the late-1970s to 1980s dress-watch tradition: simple, well-proportioned, and distinctly Swiss. For collectors, these less-common case shapes and bracelet/strap executions often carry more interest than standard round cases, especially when the dial layout remains clean and original in appearance. Specifications - Brand: Longines - Model: Quartz - Reference Number: 717 - Movement: Quartz - Dial Color: Silver - Crystal: - Water Resistance: Condition Overall condition is good with visible signs of use. The case shows surface scratches and scuffs consistent with wear, most noticeable along edges and on the side profile. The crystal shows scratches and the crown also shows wear; the crown has a black cabochon-style tip. The dial presents nicely with light age-related marks, and the baton hour markers remain attractive and legible. The strap is black plastic and shows wear and aging; clasp hardware is present and functional for wearing, but the strap condition should be considered when valuing the set.
