Introduction This Longines ladies' quartz wristwatch embodies the timeless elegance that has defined the Swiss maison since 1832. Longines, one of the oldest continuously operating watchmakers in the world, is renowned for its refined dress watches and its iconic winged hourglass logo, which is the oldest registered trademark still in use. This particular piece showcases the brand's signature minimalist aesthetic, featuring a warm champagne dial housed in a gold-plated case, paired with a classic black leather strap. Historical & Collector Value The late 1980s to early 1990s marked an important era for Longines, as the brand successfully blended traditional Swiss craftsmanship with the reliability of quartz technology. Ladies' dress watches from this period are increasingly appreciated by collectors for their understated design, high-quality gold-plated finishes, and enduring wearability. The clean dial with applied gold indices, slim profile, and cabochon-set crown reflect the classical codes of Longines' elegant collection.
