Case
The round case is fully made of stainless steel and has a diameter of 40 mm excluding the crown.
The case features mainly polished surfaces, and the long, lightly curved lugs complement the watch’s classic form.
On the right side are:
Signed Longines crown
Chronograph pushers at around 2 o’clock and 4 o’clock
The crown is equipped with the Longines winged hourglass logo.
The case is in neat used condition. The highly polished parts show light surface scratches and signs of wear compatible with normal wear. There are no notable heavy damages to the case.
──────────────────
Dial
The silver-colored dial is one of the most recognizable elements of this variant.
The dial features:
Fine guilloché texture
Large black painted Arabic numerals
Blued feuille-shaped hour and minute hands
Long central chronograph seconds hand
Two recessed subdials with concentric finishing
Minute/second scale along the outer edge
Longines inscription and winged hourglass logo below 12 o’clock
AUTOMATIC inscription above 6 o’clock
SWISS MADE at the bottom of the dial
The date window sits at 6 o’clock and is integrated between the 7 and 5 numerals.
The dial looks very well preserved, and the combination of the silver surface with the dark blue hands provides an attractive contrast depending on the light.

Chronograph
The watch features a classic automatic chronograph function.
The central long hand records the chronograph seconds.
The subdial at 9 o’clock serves as the 30-minute counter for the chronograph.
