Description from the seller
Longines – Barrel-shaped case with an oval dial – manual winding, working – Swiss Made, 1970s
It has crossed more than 50 years… and it still beats.
There are watches you wear, and others you tell stories about. This Longines from the 1970s belongs to the second category.
It all begins with a brushed steel barrel-shaped case, with soft, sensuous curves, typical of that bold era. In the center, a pure silver oval dial: no numerals, no seconds hand, nothing superfluous. Only twelve baton indices that catch the light, two slender hands, and the famous winged hourglass Longines.
Discreet luxury, in its purest form.
No battery here. Its hand-wound mechanical movement beats to the pace of the person who wears it. Each morning, a few turns of the crown and the mechanism comes to life, as it has since the early 70s. It’s a slow, intimate gesture, the opposite of a connected watch.
Longines, founded in 1832 in Saint-Imier, is one of the oldest Swiss watchmaking houses still in operation. Wearing a vintage Longines is wearing a bit of history on the wrist.
With its 30 mm case, it suits both a man's wrist, as a dressy, characterful watch, and a woman's wrist, who increasingly appreciates it in this vintage format. White shirt, cashmere sweater, little black dress: it goes with everything, and it’s always noticed.
Specifications
Brand: Longines, Swiss Made
Era: 1970s, over 50 years old
Case: brushed steel, barrel-shaped, 30 mm wide excluding crown
Dial: oval, about 25 mm, silver, applied baton indices
Back number: 16219560
Bracelet: brown leather
Condition
Working.
It bears honest traces of a well-lived life: light oxidation around the bezel and case back, small scratches on the crystal, worn strap. The dial, however, remains clean and perfectly legible. A service by a watchmaker will still guarantee many more years of precision.
Who is it for? The authentic vintage enthusiast, the lover of 70s design, or someone seeking a gift with soul.
Careful shipping in a rigid box, tracked and insured.
