Important details

The black dial has a fine, regularly structured finish that subtly changes character depending on the light.

The large silver-colored Roman numerals form a strong contrast with the black background. The classic feuille-shaped hour and minute hands complement the traditional design of the Master Collection.

The date window is at 3 o’clock and features a silver-colored surround. Along the outer edge runs a separate minute scale with Arabic markings every five minutes.

The combination of the black dial, polished steel case and black leather strap gives this edition a classic, formal look.

Estimated year of manufacture

Estimated production period: circa the 2010s.

Reference L2.793.4 was produced for several years in various iterations. Without a dated warranty card or purchase documentation, an exact production year cannot be determined.

Case

The round case is made of stainless steel and has a diameter of 40 mm.

The case is largely high-gloss polished and is characterized by the elegant, lightly curved lugs of the Master Collection. The relatively slim case construction ensures that the watch retains a refined dress-watch appearance despite its 40 mm diameter.

On the polished surfaces there are fine hairlines and normal superficial signs of use. There are no notable heavy damages to the case.

Dial

The black dial is one of the most characteristic parts of this version.

Edition:
- Black finely textured dial
- Large silver-colored Roman numerals
- Silver feuille-shaped hour and minute hands
- Central seconds hand
- Date window at 3 o’clock
- Minute scale along the outer rim
- Longines logo and wings logo under 12 o’clock
- “AUTOMATIC” above 6 o’clock
- “SWISS MADE” at the bottom of the dial

The dial presents very neatly. The Roman numerals, inscriptions and minute scale are sharp and clearly legible.

Movement

The watch is powered by the automatic Longines caliber L888.2.

Frequency: 25,200 A/h
Power reserve: approximately 64–72 hours, depending on the specific generation of the movement

Case back

The case back is transparent, allowing the automatic movement to be visible.

The rotor is Longines-signed and clearly reads L888.2. The movement features decorative finishes, including perlage and striped rotor decoration.
Around the sight window are the markings of the Longines Master Collection, Swiss Made and stainless steel.
On the polished steel parts of the back there are some light scratches and hairlines that are consistent with normal use.

Crown

The grooved crown features the Longines Winged-Sandwatch logo.

The crown finishes and fits neatly with the polished steel case.

Leather band and clasp

The current black leather band has been replaced and is therefore not offered as the original Longines band.

The band has a crocodile pattern and black stitching. It presents itself neatly and suits the black dial well.

The steel folding clasp is Longines-signed and features both the Longines name and the Winged-Sandwatch logo.

The clasp shows some light superficial signs of use and hairlines.

Suitable wrist circumference: approximately 20 cm.
