AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Now available at auction from Second Vintage
This classic Longines dress watch features an exceptionally clean champagne dial with striking vertical brushing and crisp Roman numerals. Powered by the slim manual-wind Longines caliber L 847.3, the watch retains its signed crown and offers an elegant, highly legible presence on the wrist.
Brand: Longines
Reference Number: 1077 1
Serial Number: 52718743
Movement: Manual-wind Longines caliber L 847.3, 17 jewels
Dial: Clean champagne color with vertical brushing and black printed Roman numerals
Case Size: 33mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Base metal, stainless steel caseback
Production Year: 1975
Condition: Good vintage condition. Timegrapher: -60-65s/day, running in operational condition.
Dial and Hands
The dial is exceptionally clean and well-preserved, featuring a champagne color with distinct vertical brushing. Crisp black printed Roman numerals provide excellent contrast, and there is no visible spotting, staining, or damage. The simple black stick hands share this clean finish, showing no visible oxidation and matching the dial perfectly.
Case and Crystal
The case features an integrated smooth bezel and presents well from the front, showing only light surface scratches. The rear of the case, however, exhibits significant pitting and plating loss on the edges and the back of the lugs, leaving it heavily worn on the reverse while remaining highly presentable on the wrist. The stainless steel caseback displays light scratches. The domed acrylic crystal is clear, showing minor surface wear and light micro-scratches. The watch retains its clearly signed crown, featuring the Longines name and winged hourglass logo with good knurling definition.
Movement
Inside is the manual-wind Longines caliber L 847.3. The movement plates bear engravings reading LONGINES SWISS, 17 JEWELS, L 847.3, and the serial number 52718743. Some light scratches and surface dirt are visible on the plates, but there is no severe corrosion visible on the mechanism itself. The timegrapher records -60-65s/day. Running in operational condition. Maintains the authentic mechanical character of the watch.
Strap
The watch is fitted with a casual black leather strap featuring white and brown contrast stitching. It shows light wear and appears relatively new.
Condition
Good vintage condition. The dial and hands are exceptionally well-preserved and free of visible damage. The front of the case and the crystal show normal, light wear, while the rear of the case and the back of the lugs display significant pitting and plating loss. The movement is intact and operational.
Dimensions
Case Size: 33mm (excluding the crown)
Remarks
This Longines offers a strikingly clean, vertically brushed champagne dial and traditional dress watch proportions. The crisp Roman numerals and signed crown make it a highly wearable and appealing vintage timepiece.
History
Longines has a long tradition of producing elegant, slim dress watches.

This classic Longines dress watch represents the refined aesthetic of the mid-1970s, prioritizing clean lines and highly legible dial layouts.
