This exquisite Longines ref. 4155 offers refined mid-century elegance in a sharply faceted tonneau case, paired beautifully with its original signed mesh bracelet. Powered by the robust Longines cal. L847.4, this manual-wind classic displays striking Roman numerals on a vertically brushed silver dial, creating a timeless look suitable for both formal and casual wear. With its minimalist design, crisp condition, and impressive wrist presence, this example is a superb choice for collectors seeking vintage Swiss sophistication.

Reference Number: 4155  
Serial Number: 18456397  
Movement: Longines Cal. L847.4, manual wind, 17 jewels, serial 53724616  
Dial: Brushed silver with black Roman numerals and signed Longines winged hourglass logo, original thin black stick hands  
Case Size: 29mm (excluding the crown)  
Case Material: Stainless steel  
Production Year: Circa 1970s  
Condition: Performs approx. +40 to +42 s/d on the timegrapher with strong amplitude, stunning vintage condition

Dial and Hands  
The original vertically brushed silver dial features crisp, painted black Roman numerals with a classic minimalist layout and an applied Longines logo. Slim, original black baton hands provide excellent legibility and reinforce the elegant, understated aesthetic.

Case and Crystal  
The 29mm tonneau-shaped case presents sharply defined lines, polished surfaces, and unpolished contours. The original mineral crystal is free of major blemishes. The fixed integrated lugs transition smoothly into the signed mesh bracelet for a seamless appearance.

Movement  
Inside beats the venerable Longines cal. L847.4 manually wound movement, running and keeping time within vintage tolerances, observed at +40 to +42 seconds per day with strong amplitude. The movement is clean and corrosion-free.

Strap  
Supplied on its original integrated and adjustable stainless steel Longines mesh bracelet, double signed at the clasp and end links. Fits wrists up to approximately 18cm.

Condition  
Exceptional original condition with minimal signs of use. The case retains its sharp edges and factory finishing. The dial is clear, with only the lightest signs of aging. Hands and indices remain original and intact. Bracelet is tight and shows negligible stretch.

Dimensions  
Case: 29mm (excluding crown)  
Lug-to-Lug: Approx. 34mm  
Thickness: Approx. 7mm  
Bracelet: Stainless steel mesh, adjustable signed clasp, fits wrists up to 18cm

Remarks  
An impressive vintage Longines in truly collectible condition, complete with original dial, case, and bracelet. Tonneau models with their period-correct mesh bracelets are becoming increasingly difficult to find in this state.

History  
Longines' heritage of classic dress watches is embodied in this 1970s tonneau model. The robust cal. L847.4, minimalist Roman dial, and elegant casework exemplify the brand’s mid-century commitment to Swiss watchmaking excellence—making this piece a worthy addition to any vintage collection.
