Longines Flagship, circa 1960
A Flagship from Longines dating to around 1960, this 34 mm steel dress watch exemplifies mid‑century restraint with a finely balanced dial and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock. The acrylic crystal, original crown and calf leather strap preserve the period look, while the compact 34 mm case wears with classical proportions. Power comes from the manually wound Longines caliber 30L — a robust 17‑jewel movement renowned in the brand’s post‑war output. Serviced in April 2026, the watch offers a ready-to-wear piece of mechanical horology that complements a contemporary collection seeking authentic vintage character.
