    Hi

    I Recently got an old vintage Longines from my grandfather, and i don't know anything about it. Except, i think it's made of gold.
    Does someone have some information on it? I have never seen the crown on the top before.

    Appreciate all the help I can get!

    Here is a picture of the inside, Cal 428. Serial number: 13534763. Is the clock worth something?

    It's from the late 60's. The real value of it is in the gold content. Can you show us the inside of the case back?

    You can request information on the watch directly from Longines. They will tell you - for free - when the watch was produced and originally sold, the type of case, movement, and reference number. Link here:

    As for monetary value, as mentioned, primarily the gold content. As an heirloom, priceless.
