    Dear all.

    Hereby offering a set of two matching Longines watches - note that they are only available as a set, please do not inquire about only one of them :)

    Both are cased in stainless steel and feature the same case and dial style with arabic numerals and pencil hands, all of which is stuffed full of radium. Note that there is some lume loss on the minute hand of the "big" Longines.

    The men's watch:


    WP_20180328_17_44_14_Pro.jpg

    Case size of 33.5mm, a little less than 18mm between the lugs. The crown is a replacement I guess and has lost its plating. There is an engraving on the rear and some deep scratches on the crystal at twelve. I believe these can be polished out.

    The movement is, I believe, a 27M (edited after comment - thanks @DirtyDozen12!) and I have no knowledge of previous services. It runs well and winds as it should, though setting the crown is a bit fiddly.

    The women's watch:

    A rather delicate 25mm in diameter with a 12mm lug distance, this Longines feels rock solid. Winding, time setting and running well it is a real charming little gem. As with the companion watch, the lume has turned perfectly tan and the aging on the dial is beautiful.

    The movement is from the 8.68 family, anyone more knowledgable are welcome to comment! :)

    I am asking €550 for these two, returns are possible within a week of arrival (return postage on buyer). I'd prefer bank transfer, but PP is also an option. Watches and I are located in Denmark, EU.

    If only I could get MrsNathan1967 to appreciate Vintage (how I’ve tried), this is exactly what we’d go for. She loves her BiMetal Tag Diver and won’t wear anything else.
    Love conquers all!
