Very pleased to post a new arrival, an uncommon Flagship chronometre (reference 102). The sharp stainless case is well-sized at 35.5mm, and has interesting angled and chamfered lugs. Notably, the watch contains one of a relatively small number of special high-grade 30L movements that were fitted with a special balance and chronometer certified. These don't become available very often in my experience, so I was very pleased to have the opportunity to obtain it. Many thanks to @Tony C. for letting it go from his amazing collection.
Love those late 1950s Longines Flagships of that style Dan S! Love the 30L and 30LS movements too! Yours is so fine!
Many thanks Tony. Interesting that the little "102" under the ship on the case-back is the reference of the watch. I wouldn't have guessed that.
The watch is truly a treasure, congratulations on the fine aquisition, @Dan S ! So many things special about this one... for me: A. 1958 is very significant B. I love Flagships! ... and ... C. Can't go wrong with a special Chronometre! If you ever decide it needs a good home besides yours, please let me be the first to adopt...
