1961 Longines Flagship cal. 341 Date at 12 All Steel

I am going to part with some more from my Longines collection. At first...

Up for sale from my private collection is this nice Longines Flagship

Flagship Ref. 3108
- Serial no. 1176.... dates back to 1961
- Cal. 341, rare date at 12, automatic, very clean
- Mint original dial with original lume
- Solid steel case (35,3 mm without crown)
- Steel markers and hands (could be white gold as well)
- Signed original Longines crown
- Gold & enamel "flagship" embossed on caseback
- New quality leather strap and generic buckle

Dial and Hands

Uncommon and appealing date at 12 variant.
Dial and hands are at least near mint without showing any signs of age that are distracting. (Please note that the small visible blemishes are inside the crystal and not on the dial).

Case

The case is very sharp with only minor scratches. I think it is still unpolished. The gold medallion on the case back is still holding almost it's complete enamel - which is quite uncommon for these references. Please check the photos.

Movement

Clean Longines in-house automatic caliber ref. 340 beautifully finished. In the early 60ies this movement was the most advanced Longines had to offer for 3 handed watches.
Winds and sets fine and is running strong. Nonetheless as the service history is unknown I would recommend a service if you want to wear it regularly.

Price and Shipping

I am asking for 749 EUR (OBO) net to me. Bankwire or transferwise is preferred, paypal please add 4% (payment to be done in Euro pls). I will ship worldwide from Germany. We can discuss shipping options like EMS or parcel services like UPS,TNT, DHL

I can provide references on OF and have lots of positive feedback on ebay.
Please have a look on the pictures. No returns unless the condition of the watch is misrepresented.

Please feel free to answer to this thread or PM me if you have questions. I can provide additional pictures or small videos on request.

Thanks for looking!

Many thanks Tony! The flagship is already OHPF😀

Regarding the pictures. I usually just use my mobile phone for all my watch pics also on IG. At the end it's all about the lighting I think. The ones in this ad are taken on a window sill in full natural light and come straight out of the device. Just a little resized to lower the file size.

Sold! Many thanks to J. and OF for the space
😀

Thanks Doug! Sorry you missed it, but I think you already have at least one gorgeous all steel flagship in your collection. We should all try to stop that hoarding 😁 😉
