For sale is my Longines ref. 7158 cal 280 manual wind. The dial is a gorgeous, vertically-brushed silver color, adorned with yellow gold alpha hands and bar indices, in excellent condition.

Case is unpolished and free of major dings, gouges, or corrosion; 35mm wide w/out crown. Normal scratches from wear are present, especially on the lugs.

Please see the photos for details, as they are an integral part of the description.

The crystal is likewise in excellent condition, scratch-free. It is signed and (I believe) an original crown.

This is sold head only, but if you'd like the light-colored lizard strap, you may have that, too; just say so before buying, otherwise I do have another watch that wants it!

Movement is the Longines caliber 280 manual wind, keeping good time within 20s/day. The previous owner says it was serviced in 2015.

Price: $340. OBO. Includes PP and conUS shipping. Sale is final, unless watch is not as described here.

PM me if you want additional photos or information... thanks for looking!

I'll make an exception and deal with the consequences if your Centenaire comes back up.
