Hello all, just thought to give you a small update on how things are moving forward.
First, my watchmaker did his magic and the watch was serviced last week. So, it is now running nicely. And, movement is a caliber 8.68ABC

As for the strap, a friend of mine is actually a leathercrafter/leatherworker, and is helping to make a custom strap. We decide to go with a camel / light brown colour for it... She is still working on it, here are some ideas

WIP...
Finally, I've written to Longines to get some information on the watch itself, and their feedback is quite interesting. The watch was invoice to Cuervos y Sobrinos in Cuba on 15 November 1945! I find it quite cool actually, and hope she will too hahaha
