Saw this for sale in amongst a watch lot. When I asked what happened to the case he said he melted it for the gold. My heart shattered when I heard this...given how specific the case reference is for the deluxe dial, it will probably never be united with the right case and is destined to end up as a franken
Reminding me of this thread:

That looked like quite a rare art deco longines indeed. Shame because I consider them all historical artefacts
I recently bought a watch at a street fair which turned out to have a donor steel case. The original case was rose gold. Sad the case got lost but I really like it as it is, it works perfectly, I was told it had been serviced, and right now it’s the watch I’ve been wearing the most.

Still beautiful. I really like it. Wear it in good health and stay safe and well, especially in this time of Covid. Has anyone called dibs?
