    Thank you so much. Unfortunately I do not understand what model it is, and how much it can be worth

    Looks legit, even if not in great shape - but maybe because of pics.
    I'm pretty sure it is a 285 handwinding caliber, 34-35 s-steel case, approx. date 1969-1970. Reference I don't remember.
    Today it could be worth 200/250 euros.

    You're welcome.
    Obviously, the sooner you have the case open the better is.
    Curious to read the reference, examples I bumped into in the past were all 34-35 I guess...

    I don't think that movement belongs in that watch, looks like an old pocket watch movement crammed into the case. By the way the 285 movement looks like this:

    As stamped by the balance wheel, it is a caliber 14.25.

    Yes I know, in fact this belongs to an older longines, but I did not understand what a caliber it is

    The watch was this, unfortunately I could not take it. I had never seen it before. Maybe it is not legit :)

    Better for me! I was lucky:D. I like the military, for now I only have a Timor atp and a hamilton mil-w-46374b, this seems to be the same age as the timor

    The clock has arrived, the caseback does not seem to me to pressure, I'm not sure, but I think I should open it from the glass, if it is not pressure, I bring it to a watchmaker, I would not do damage. However it works, and keeps the time well

    "Unfortunately" doesn't seem to me the most appropriate comment to use :)
