Hi guys,

Am a newbie here and to vintage Longines in general so please be gentle!

Saw this watch, supposedly a Longines 30CH at a local shop. Apologies for the poor pic.

Could I get some advice on its condition, originality and collectibility? Also it's fair value if you don't mind. Would you get this piece?

Thanks!

 

One more pic

 

That's a very nice looking ref. 6592 in what looks to be very good, original (dial, handset, crown) condition. Im guessing 36-37mm or so.
Very collectible.
Christies watch shop (not auction) just had one, quite reasonably priced at $2900, in far lesser condition with a less desirable dial.
How much are they asking?

 

Yes, it's a 30ch.

 

very nice find. i would keep it. BUT - what is the difference between "fair price" and " all the market will bare" ?

 

Thanks for the speedy reply!

They are asking approximately 6800 USD. Would that be fair to you?

I'm told it's 38mm. It comes with a longines museum archive paper too dating it to 1963.

 

i am not a buyer. i am a collector. thanks for the response

 

Vinn2 I have not bought it yet. Am asking for opinions before purchasing

 

Better pics are in.. And the price is 7150 USD.

 

Any comments about the case? And especially about the 30CH movement? Is it correct?

 

It's correct - all correct.

 

very nice photo of the watch and the archive.

 

This dial is not particularly rare, the case has been polished, and the price is a bit steep.

Nice watch but a pass for me.

 

Thanks for your thoughts..

Is the price decent though? Got the impression it's pretty high and am thinking of passing due to that..

 

Price is 7150usd, not 6800 as mentioned earlier

 

I edited my response. The watch is a pass at that price.

 

Thanks mate for your thoughts !
