    I am selling my Longines 30CH Ref 5967. Watch comes with a glossy brown strap, a gold plated Longines buckle, and an extract from the archives. It confirms the movement number and the date of invoice 14 April 1954 to Wirth which at that time Longines agent for Switzerland. A point of interest is the watch is a non-flyback. I don't think it's rare but is a point of interest for some collectors.
    DIAL: If you like patina or freckles on your dial this is an ideal watch for you. I personally liked it and gives a lot of character to its looks, It has applied gold numerals at the even numbers and dagger markers at the odd numbers. It has a 1/5 markers around the outer perimeter.
    CASE: The case is18K yellow gold and a substantial 38mm in diameter not including the crown, it has a gold signed Longines crown and rectangular pushers. The case is very well defined edges but the bezel has 3 dings at 12 which are very hard to see unless the light hits it correctly. The case back is engraved as shown in the pictures and also has a ding at the bottom and a very slight crease just under the "1929" date.
    Movement: A very clean 30CH movement. Watch and chronograph function correctly. It's a little stiff when setting the time but winds and sets time very smoothly.

    There's is an error in my description, the hour markers are embossed/raised, not applied. Sorry for any confusion.
