Longines All Guard 1950s Black Tropical Dial

[slique12]

Dear All,

Up for sale today is the black dial version of the Longines All Guard from the early 1950s. The All Guard preceded the more commonly seen Conquest and is almost identical to the Conquests of the same era, but without the gold medallion back. Very beautiful original black dial that is starting to turn tropical with applied Longines wings logo, large fluted silver indexes, inner seconds track and original aged luminous dots and tapered dauphine hands.

Highlights:
- Black dial that is turning tropical

Lowlights:
- Crown is a replacement
- Lume is missing from the hands and some hour markers

More details:
Year: 1950s
Case Size: 35.2mm w/o crown
Movement: Original Longines 17-jewel caliber 19AS automatic, service history unknown but keeps reasonable time

I’m asking $800 USD net which will also include 2 day insured shipping within CONUS. Other countries at cost. Paypal, Transferwise or bank wire only.

Watch and I are in the US and I can ship worldwide (with some exceptions). No returns please with the exception made above regarding the originality of the movement.

I saw this one in person recently and the photos do not so this dial justice. It’s a real beauty.
