isn't this an elegant dial and cool case back?

Gorgeous. I know nothing about longines, when does that date from?

 

I'm told from 1959...Flagship 1403, caliber 380

 

Another watch I miss - but not quite as much for this reason:




Angel, you do realize that if it was a manual wind caliber 30L or 30LS that would have never left NJ, right? Yours, IMO, has the best dial configuration of any Flagship. Couldn't pass it up when it was offered to me, but couldn't keep it as it wasn't the watch that was in the plan.

 

I'm making room in my boxes to receive the one pictured above! he, he .... BTW, how's the case back of this one?

 

Now I know where half of Dennis' collection is going. Nice pickup Angel.

 

I'm trying to soften Steve to let go his IWC....I need to modify my tactics....

 

Don't hold your breath on that. The 341 is in-house, and the only thing I like more than a solid gold case is a date window anywhere other than 3:00.

Very nice:

Yeah, uh...... he's less easily persuaded than I am. His caliber 89 is in just as good condition as yours is though. It might be better for you to search for a different caliber, like a subdial caliber 83 or 88 for some variety.

 

damn! I like these golden ships....

 

It's my favorite caseback.

 

We don't see many of these in decent shape... indeed, a nice specimen to have

Yet another watch that may have to go on the list.........too many watches.....too little time..(actually money!)
