·Bezel,lugs and size (37,5) make this beauty definitely stunning in my (honest ) opinion.

··ΩF InvestiGatorOne Longines case reference that seems to be what you are looking for is Ref. 7035. However, it seems that these watches do not have the word(s) "Swiss" or "Swiss Made" on the dial. That makes it difficult to discern originality of the dials.
Here are threads on our forum that talk about some of the watches to which you refer:
https://omegaforums.net/threads/1950s-longines-calatrava.36802/
https://omegaforums.net/threads/lady-luck-delivers-an-early-longines-chronometre.11157/
However, there is a lot of debate and disagreement over the originality of the dials on the first post.
The second post shows a fantastic 36mm Longines Chronometer owned by a member here. That one also does not have "Swiss" at the bottom of the dial, but it looks fully original to me.
I'm not sure how to tell if dials are original on these references.

Speaking of which, I don't know how many dibs you have on that incredible chronometer @Tony C. but just tack me on to the bottom of the list.

·I have one from the (late) '40s, but it has a complication.
ref. 5412; can anyone tell me the caliber?
I think it should be a 12.68ZQ, where Q stands for quantieme. They started making them in 1942-1943. A rare beauty in incredible shape! They had several dial variations, including one black with a white date ring.

·And some more , even Imho (strictly), about the dial affair. On Longines watches every dial is potentially “repaint suspects “. The most bleedings fights I remember was about longines dial’s. So : the first pic I post was (quite clearly) a repaint one. But especially for the oldest ones, this must bee a false problem, if you just want to live in peace. It is like the 6263 Paul Newman: no ones could be above suspicions... so the dilemma is : pay a lot To be sure at 99% or ...take it easy. And pay a decent price for a wearable watch (like the second I post).
So: what I’m looking for is 35mm or more (@Fost : I’m definitely not a competitor 😁) with original OR well done dial.
I’m looking for some references to seeking
