    Up for sale from my private collection is this very nice oversized Longines with original Longines paperwork and buckle

    Longines Ref. 4914

    - Serial no. 9678... dates back to ca. 1955, sold in 1958 in former Rhodesia
    - Cal. 12.68z
    - Original dial, never refinished
    - Oversized solid steel case (37.2 mm without crown)
    - Applied rose gold markers and hands
    - Signed original Longines crown

    Dial and Hands

    Clean original dial, warm and evenly patinated. Faceted applied rose gold markers and dauphine hands.

    Case

    Sharp 37 mm solid steel case with minor wear, no heavy dings etc.

    Movement

    Clean Longines in-house manual caliber ref. 12.68z. The watch winds and sets very smooth and the movement is running strong, but I have no information about it's service history.

    Price and Shipping

    What makes this Longines so special is the fact that it comes in unmolested condition with original dial, guarantee card and original buckle. It was originally sold in 1958 in the city of Bulawayo. Bulawayo is the second biggest city of Zimbabwe, but at that time the country was still a British colony known as Rhodesia. The original owner was Mr. "Dr. A. Kennedy". Well, somehow it found it's way into my collection and now I am selling to make some room for new pieces.
    My asking is 1.099 EUR (OBO) net to me. Bankwire or transferwise is preferred, paypal please add 4%. I will ship worldwide from Germany. We can discuss shipping options like EMS or parcel services like UPS,TNT, DHL...

    Feel free to check for my references here on OF. Please take a look at the pictures they are considered as part of the description. No returns please, unless the condition of the watch is grossly misrepresented.

    Please answer to this thread or PM me if you have any questions. I can provide additional pictures on request.

    Thanks for looking and many thanks to OF for the possibility to offer.
