I'd like to sell my Longines Ref 6591 (movement 9671195, approx. 1954). It looks like the watch mainly has storage marks, as if it had hardly been worn. It hasn't been polished, at least I don't see any of the typical signs of this. An original Longines clasp and a pair of very old spring bars are also included. Both were already with the watch when I bought it. To me, it almost looked as if it had just come from the store. The only thing about the watch that doesn't look perfect is the dial, on which, with a little luck and depending on the angle of the light, you can see a fingerprint.
I don't wear the 6591 because it's actually too good for that.

Case: 35 mm, exceptionally well preserved for its age, a few small scratches, very clean shine, beautiful, solid shape with a little coin edge appeal because the bezel is so wide. In my opinion, a great example of how much craftsmanship has been lost in case manufacturing. The number “116” is stamped on both the back of the lug and the screw-down case back. The winding crown is probably original, very grippy, not worn.

Dial: Almost like new (see above, fingerprint...), almost all lume plots undamaged. The condition of the hands is also original.

Movement: Almost like new, runs well. Guaranteed no hassle with finding replacement parts—if you ever need them. For my taste, an extremely beautiful construction with a large screw balance that oscillates very lively.

Glass: Unfortunately from current production.

Accessories: The (probably) original clasp and spring bars.
