    Very nice movement ConElPueblo!
    I think Longines and Cyma made during that time several high end movements that are still underestimated. A real pleasure to look at and to service!

    Nothing fancy, but a timepiece from my dad made it special.

    New acquisition very cheap (almost all my acquisitions!). Bought for the nice movement for the most part, but also liked the stainless case (as opposed to gold-filled) and the original crown. Looks better in person than photos and will clean up nicely with some case work and a new crystal. 1956 or so given serial number.

    Sorry for stalking these older posts, I'm fairly new to the vintage watch collecting, and one thing I find myself doing is trawling through the old Omega and Longines forum for research. Stumbled across your Longines 1954 automatic, just wanted to say how much of a gorgeous looking piece you have there, simply stunning, and thank you for sharing...almost three years ago but oh well! :)

    Is it redialed: Yes; Is it a watch that you bought a few years ago when you had no clue about vintage Longines: Yes; Are you happy while wearing it: Yes...

    If only I had of heard this before dismissing some great pieces price wise and condition, yet with a redial! :(

    My latest Longines Heritage 1969 watch. An excellent masterpiece period.

    Well I collect tool watches so this recent find of a 1945 Longines 12.68N BOAC navigators watch even with unusual dial ticked all the boxes for me

    Since I've seen this japanese 70s ad about Ultra-Chron chronometer, I decided I need to have all the SS version pictured
    (at that time I had only one)
    Mission accomplished now, then I need another excuse for the next purchase
