·The condition! 🥰 A really great find, congrats. I have a 6T with very similar numerals in the outer track. Do you know the approximate serial number of yours? Mine is 7'205'xxx.
Thanx! It's a 10.68N in the 7,38 mill range. Wear on the case and crown shows
it had been used alot. But the dial and hands are lovely😀

·Hi
I would like to offer here two pictures of a rather clean example of an Ultra-Chron model.
This is caliber 431 (the date version of the 430, the first commercial 36000 bph movement for Longines), running a model 7827-3 from 1968.
and in daylight:

·My dad’s early 1950’s Longines. Purchased during a holiday to Italy it promptly broke/would not wind, he effectively wrote it off leaving it in a drawer but I would still often admire and wear it as a kid. I always loved the separate sub dial seconds and believe this influenced my own later choice for the De Ville Power Reserve with sub dial seconds. I recently plucked up the courage to just ask my dad outright if I could have his old Longines, without hesitation he found it up for me. I have since had it serviced to once more working order. I tried to return it to him but he insists I now keep it. I wear it and will also later pass it onwards to my son as part of my own humble and continuing collection.

·Back from repair! With thanks to @DirtyDozen12 for flagging it, a bit of a punt but a very pretty one— and 103 years old. It was born in 1916 as a sterling silver wristwatch and still is.
This is a lovely watch and especially so because of the lovely story that comes with it.

·Isn't this one already in the museum since 2018? I remember it was there back in May 2018. Nice to hear from you here BigBug1964. Your two watches at the museum are lovely.
Thanks, think so,
and about eighty more of mine will be in the Museum soon.
What's about Your Baby, as it would fit perfectly to my former #335 and #581?
I'm pretty sure, that Walther is keen to get it.
Have fun in Geneva!
