·Close to a year ago I bought this watch that was in need of spare parts. And now I can finally wear it 😀
Reference 9020 2 conquest with caliber 290 inside. I do love longines casebacks!
According to the archives it was invoiced on 27 October 1960 to the company Terasse, at the time the agent for Sweden.

Yes, that's the one, I didn't kept it long, the dial was original when we checked it in person. didn't seems to have lume on it, it was only painted with a varnish on it.
I wanted to put back the correct hands, switch the crystal, but ended up letting it go to a collector who was really interested and who had all the parts.

··ΩF InvestiGatorNot sure about current value, but one thing I can tell is that either your father or grandfather had the watch redialled at some point in time.
Here is a picture of a Longines Ref. 5332 with what looks to be an original dial:
There is a short write up on the watch on this post:
https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/whats-selling-where--from-a-prized-universal-geneve-big-ey
The serial numbers are pretty close on both watches, both from 1944.
Hope this helps,

·Here's mine 😀
Nice to see one of the more complicated, modern Longines pieces; a nice chronograph with a moon phase and calendar function.

·Likely a caliber 23Z (the movement) from the mid-1950's. Case could either be gold-filled or solid 14K gold like this one: https://www.mywatchmart.com/listing/239049-fs-14k-longines-w-fancy-arched-concave-lugs-ca-1954/

·I have to be a man of my word, so here's my collection, minus the '68 Ultra-Chron that has been in the shop now for a lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ng time...🙁, but I'll throw in my last best pic of that one, too:
Here's the 50's crowd together (those on the left above):
'50 cal.22A, '50 22AS, '53 23Z, '59 19A 'spider' 😜
The early '60's grupo, starting with the 18k RG 'Grandaddy' Date@12 Flagship 🥰:
'61 cal.341, '61 350, '63 280, '63 30L, '?? 12.68Z
mid-60's whipper-snappers:
'66 cal.342, '66 D@6 343, '66 Pulsations 342 (can you say, 'rare'?), '67 345 Flagship 😁😁
Here's my '68 Ultra-Chron cal. 431, currently in extended rehab...
...and just because I know I'm not the only one here that loves a pretty 'back-side' or two 😉:
My Longines collection has at least one glaring omission, which I hope one day to rectify, and it's been a grail of mine for quite some time, now... and it is very aptly named; or, at least it will be once I get one!
PS: I feel I must give big credit and thanks to @ulackfocus , because without his help, my collection would not even be worth bearing mention 👍...
Wow what a collection! At least 5 there I would love to own! How about that Admiral Pulsometer too! I nearly bought one of these just this week but missed the end of the auction! D: Such a wonderful!
Well done for finding so many beautiful examples 😀
