Very nice indeed. Just wondering, how high would it go...


We have a regular here who's taking a run at it. There's a pretty wide margin on these. If two or more people want it, a bidding war can push the price too high.

It does look pretty good, and I need a 19ASD.

Here you go! the seal of approval from our Longines expert! 馃槈

Stupid question and total OT: how come I don't get notified about replies on this topic (as a matter of fact, everywhere on this forum), even though I marked it so?!

Cal 13ZN do command a significant price premium, but even most 30CHs make better prices than that. I think the discount was for the gold plated case. The winner of the 30CH did well IMO.

That's eBay-speak for redial. 馃檮

More often eBay-speak for redial is "Stunning black dial, signed (your favorite manufacturer), in mint condition," +/- the word "original."

Nice Admiral HF...

Tony, I'm watching that and have an e-mail into Longines about it. The movement serial number dates the caliber 431 to around 1968 / 69 but the 16 million case serial number is post 1973 which would be 66xx territory. It's possible that St. Imier made this match but it's not very often you see a 4 or 5 year gap between case and movement serial numbers, especially after a manufacturer has switched to a different generation of the caliber in question.

Interesting, Dennis - thanks for the info. To play devil's advocate, how likely is it that the seller was able to find all of those parts in that condition? And why would parts that are in such fine condition have been orphaned?
