Yaaayyy our own watch auction embryo

 

How interesting.... Will be paying attention.

 

This Longines dial might be valuable to somebody here.

Nice, elegant, apparently unmolested 30L. Not sure what the seller will take, but he's not out of line with the BIN price. I would ask for a photo of the case back, though.

Here is your case back Tony. Looks pretty darn pretty to me.

 

Looks like this one, right down to the serial number.

The dent at 9 looks less pronounced, or fixed. This was also on our own Sale forum.

This one is going to be an extremely popular listing. Have never seen such a diamond dial, personally I think it is a bit... fugly.



Also, why is that date window... white?

 

Your being kind calling that fugly! Wow that's so bad.

 

ewww
You really recommend that one?

 

Looks like a nice caliber 280:

It's a bit of a gamble with no movement shot, but the dial looks decent and the case has much of it's original finish still present.

Not anywhere near top condition and I see the watch is set to 8:20 for a reason but this is a beautiful dial in need of a good home (case).

hope I don't get barked at for this one. HA

These particular solid gold markers are pretty rare on "entry level" Longines. With the correct case in clean condition this is a $500 to $600 watch all day long. Night, too.

tell the seller to knock $35 off so you can source the correct crown.

 

For those interested: 18k gold Conquest.

It does say automatic on the dial...

 

He did originally call it the Conquisidor.....

it's an early model too - late 50's judging by the case back style.

 

Without pics of the movement, the seller could be telling the truth that movement has been replaced by a "kinetic quartz"!

 

Oh Dear Gawd, you just gave me flashbacks to the Seamaster Melbourne XVI that had a quartz movement stuffed into it.

 

Say What???? You got to be joking??
