The condition is impressive for a 120 year-old watch. I see no obvious cracks in the enamel dial and the movement appears quite clean and unmarred. This would have been an expensive piece when new so maybe it did not see much use. As with many Longines movements, the caliber 13.56 came in different forms. This example is especially nice with a swan-neck spring for the regulator, a screwed chaton for the center wheel pivot, and a polished steel cap for the escape wheel cock. The Ryrie Bros branding is also a neat historical detail. Thanks for sharing.
