Hello Longines collectors.
I know that the sei tacche is a popular model from the 1940s, but I looked through hundreds of photos and couldn't find a dial with Breguet numerals in the 1930s style. I don't specialize in vintage Longines, that's why I come to you. I will be grateful for every entry on the topic.

Very uncommon, and small, but they were produced.

Thank you for your post. Your watch is the second one, apart from mine, that I've seen with this dial. The first one was gold and women's. Maybe there will be more? Too bad mine isn't Tre Tacche.

There are more, but not many.

I will contact Longines for Extract, they apparently have a very detailed archive and maybe I will get an answer as to what type of dial was in this watch when it left the factory.

I think they tend to be US market,
Which is why the sei tacche in the OP worries me a bit, as I would prefer it to be a US marked movement (LXW).

the small tre tacche linked by @Tony C. is now mine, by the way, and the rectangular watch I’m also posting is now in the hands of an estimeed forum member, or rather his wife 😀

The search is over!!! I found the same watch, even the marking on the back case is the same. It took me some time, it must be a really rare example. Thank you to everyone involved in this topic for all the leads.

This combination with the gold numbers and hands really pops. That’s nice.
