    Sold
    Vintage Longines Tank Watch
    10% Iridium + Platinum Case (stamped on case back)
    Original Dial with Diamond Exploding Numerals-12, 3, 6, 9 + Indices
    Original Faceted Crystal-nice condition
    Original 17 Jewel Longines Manual Wind Movement
    Original Hands
    Watch man thought the hands and metal surrounding the numerals + indices
    are White Gold
    Approx 43 mm lug to lug x 25 mm including crystal
    Comes on a used vintage leather strap-not original to the watch
    Recently serviced by my watch man-running + keeping good time (no papers-
    my watch man does not use paper billing-all cash and no receipts)
    Not going to open the watch-movement was just serviced and guaranteed to
    be as stated
    A few issues:
    Small chip upper left side of crystal
    1 of the male/female bars has been replaced by a spring bar-see pictures
    Original Dial has some faded/worn out "tracks"-see pictures
    "Longines" on dial has faded out and disappeared
    Lugs a bit "chewed" by the metal band I found on it-see pictures
    Overall faces up very well and looks nice on the wrist-fading on dial not so noticeable when on the wrist
    I consulted a few older collectors and they value this type of Longines at $1200 when one can find this model
    Due to the above "issues" and the recent service I am valuing it at $599 including Priority Mail USPS delivery
    to the US. Payable via Paypal
    I will send tracking number after mailing
    If you'd like to add a cool, unusual watch to your collection, here it is
    Interesting trades considered
