Cool piece @BlueHands and welcome to the forum

Unusual case design indeed, would love to see those lugs flex with
a period correct open end strap

 

Thank you! This a a one-piece strap, that fits well, I find, but there are still other ideas and I'm always on the run
for nice straps, you'll know that ....

 

Bought 4 straps here, well pleased with all.

 

Old and lovely. Delivered to USA in 1926

 

Very nice! Dibs if it is silver
But not too soon because my budget has been quite stretched on non watch expenses

 

I am going to say 14K gold-filled by Wadsworth.

 

This Ultra-Chron today

 

This one yesterday.

 

Very, very nice ...

 

The last days well-known Ref. 5150, nice Radium-colours

 

not really a longine but I really dig the patina. Perfect size for my wrist.

 

@Radiumpassion & @LarryG
Congrats to these beauties, love them!

Ref. 5411

 

Ref. 3071, Cal. 20,28, February 1936

 

Really nice one! What does Extract tell you, where it was invoiced?

 

SFL - Société Français Longines

 

doesn’t get onto my wrist but my wife won’t succumb to my request to photograph on her wrist. Palladium case, 4LL movement (tiny works of art, the small movements imo), $90. The case in palladium is worth $250 pure melt weight (palladium worth more than gold or platinum by weight for many reasons). Just received and needs some basic cleaning and a service but my wife likes these small watches because her wrist is so petite.

 

Woah, very neat! Possibly an engraved silver dial with enameled numerals? Do you know the serial number? Surely the price when new was similar. Palladium has shot up recently. Thanks for sharing.

 

ahh... wish were what you describe but I fear newer than that. Serial # on movement puts it at 1947. Broke out the loupe and dial appears painted. Silver and enamel would’ve been way too cool. @bubba48 seems to have the eye to find the real cool older pieces. Sorry about pics but I haven't figured out how to do any macro shots with my old iphone!
