Magnificent. Have you obtained an extract of archive and may I ask what the serial number is?

 

Maybe invoiced to France, as per "Suisse" at 6 o'clock.

 

Recent arrival - a 35.5mm 104 reference Flagship

 

Hi,
Yes I did get confirmation from Longines Archives. Can confirm details tomorrow.
Here is a couple of pictures showing the caseback number I haveon record. It is cal 13.33.
Cheers Russell.

 

Very nice and thanks, I was just curious what year it was sold to what country.

 

Will advise tomorrow.
Cheers Russell.

 

very cool watch, would you call this a minute recorder? Perhaps could be used as a doctors watch? Dial is amazing..

 

thanks.
This one is just a first gen, four hander, before the minute recorder (fifth hand) was introduced, its serial is the earliest Ive seen from July 1938, sent to Baume in London. Here’s the Longines cheat sheet on the 12.68z stop

 

Hi larry,
Great information, really appreciate it. Starting a small collection of Longines chronographs and still in the learning phase. Information such as you replied with is an enormous help.
Best

Put it on today as your post reminded me it’s in the drawer. 1948 14kt Gold with some interesting lugs.
LTC saw it and said that’s nice, I would wear that....

 

Hi,
Here is the Longines extract information. It is actually 33.6mm excluding the crown in diameter.
Cheers Russell.

 

Thanks for posting it

 

Not a problem. Does that tell you anything?

 

In this instance nothing specific, just when I see a nice Longines watch I just like to know what year and country it was sold to... thanks again for sharing it, it’s really lovely

 

Hard to keep my eyes off my 1956 23ZSD

 

I’d happily give you half a like

 

i don’t see it

 

You’ve only posted half a watch



Here’s the full face

 

Haha I know, I meant I don’t see the 50% like you gave me
