Here is a fabulous and very rare, all original Longines dress watch from 1961. The silver dial is in very fine condition, with a golden Longines logo and golden strip hour markers, triple markers at 12 o’clock and double markers at the other poles. There are a few tiny marks scattered around the dial, none of which are visible to the naked eye. The golden fils hands are in very fine condition.

The slim solid 9K yellow gold case with the original crown and long, elegant lugs is in fine condition with some overall wear, mostly at the lugs. The solid 9K yellow gold case back is in fine condition with some overall wear. The case does not appear to ever have been polished. Note that the case was made in the UK by Baume & Company (the London branch of the Swiss firm Baume Frères), the exclusive importer and distributor of Longines watches in Britain and the British Empire, a business model which was common at the time.

The watch comes on an after market leather strap of good quality with the original Longines buckle in good condition.

Inside the watch, Longines’ high grade 19.4S movement beats strongly and accurately to within about +-10 seconds per day. The watch was fully serviced in October 2026 and comes with a 12 month warranty on its proper mechanical functioning.

This is a stunning dress watch, with that lovely dial in a slim, elegant gold case. It is a watch you will look forward to a chance of putting it on your wrist.

Our watches are delivered in a luxury wooden watch box, fully serviced with a 12 month warranty that covers the mechanical functioning of the watch under normal use. We offer 14 days full return rights and are very proud of our reputation for outstanding customer satisfaction.

NB! Note that we are based in Switzerland and that the buyer is responsible for any import fees their country may impose on a purchase from abroad. Ask us if you have any questions.
