It is a Longines Conquest Calendar, an iconic masterpiece.

In recent years, the value of antique Longines from the 1950s has been rising, and the number of existing pieces is decreasing.

A well-known Tokyo retailer was selling one for ¥298,000, so I believe this price is quite a bargain.

Experts even say, “Longines went overboard and nearly went under” – that's how serious Longines was about craftsmanship in the 1950s, surpassing even Rolex and Omega.

While cost-controlled models increased from the 1960s onward, this is an early model from the “over-the-top” period of the 1950s. lol

It features the iconic Longines automatic movement (19AS).

The silver sunray dial radiating outward and the three-dimensional upright indices are exceptionally beautiful, exuding classic presence.

The cursive logo is also a design unique to that era.

The case back retains the enamel fish medallion, a hallmark of early models.

This condition is quite rare, making it a highly collectible piece.

【Condition】

・Case shows minor age-related scratches (appropriate for an antique; we deliberately avoided polishing)

・Leather strap is non-original (includes a bonus brown crocodile leather strap purchased for ¥9,000)

・Genuine crown

・Genuine Longines buckle

Important: Overhaul (OH) required

(Crown detached, movement non-functional)

OH estimates from several shops averaged around ¥28,000. The watch body is priced significantly lower to reflect this.

▫️The exterior condition is quite good, so we recommend having it overhauled for continued use.

▫️The dial exhibits a natural, evenly aged patina from years of wear, offering a classic antique charm. (※No uneven discoloration; the actual dial is closer to the appearance in the third photo)

▫️Its size (approximately 35mm) is not found in current models, making it versatile for both suits and casual wear.

▫️Highly recommended for those seeking a model that captures the essence of Longines' golden era.
