An elegant survivor from the restrained luxury era of early 1960s Longines design.

This piece captures the transitional moment when mid-century dress watches began moving away from classical conservatism toward cleaner, more architectural forms. The contrast between the deep black center dial and textured silver outer chapter creates a distinctly modernist appearance, while the applied markers and small seconds layout preserve the refinement expected from Longines.

The watch is housed in a 10K white gold filled case measuring 31mm and remains fitted to its original white gold filled expansion bracelet — a detail rarely preserved together after more than half a century. The integrated monochromatic appearance gives the watch a strong period-correct elegance on the wrist.

Inside beats the respected Longines Caliber 370 hand-winding movement, visible in the photos. Beautifully finished and representative of the brand’s golden era, the movement reflects the level of refinement Longines was known for during the period.
