Product information
‘It’s the summer of ’69!’ And this watch translates that feeling… What a find, an amazing, 18k solid yellow gold Longines with its original box and papers! The dial carries the nickname ‘Confetti’, since this attractive dark brown dial features a grain structure, which in vintage Rolex collecting, is called ‘Confetti’. The case has been preserved in a magnificent way – the edges and chamfers are still incredibly sharp. Condition is one of the, if not the most important aspects when it comes to collecting vintage watches (or cars, or art, etc…). This time capsule leaves nothing to be desired then! With its original guarantee booklet, and beautiful oxblood-red Longines box, this is an object which you can just leave on your desk and look at it, and already enjoy it (when it’s not on the wrist of course…). The watch is strapped on a black alligator strap, and is complimented by an original Longines buckle. Furthermore, the mechanical in-house Longines movement is finished to a very high watch makers standard, and runs with amazing accuracy. The design of this watch is also something, you won’t see everyday. The Elipse-shaped dial is merged beautifully in a rectangular yellow gold case, which creates a magnificent wrist-presence. An undisputed eye-catches, for sure!
