The signed crown is large enough to make adjustment a breeze. A stepped bezel holds a domed crystal. Its two-tone egg-shell dial has applied steel baton indexes, beveled edges creating a sophisticated look. Dauphine's steel hands with sub-seconds at 6 o’clock complete the dial. On the reverse, a machine turned screw-down case back. Inside an Automatic Longines Cal. 350, 17 Jewels, 19,800 beats per hour. Fitted on a 19mm blue leather strap with a signed buckle.


Personal Note

Another personal favourite of mine and one I kept myself for a fair while before bringing it to the store, sometimes you just have to enjoy them first. The condition and overall quality of this vintage piece are incredible, when I first saw it I was confident it was a 70s piece, I was very wrong! Massively underrated and should be worth a whole lot more in my opinion but for us collectors, it's a good thing they aren't... Yet!
