This is a very attractive and rare vintage Longines watch. It features a factory-original, well-aged salmon tone dial, which is something you seldom see on vintage Longines from this era. The watch has a professionally serviced Longines calibre 23M manual wind movement with the serial number 6506597, dating it to 1942. This serviced movement is in excellent condition.
The solid stainless steel case is in its original, unpolished condition. The case model is 22333 and measures 33.3 mm across (excluding the crown) by 42 mm from lug tip to lug tip. It will come with a brand-new crystal, and the crown is unsigned and original to the watch. Additionally, it includes a brand new 16 mm genuine leather strap.
Wrist sizes depicted in the photo are 6 inches. This watch is a smaller size, suitable for someone with a smaller wrist or for a Longines collector looking to add a rare find to their collection. Well-preserved vintage Longines like this one are scarce in today’s market.
