Inside is Longines famous in-house 30L movement that bested Omegas of that time period. Considered by many to be Longines best hand wound movement. It is immaculate and keeping excellent time.
The case is original and unpolished and shows age appropriate wear. I decided not to polish it. You can see the attachment points of the lugs and the brushed mid case which I believe proves it originality. This is how it was made so I believe this is how it should stay.
Acrylic crystal is new and is clean and clear without visible marks
Case is oversized at 37mm without crown and is solid 18kt rose gold.
The serial number dates the watch to 1960
wonderful and sleek watch!
What a great time piece :-)
I love how you have this on a "GUSTAV KLIMT " in a art book !! and again great watch!!

I love Klimt (one of the reasons we traveled to Vienna) and thought it was a bit of a play on all the gold he used...thanks for noticing Sean
Your very welcome Tony!!! That would be a great visit Vienna to see Klimt!!
