Up for sale is a very unique Men's Longines mechanical wristwatch. The watch dates from the 1940/50s. What makes this piece unusual is the fact that the strap is bonded with the case, there one piece, normally a watch from this era would have a simple leather strap. The case and strap appear to be made of a base metal with a chrome plating on top. The case and strap itself are in very goof condition, they may have the odd imperfection as to expect from a watch of this e...ra. The watch appears to have its original acrylic crystal in good condition, remaining nice and clear with no cracks or heavy scratches, there may be the odd imperfection. The watch is running well on its 17 jewel signed Longines 8LN movement, keeping good time. The watch has a wonderful gem/diamond covered dial, in very nice condition for its age. The case has no makers mark, common on a lot of watches from this era, companies often having to out source cases to fit there supply and demand. A very scarce model of a Vintage Longines.
