Unusual to have 3 Longines threads on HoMe at the same time, so why not make it 4? Here's a vintage piece that I still find enthralling...
Manual wind, 14k case so not their haute de gamme range but still a thing of beauty and much appreciated.
I might be pursuaded to take the back off if I get enough dollar bills thrown on the stage...
:-p
(seriously, I don't have ready access to my JAX...)

Where's the stage? I am curious to see the inside of this beauty!
Longines was such a great brand! Don't tempt me too much, I have enough material to launch a 5th thread. ;) So, you open it or what? :) :) :) Best, Thomas. Nicolas
Perfectly lovely! Looks like yours is
contemporaneous with mine (1950s). I bought this for the lugs, and the dial was AFAIK original but in awful condition, so I had it cleaned and repainted. I'll bet your look just as good inside! ...
Nice one...
Hello, Steve, nice to see you again! As Tony already posted below, I'd guess the above one will more likely have a 30L inside - not that nice curves, more technical, but still a nice one as well. Is your case french or south american - or swiss Longines? ...
Love vintage Longines
Here is mine. The movement is not very special, but the dial certainly is. ...
