CASE & BRACELET
The 28-millimeter sterling silver case gracefully shows its near-century of life. The lugs are a beautifully curved shape with just the right amount of length for the size of the case. The watch also features a hunter case back giving a view of the fantastic, manually wound Longines Cal. 11.84n movement.
DIAL & HANDS
This Longines shows off a gorgeous railroad-style dial with thick, radium, Arabic numerals. The hour markers sit on top of a beautifully aged midsection of the dial, having turned a fantastic multi-shade of cream and brown. This surrounds a grey inner dial and is surrounded in turn by a black and white outer minute track. The dial also shows off a small sub-seconds counter at 6 o'clock and beautifully aged radium cathedral hands. The minute hand is missing most of the lume in its window nearest the hand stack.
ACCESSORIES
None. The watch is keeping time, previous service history is unknown.
