Description: This classic, Art Deco inspired, 1964, mid century modern, Mad Men era gentleman’s wristwatch is typical of the smaller, beautiful tank and tonneau style watches manufactured for gentlemen in the 1940’s, 1950’s and ‘60’s. This model Longines Wittnauer and is especially desirable among collectors due to its simplicity and elegance. The strap is 13/16” so it’s wider than most from the era giving a bigger overall appearance. This watch has been fully serviced cleaned and oiled (its got a new mainspring, balance and crystal) and is ready to wear with a new old stock crocodile calf strap, new old stock acrylic crystal and new spring bars. The Swiss Made movement is a 17 Jewel 10S movement completely refurbished and serviced with a new mainspring and new complete balance. The movement appears original to the watch. This watch appears to have the original (not refinished) black enamel dial with bright white 10K gold filled hour markers and hands. The dial, case, and movement are all marked Longines and the case is 10K gold filled with minor surface scuffs but no significant loss of gold. The case back is stainless steel. Most of my watches come from estates and I make sure every one is something I’d be proud to wear or give as a gift or I don’t offer it for sale. I work with an experienced watchmaker on the ones I’m offering for your consideration now. I stand behind my work. Please check my other listings from makers like Hamilton, Bulova, Longines, Wittnauer, Tissot, Gruen, Jules Jorgensen, Hampden, Paul Breguette, Benrus, Seiko, Wyler, Rouan, Favre-Leuba, Clinton, Eterna, Wakman, Lord Elgin, Omega and more. Please look closely at the photos as they are part of the description, never consider these watches waterproof unless otherwise stated, wind mechanical watches carefully and please appreciate that I’m a recently retired Soldier with a passion for watches… I’m not a big box reseller so consider your selection carefully as I only accept returns if a watch isn’t running properly (that could only happen due to rough handling during shipping) and NOT because a buyer decides it’s just not their “thing” after it arrives. In short, be fair with me. I’ve been doing business on eBay for almost 20 years and enjoy top ratings. Thank you for your consideration and happy shopping!
