Longines Vintage 1945 – 37mm – Stunning Champagne Dial – Small Seconds – Original Inspiration for Heritage 1945
Beautiful and exceptionally elegant Longines hand-wound watch dating from the mid-1940s, preserved in excellent condition.
The watch features a stunning champagne dial with subtle salmon tones, beautifully applied rose-gold-coloured numerals, elegant dauphine hands and a recessed small-seconds subdial at 6 o’clock.
With its generous 37mm diameter, unusually large for a dress watch of this period, it remains perfectly wearable today.
This historic Longines design served as the inspiration for the modern Longines Heritage 1945, shown in the last photograph for comparison only.
