Longines
For sale is a Swiss Made Longines Record men's watch with reference number 504042, presumably dating back to the mid 1970s. The Record brand has been around since the early 1900s, and released numerous highly regarded watches before being acquired by Longines in 1961. This specific Longines "Record" watch features an intriguingly shaped case design with beefy lugs and an outer diameter of around 35mm. The dial on this particular example comes in a silver sunburst finish with large raised black/polished steel indices. Stick shaped polished steel hands with black and lumed inlay indicate the time, and a date window can be found at 3 O'clock. The crown is original and features the Record "R" logo. Inside the watch beats a highly regarded ETA 2622 automatic movement, finished in a stunning rose gold and with signed "Record" rotor. The movement was entirely disassembled, cleaned and lubricated, and is accurately keeping time. The watch comes fitted to a brand new dark brown leather strap with generic stainless steel buckle.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, which is evident by quite a bit of wear marks to its case. All wear marks are relatively superficial though, with no serious scratches or dents. The case is unpolished and therefore in original shape. The dial is in really decent condition still given its age, with some minor uniformly spread specks. The crystal is brand new, and a perfect fit. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch has been freshly serviced with eye for authenticity, and is working perfectly. Comes as a watch only: sadly no original box or paperwork are accompanying this piece.
Your new timepiece will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance.
