Watch: Silver Longines Wrist Watch 1928

The watch has a signed Longines calibre 13.34 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is also signed B&Co, for Baume & Co, importers of Longines watches to the UK and the Commonwealth. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has an indentation. The watch measures 35mm diameter excluding the fixed wire lugs and winding crown. The case is hallmarked for London (import mark) 1933, with a sponsor’s mark for Arthur Baume of Baume & Co. The case is in lovely condition with just the odd small mark, nothing serious at all. The glass lens is in lovely condition (white reflection showing in the photo). The dial is signed with the Longines. The dial looks good to the naked eye… if viewed through a magnifying loupe, there is a very faint hairline running from the centre to number 7. Breguet style hands and numbers. A new leather strap has been fitted. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland).
