This Longines 8888 from 1962 operates from a Calibre 30LK manual mind movement, this 17-jewel movement operates at 18,000 beats per hour and includes an Incabloc shock absorber
This Longines watch is working in excellent order having just passed through our watchmaker.
Crafted from stainless steel, the case measures 35mm in diameter, a generous size for its time. It features distinctive facets on the outer edges of the lugs and a chamfered bezel, enhancing its elegant profile. Fitted to a generic dark brown almost maroon coloured generic leather strap and steel buckle.
Off white coloured dial that has aged and discoloured to the bottom edges and beside the 3 but then that is what you would expect of a watch over 60 years old. Silvered hands and line hour markers with the subsidiary seconds dial above the 6.

Smith's Empire
Located in London, GB
This delightful Smiths Empire is amazing condition considering we believe it to be from the 1950s making it about 70 odd years old.
The Smiths Empire is presented with its original box.
Stainless steel 33mm case, plexiglass and fitted to a leather strap with steel buckle. Some fading around the number 8 but we think this just adds to its character.
An incredible rare find that you’re unlikely to see another of, its available now.
