This 1959 Longines 2351 is really special as it is in near NOS (new old stock) condition. Have you ever wondered what new watches looked like from the 1950-1960s?–well here’s your answer. This watch has truly never been polished, and possibly never worn. The watch features a stunning silver dial with steel shark-tooth markers, a unique second track design, lume markers (lume is not functional as expected), dalphine steel hands, and a mind blowing near NOS steel case with lines so sharp you could chop vegetables with it. The watch has a new acrylic crystal, freshly cleaned dial and hands, a new Barton sailcloth strap, and a beautiful Longines 23ZS hand wind movement that has been overhauled and restored to OEM specs. The watch is in beautiful restored condition as per our extensive restoration and authentication process.

This Longines features the beautifully decorated Longines 23ZS hand wind movement. The beat rate for this watch is 18,000 vph. The watch is 34mm in diameter and is suited for men who prefer smaller classic sized watches, or ladies who want a larger watch to wear. The dial, movement, case, crown, buckle are all signed Longines. This watch has new caseback and crown gaskets and combined with the new crystal, this watch features mid-range water resistance.

This watch is a real time-capsule and won’t last long.

As with all our restored pieces we sell, this 1959 Longines comes with our zero-headache warranty.
