Longines 2480-370 from early 60s. 10K gold filled case with all the markins you would expect to find from it. Keeps time as new, as new in pretty much anyway possible. No scratches or insciptions. Comes with black reptile band. I can take all the pictures you would ever want, but pictures from inside can take a while, since I need to visit my watchmaker (I don't want to scratch something this beatifull and well preserved only for quick photos).

This watch has been serviced recently! So it works as if should and should serve the new owner well beyond owners lifetime if cared after and serviced at times.

Trade value around 500USD. I'm after a nice dressy watch (NO gold, it's the reason this must go), or explorer styled watch (or something else compleatly, I have a weak spot for vintage chronos right now). I'm not a fan of date, so clean dials are prefered. Max size is around 40mm but I would prefer around 36 - 38mm. Not a fan of bracelet's either, but that's something I can change my self, how ever NO integrated bracelet watches. And money can travel both ways, I'm not too picky about the price of your offering, if I like it that is smile.gif

Pictures don't really do this beauty a justice and sorry about the dust, there's no scratches or dents anywhere!:

Still here, price ain't set in stone or anything, if I like it I like it smile.gif Currently I'm looking for, well nothing in particular but Military pieces / Divers / and Weirdos seem to do it. Maybe nice Omega Dynamic Geneve? Or something far out there.. Maybe dressier watch or not.

Here are few pics to prove my point about clean and well maintained movement. I bet you can't find a cal 370 in better condition!

Sorry about bit unfocused super close-up, I'm bit new with this macro thing.



And pictures of inside of caseback with case serial number showing:



There are also watchmaker marks with dates but I can't take pictures of them since they seem more like scratches in pics, I need bigger macro and better lights to do that kind of shots! (but they are readable in 30x loop)

I could also be talked into trading this into some nice ana-digi or digital watch (either in same price range or money traveling one way or an other). Ruggedness is required for digitals / quartz watches in my use smile.gif

Do you have any better shots of the face and back? Ones indoors perhaps?

Thanks

I have these and I can take more in the morning or right now with a flash and lights if artificially lighted quick photos are what your looking for (well these here now are quickies as well). Real studio pics I can take during weekend when I have time for them.









EDIT: Wait a hour and a half and I get some pics of the inside of the case back, case back, dial and movement.

Here you go, bit early I know but I thought to get it over with smile.gif Better pics after weekend if needed. Swirlies on caseback are from quick wipe to clean away dust, not scratches.









I can also take detail pics from parts you want to see better, just ask!
