Warning: A very dangerous picture of Longines Big Weems.
It was some 6 years ago, during a GTG in Paris. Some serious collectors came with some heavy stuff: Longines big Weems ( 48 mm ) and not only one!
The killing one? They are all killers, but the one on the left is... New Old Stock, with its box and papers! A time capsule.

Beautiful outside AND inside...
That's the kind of stuff I am hunting... For years, now.
Best,
Nicolas

underrated
really underrated watch. can you imagine if the exact same watch had Patek on the dial?
Longines, a real manufacture
offered a very broad array of watches to his very diverse clientele, not the luxury segment (PP) It offered luxury watches, watches for the adept of sports, the military, the scientist, pilots, explorers, navigators and, naturally, the men and women on th...
Damn! An NOS piece?
That's something you definitely don't see everyday! What's the date written on the papers if I may ask?
Stunning group dear Nicolas!! Guess first shot is too much for my feeble horological heart!!...
... and a NOS watch with case and papers? Wow!! What a wonderful collection reunited in that GTG!! Must be really impresive viewing them together in the metal!! Superb shots which I thank you so much: A true joy for the eyes! Abrazos mi amigo! Abel PS: Lo...
