1943 Longines 15.26 Czech Majetek
A recent pick-up, and one that’s getting a lot of use despite the unattractive Certina crown. I have a replacement from Zaf at Classic Watch so it’ll hopefully look a lot better after its first service. I’m sure I’ll get the hands relumed at the same time too ! Here’s the extract from Longines:
The original serial number 6'643'351 identifies a wristwatch in stainless steel bearing the reference 3582 and was called “Majetek”. It is fitted with a Longines manually wound mechanical movement, caliber 15.26. It was invoiced on 17 November 1943 to the company Weinstabl, which was at that time our agent for Czechoslovakia and was dedicated to the Czechoslovakian Army.

The Longines Majetek is an excellent watch which deserves some attention. I can't wait to see the final outcome once you get it sorted ( crown and hands ). Bravo!
Here is another one I saw in Paris: With its two cousins, Lemania and Eterna... Best, Nicolas ...
A beautiful trio !
It was the chance purchase of a Lemania that first introduced me to the Majeteks, and I’m very glad that the Longines is going to be relatively straight forward to return to “original” (given that my Lemania has been sitting in a drawer for almost two yea...
Unfortunately that turns out to be easier said than done.
I’ve heard other guys gave up after searching for five years.
