Another watch, another dream: Vintage Longines 13 ZN Ref 4974.
Ok, there are some scratches on the plexy, but what a marvel!
The step bezel, the 37 / 38 mm case, the dial and... The movement of course! Every good collector should have a 13 ZN and / or a 30 CH in his collection.
This one is in my dreams.
Best,
Nicolas
Certainly. ;) Alas they are super hard to find and fund. So, Fate will most probably help you in the choice.
Absolute marvel !!! What are the differences between 13ZN & 30CH, it seems that for some 13ZN is the best...?
The 13 ZN came first. About the technical differences, I don't know, but they are very close.

Nico: why isn’t there a Longines forum? Such posts of marvels from such a storied manufacture belong in their own forum.
I’m sure that you can do something about that 😉
That would not be a bad idea. But this would require some help from the brand ( I mean they should answer to our questions ), and a moderator dedicated to it.
I’ve got the perfect moderator candidate for the job.
As for swatch group’s short-sightedness…
I’d like to believe in WPS’ might in the watch fora world, and that Longines would have to pay us attention and play ball once they notice that the collector
with hundreds of [insert highly-regarded brand name] also owns vintage or modern Longines, wears them with pride, and would like to discuss the pieces with similar-minded folk.
