Watch: Gents Longines Jamboree Wrist Watch 1958

The watch has a 17-jewel Longines calibre 280 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 10815995 which dates it back to 1958. The watch measures 35mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel and the front and sides are in good condition. The back of the watch has a couple of scratches where it looks like a tool has slipped in the past. The case back is signed Longines Jamboree to the outside and it has the Longines wings logo on the inside. It also states that the watch is waterproof but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture. The lens has light marking but is very acceptable. The signed dial is in its original finish, there are little marks if viewed through a jeweller’s loupe. The minute hand is a later replacement. A new leather strap has been fitted. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland).
