🔥 Why This Watch Matters:

This isn’t just rare — it’s one of the most sought-after vintage chronographs of the 20th century.

What you’re looking at is a Longines 30CH flyback chronograph, reference 5967, crafted in 1950s and housed in a 38mm solid 18K yellow gold case — an unusually large and impressive size for its time. This is no reissue or reimagined tribute — this is the real deal, from the golden age of mechanical innovation. The watch has been fully restored and serviced so nothing to do for many years apart from enjoy !

Inside beats the revered Longines Calibre 30CH, the successor to the legendary 13ZN, featuring flyback functionality, a column-wheel design, and 18 jewels of mechanical poetry. These movements were fully in-house creations, not shared or outsourced, and they remain some of the most respected chronograph calibres ever produced.

Own a legend. Invest in heritage.

💼 Collector’s Note – Why It’s Investment Grade:

• 🔹 True Flyback Chronograph – Patented by Longines in 1936, the flyback function allows the chronograph hand to instantly reset and restart with a single push. A highly complex mechanical achievement.

• 🔹 Historic Movement – The 30CH is considered by many as one of the most beautifully engineered manual chronograph movements of its time, and still used as a benchmark.

• 🔹 Large 38mm Case – Exceptionally large for the early 1950s, giving this piece modern wrist presence while retaining vintage soul.

• 🔹 Increasing Demand – Early Longines chronographs have exploded in value, yet remain undervalued compared to Omega 321s and vintage Rolex pieces.

• 🔹 Flyback + 18K Gold = Rare Combo – Very few watches combine all of these features in one cohesive reference.

This piece isn’t just to be worn — it’s to be admired, preserved, and passed on. A true collector’s trophy that’s only getting rarer.
