This is a description of a vintage Longines watch from 1939. The watch features the Caliber 15.26 movement and is housed in a 37mm Staybrite case with a rare porcelain dial. The watch also has a popular Breguet number. The large movement, Caliber 15.26, was also used in Czech military models from the same era. The flat bezel of the Calatrava case gives it a sense of weight and substance unique to watches with large movements. The valuable porcelain dial has not faded over time and adds a fantastic touch to the watch. The porcelain dial is rare for a Calatrava case that holds a 15 line movement, and features a 24-hour display (in red) on the outer rail track. The beautiful design includes Breguet indexes and a blue steel Breguet needle. The Big Calatrava case enhances the overall beauty of the watch. An archive is included with the watch.
