This exquisite Longines wristwatch from the 1930s embodies the stylistic refinement of Art Deco. With its rectangular stainless steel case, stepped profile and elegant dial design, it is a wonderful example of the watchmaking art of the period.
This watch was originally designed as a precision timepiece for doctors - the easy-to-read small seconds dial was used for simple pulse measurement, earning it the nickname "Doctor's Medical Watch". Inside is the hand-wound Longines 9.32 caliber, renowned for its longevity, precision and robustness.
Longines began producing rectangular cases as early as the 1910s, and by the 1920s had established itself as a leading brand for unusual case shapes and dial designs. This model from the following decade is a masterful continuation of this tradition, with fine proportions and a pronounced aesthetic balance.
With a width of 19 mm and a length of 39 mm, the watch is elegant, understated and expressive on the wrist.
This Longines is a piece of design history that reflects the charm of the 1930s.
