Title: Solid 18k Gold 24j Longines Conquest Serviced
Description: A heavy high grade watch in solid 18k yellow gold. The signed screw back case rates about 85-90% with some small nicks here and there. You can see that the blue enamel is still intact with a little wear around the edges. The original dial is about 95% with the only age seen at the very edge, here and there. Developed in 1958, the caliber 291 is the successor to the lower end 19AS. I say lower end because the 291 has an improvement using twin click wheels and spring less locking anchors for the switching principle of the automatic winding mechanism. Also, of note is a two spoke Glucydur screw balance, Nivarox hairspring, 19,800 bph, Incabloc shock resistance and direct center seconds. It has 24 jewels with a 45 hour power reserve. It has been fully serviced, oiled and timed and keeps nearly perfect time too showing little error on the timing machine. Old style quick-set which means one can change the date easily by rotating the hour hand past midnight then backwards to nine then forward again past midnight. A plain strap is attached but you may have your choice of brand new Hadley Roma straps, not including the gator. Measures 35 mm wide (not including the crown) x 40 mm long x 13 mm thick. {$895} Item #SCH306-2673 SOLD RS
