New Arrivals: 1965 Longines 2638-370 Dress Manual
This charming mid-1960s Longines takes the classic dress watch formula and gives it a subtle twist. The 33 mm 10K gold-filled case has a soft, rounded-square profile that wears a touch bolder than a typical Calatrava, while still sliding neatly under a cuff. Applied gold baton markers and slim stick hands float over a warm champagne dial with the kind of gentle, even patina only decades of honest wear can create.
Inside is Longines’ caliber 370, a beautifully finished 17-jewel manual-wind movement designed for the North American market. It’s just been fully serviced and regulated, so you get the pleasure of winding a crisp 1960s Longines without worrying about what’s happening under the hood.
