Condition: Dial variations are just one way collectors enjoy vintage watches. This reference 1116 is a great example. The watch was manufactured in 1962. It has a 10k gold filled case made by Schwab & Wuischpard Case Co based on caseback stamps. The case is in good condition, with only a few scratches on the case near the crown. The lugs are short and thin. The dial is made of linen, with gold, applied hour markers and Longines logo. The gold caseback has a engraved dedication to “J.A. Zonlick From Your Stanley Associates 6-28-63”. The inscription likely points to the sale and gifting of the watch in 1963 to JA Zonlick from Stanley Associates that could have been based in Massachusetts, USA.
The watch does not come with box and papers.
