Description
Longines Wristwatches: A Collector's Guide is a comprehensive identification book featuring over 800 Longines watches produced between 1913 and 1974. The guide is illustrated with detailed images of these timepieces, many of which include their suggested retail price when first introduced.
After twelve years of research, this book is the first to focus almost exclusively on non-aviation Longines wristwatches. The author has drawn on a range of sources, including Longines' trade catalogs from the late 1930s to the 1960s, as well as auction house sales and advertisements from the time.
While not exhaustive, this guide provides a valuable starting point for collectors of Longines wristwatches, offering a detailed and illustrated resource for those looking to identify and learn more about these historic timepieces.
