Chronographs by Longines are considered to be amongst the best made, most attractive and, consequently, collectable in the world. The present yellow gold flyback chronograph from the 1930s stands out with its absolutely stunning aesthetics and its incredibly large size. While a typical men’s watch was sized between 32 and 34 mm during this early era, one can’t help but be impressed by its 38mm.

Its stunning white enamel dial is beautifully adorned with a tachometer scale divided into several colored segments in blue, black and red. Featuring a flyback function, the complication allows the wearer to reset the seconds of the chronograph with one click of a pusher while the chronograph is engaged. Enhancing its desirability is the rare, Milanese retailer signature, ‘Giudici Milano’ found at 12 o’clock. Thanks to its masculine and timeless case design, and its oversized case, the present chronograph is perfectly in-line with contemporary tastes. Presented with its original box and in superb condition, it is an exceptional example of an early Longines chronograph for the connoisseur.
