Description

Seldom seen, the Ref. 6875 is a handsome Longines model with a 35mm diameter case that has a faceted bezel and pronounced tapered chamfers to the lugs. There is a screw-down case back and this example retains its original signed Longines winding crown. The silvered dial, which has a good lustre and a lovely warm patination, is set with applied gold faceted dagger indexes and matching, gilded, alpha-shaped hands. There is light oxidation to the surface of the dial. The steel case retains good definition to its angles and there are light scuffs and scratches.
