Antique Art Deco Wrist Watch By Longines
A wonderfully unique Art Deco period timepiece by respected Swiss watchmakers Longines. The elegantly handcrafted case is fashioned from rich 18K yellow gold with fine engravings surrounding the border. The watch features the original dial by legendary dial manufactures and later owners of the Patek Philipe Watch Company, Stern Frères.
The House of Stern has produced some of the finest watches and dials in the world, and this beautiful example is no exception. The face features an intricately hand-engraved scrollwork center upon a sleek silver dial. Bold kiln-fired enamel Arabic numerals display the time, adding perfect contrast.
Stern Frères purchased Patek, Philippe & Cie out of bankruptcy during the Great Depression in the 1930s. The Stern family still owns the iconic Patek Philippe watchmaking house to this day.
A fully restored 17 jewel manual wind movement powers this marvelous timepiece, which has an 18-month warranty.
