When you look closely you can tell that even the Longines dial had a hint of red at some point - The Telemeter scale still shows signs of this exploding color! ❤️ Can’t decide on straps right now, any suggestions!? The 1665 and the 13ZN will be online soon. The Nivada Grenchen is a gonner! ✌🏼 #watchworkshaarlem #rolex #longines #nivada #nivadagrenchen #vintagerolex #vintagelongines #vintagewatches #wruw #watches #red #patina #watcheswithpatina #haarlem #13zn #longines13zn #watchporn #longinesvintage #chronograph #handshot #tropical #seadweller #1665 #drsd #rolexseadweller #doublered #tropicaldial #watchesofinstagram #instawatch #picoftheday (bij WatchWorks Haarlem)

Appreciating vintage Longines is really the end of the collectors road in watches. While there are many branching offshoots on the road from neophyte to watch genius, vintage Longines is really at the end of the spectrum on the vintage side of things. Outside of a very select number of vintage Patek, fine quality 13ZN are fundamentally best-of-best in vintage manual winding chronographs (Daytona's while definitely way more valuable are most definitely not 'better' at least not mechanically....13ZN > Valjoux 72). While there are definitely plenty of really good and relatively underpriced high grade manual wind chrono's, 13ZN's deserve their lofty status. This particular example is a really solid entry into steel oversized 13ZN: military dial is totally original, it has a great looking 37.5mm stepped case and is a generally rare reference. Available on @ebaywatches for $9950 obo; a bargain for what it is and represents. - - - - - - - - - - #vintagewatch #vintagechrono #longines #13ZN #longines13ZN #militarydial #chrono #chronograph #manualwind #oversized #1940s #stepcase #staybrite #flyback #rarewatch #watch #watches #watchfam (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjRXOPqJ_Kh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
