Longines
Ultra-Chron
Rare Grey Crosshair Dial / 1969
Intro
This Longines Ultra-Chron from 1969 features a beautiful dark grey crosshair dial. This is truly a beautiful piece that any watch collector can appreciate.
Story
The Longines Ultra-Chron is a watch that ticks all the boxes that we require of a proper vintage dress piece. Introduced in the late 1960s and produced for only six years, the Ultra-Chron is an early attempt by the brand to mass-produce a mechanical watch that, according to their advertisements, was "the world's most accurate watch... guaranteed accurate to within one minute per month." This was achieved with the hi-beat Caliber movement, which had a beat rate of 36,000 beats per hour.

Please Note
Authenticity
Our watches and products have been checked and validated by our local watchmaker with a Japanese government-issued licence (時計修理技能士1級). All watches and accessories are authentic with their original parts (including original untouched / un-repainted dial) unless specifically stated otherwise.
Size
Vintage watches are generally smaller than modern watches. Although our measurements are approximate, they provide a good indicator for the buyer to assess whether the smaller size will be an issue.
Servicing
If a watch is not specifically indicated as "Serviced", we do not have its service history and cannot guarantee its accuracy. We highly recommend it to be serviced by a watchmaker for regular use.
Accuracy
The accuracy indicated in the Condition section is based only on a 12-hour timegrapher test in one position (movement up or dial up). This serves as a reference to help the buyer understand the condition of the movement. We cannot guarantee its actual accuracy, and based on our experience, real-world performance may vary.
Original Accessory
Watch does not included original bracelet / strap / buckle / box / paper unless specifically stated.
