Longines
ULTRA-CHRON
Mint Dial / 1970


Intro

This Longines Ultra-Chron from 1970 features a mint-condition silver two-tone vertically brushed dial and a uniquely positioned date window. It is powered by the Caliber 431 automatic movement, known for its reliability and its convenient quick-set function, which allows the date to be adjusted by moving the hour hand back and forth at midnight. This is truly a beautiful piece that any watch collector can appreciate.

Intro

The Longines UltraChron 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 UltraChron 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.
