Showing here is a rare bird indeed, a 1973 Longines presented in a distinctive Disco Volante monocoque case. The dial is double signed, proudly bearing both the Ultra-Chron logo and the Flagship designation at 6 o’clock. The gold plated case remains in near pristine, original factory condition, complementing a beautifully preserved silver-white dial with a refined vertical brushed finish. A date window sits at the unconventional 4:30 driver’s position, a signature that Longines does to certain line of watches in the 60s & 70s. Powering the watch is Longines’ in house high-beat Cal. 431 movement, notable for its impressive frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour (10 beats per second) and its instantaneous date change at midnight, both hallmarks of the brand’s technical prowess during the era.
