Vintage Leijona

Post by Vesku »

Hi WatchGuys
Just received my new watch, Leijona (it's Finnish and means Lion). It's swiss made from 50s with AS1130 movement, overall condition is very good level (actually best what I ever saw).

That is beautiful! You should go to the Vintage Forum and put your pictures in the Vintage Gallery. :thumbup:

That's probably the most beautiful Leijona I've ever seen.

Thanks all, it's 38mm with crown. I think that this is my favorite dress watch from now on (until I find a new one 8) )
