Newbie today. A 1961 Longines in 18k gold on brown lizard strap by marvin revue and Longines buckle. Movement is the 19.4 with 17j 19,800vph and 3mm thick, making it super slim on the wrist.

That is beautiful.
Looks in better condition than my Longines from the same year, though mine isn't bad.

Thank you Asqwerth, she,s in very good shape casewise and the dial has a slight yellowing with age. Sadly my photography skills are not upto the same quality.

My late father's Accurist "Super Waterproof" circa 1969?
Can anyone tell me anything about this model?
