Beautiful early Longines wristwatch in solid 14K rose gold with near mint "red 12" white enamel roman numeral dial circa 1915.  This would have been considered a very thin and stylish full size mens dress watch when it was purchased new almost a hundred years ago.  It measures 31.5mm in diameter and only 8.6mm thick including the original glass crystal.  The dial is stunning, signed Longines just above the sub-seconds dial at 6:00 with no hairline cracks or chips.  A skillfully crafted and conceived early gold timepiece from the famous house of Longines, Switzerland.   A fine collectors example or a stunning ladies dress watch in today's market.
