NOS or not, it's good enough for me!
Just arrived - the 1960 Flagship caliber 380:Nice of the seller to include a new crystal too! Of course you have to check everything out, so start with the dial and hands.Looking good, now take a peek at how crisp the lugs and case edges are plus there's no wear on the crown:A quick glance at the hallmarks:And for my favorite part - the caseback:I've never seen one with so much frosting left on the caseback. It's a good day!

My Longines Charles Lindbergh Hour Angle
As some of you may already know, I acquired this from a private seller in early January. I've had a few members asking me about the watch and how it functions. Hopefully, by using the references I've linked to here those who are interested can learn, as I have been able to do, something more about how to operate it's functions:Longines Heritage Collection Lindbergh Hour Angle L614.2 automatic movement (38mm) L2.601.4.11.2Longines has a wonderful virtual/interactive online tutorial that explains exactly how to use the functions of this watch. Here is the link to Longines' Virtual Catalogues. This site is easy to understand, and can explain how this watch is used much better than I can. There is also some more really good reference material contained in the December 2006 article by Watch Time magazine, entitled "The Lindbergh Flies Again". Within the article is a 6-step tutorial on how to use the watch subtitled "Working All the Angles: How to Use the Lindbergh Watch. It's not hard to do

I picked up the phone and called my favorite AD, told him about the price and asked him what he could do. He got really competitive and today it arrived!I looked hard at the PO, but I've got smallish wrists and figured that the SMPc's more svelt dimensions would be a better long term option for me. I had some serious reservations about the 2500 movement after reading about some of the issues with the A and B
