Can anyone iditenfy the model/tpye of this watch?

[Jerome]

I bought that today, all I know is that its from the year 1958...I checked a few links (also Longines page itself) but I couldnt find anyhting...Im not very knowledgable about watches but maybe we have some afficionados or collectors here who could tell me some about it...I would appreciate any feedback!

It's a 1958 Longines Automatic.

Sorry, I don't know any more

It is a very nice watch though.

^^^ what he said. I'd add that it is probably the siver dial version

Thanks for the kuddos, anyhow, guys!

Great watch.

You can check out the vintage watch forum at timezone.com.

Very nice, particularly the "Portugieser"-like dial. I'll venture to guess it has the Longines 30L calibre movement inside.

jc138: thanks for the rec., I'll look into that...also -for those who speak German- I have found this forum,; though I havent had time yet to check its quality etc (does anyone know it?) :

lucky strike: I think its L22A calibre but Im not sure...yeah I somehow dig the design of the [arabian] numbers too, somehow very nonchalent if you e.g. look at the 6 and the 9...

All the best, J.
