We love this funky cushion style case Longines Admiral reference 8581. Although the 16 Million serial indicates a production date of 1969, the design appears more 70’s than late 60’s. The previous owner also had the Longines Heritage Department pull some information and learned that that watch was first invoiced to Societe Anonyme Longines Geneve (S.A.L.G) in 1971. (Paperwork will be included upon shipping the watch). The preservation of this piece is nothing short of impressive and we look forward to passing it on to the next discerning collector.

Dial: No blemishes to note of under magnification. All of the tritum plots have aged to a gorgeous and even patina. Hands: Are matching and all of their lume is stable. Case: Very sharp and appears unpolished. There is a dent on the back corner of the case (refer to photos) but it is not distracting head on or when on wrist. Correct signed crown. Crystal: Clear. Accessories: Two piece leather strap in blue. All functions of the watch operate flawlessly. The movement was recently serviced, is running great on our timegrapher and comes with our 1-year mechanical warranty.
Year/era: 1969 Reference: 8581 Serial: 1605XXXX Dimensions: 39mm wide, 20mm lug width. Movement: Automatic Longines caliber 431.

Let's start a conversation if you have any questions about this piece.
