My shop name is winebeerglasses, same as my former Etsy shop (see the last image).  I have a perfect 5-star customer rating from my buyers at Etsy for five years.  I left Etsy because Etsy's customer support is unbearable.  I decided to migrate to Bonanza.

I build and restore vintage automatic watches as a hobby using my knowledge in precision engineering and aesthetics.  All my watches are freshly lubricated, timegrapher regulated, and cleaned to restore the pleasure of wearing a vintage watch with its full functionalities and timing performance.

I do not use Chinese-made parts, even the spring bars are Swiss Made.

I restored this Longines automatic watch likely made in late 50s and early 60s with the venerable 19AS automatic movement. The quality of Longines watches in the 50s and 60s was in par with Omega. I can tell when I restore it.



The dial is very clean, remarkable for its age. It is quite hard to come by clean dials as such. I fitted it with a period correct vintage bracelet and the entire watch looks right, having that old look and yet clean and refreshing.



It keeps great time, much better than +- 2 minutes per day for vintage watches. It is quite amazing a watch made over 60 years is running so well. The automatic winding mechanism is unique and it winds both ways, well ahead of its time. It is silky smooth. Really enjoyable to wear.



As in any vintage watches, keep it from water. NOT water resistant!!!



It is 36 mm across and 42 mm lug to lug, medium size for a classical look, not those outlandish large but cheaply made watches flooding the store.



The sale is final. But I will offer free maintenance for three months. The buyer only pays one way shipping to me if service is needed. I will repair it and ship it back for free.



It is time to wear something different against the onslaught of electronics. In terms of the art of mechanical design, 60s and 70s were the peak. After that, it is all half electronics or full electronics.
