STONEBRIDGE WATCHES SAYS...Presented here is a beautifully understated Vintage Longines Ultra-Chron Cushion Case Circa 1969, a refined example of Longines’ celebrated high-beat automatic era. Encased in stainless steel, the elegant cushion-shaped case perfectly captures the sophisticated design language of the late 1960s, offering a timeless balance between dress watch elegance and sporty vintage character.
The silver sunburst dial displays exceptional simplicity and charm, working harmoniously with the applied baton hour markers and slender handset to create a clean, highly wearable aesthetic. Beneath the dial sits Longines’ renowned Ultra-Chron automatic movement, developed during a period when Swiss manufacturers were pushing the boundaries of mechanical accuracy through high-frequency calibres.
Measuring approximately 35mm excluding the crown, the watch wears larger on the wrist thanks to its broad cushion case proportions, giving it a confident yet elegant presence suited perfectly to modern wear. The case retains excellent vintage character throughout, while the signed caseback medallion remains beautifully preserved.
This example is fitted to a soft and supple leather strap and paired with a Longines signed buckle, complementing the watch’s understated luxury perfectly. The watch will also be supplied with a Longines branded travel case for both storage and travel convenience.
At Stonebridge Watches, we have a deep appreciation for vintage Longines pieces from this era, particularly models such as the Ultra-Chron which continue to remain remarkably undervalued within the wider vintage Swiss watch market. With its elegant proportions, high-beat movement and distinctive late-1960s styling, this is a watch that offers genuine collector appeal alongside effortless everyday wearability.
