Champagne sunburst sector dial, probably unpolished case in solid 18K yellowgold and "Chronometer" instead of "Ultra-Chron-"print below the applied Ultra-Chron logo: a rare Chronometer-grade Longines.
Made in 1969, when the Neuchatel chronometer observations where not a competition anymore but where still certifying movements for Chronometer-grade. And Chronometer-grade Longines were sold with an markup of 25 - 40% back then. So it comes at no surprise these are rare and sougth-after icons, today.
