Longines Ultra-Chron Jumbo Ref.7951-4 Cal.431 37.0mm 1969

A superb example of a high-beat jumbo from Longines’s precision era, this 37.0mm jumbo sized Ultra-Chron features a distinctive rare gunmetal grey sunburst dial with an elegant central crosshair, faceted steel pencil hands, and matching faceted hour indices. The original domed acrylic crystal remains clear and intact, enhancing its vintage charm while preserving the dial’s pristine presentation.

Encased in full stainless steel with a commanding 37.0 mm diameter and professionally polished to retain sharp, defined edges, the watch carries a signed Longines crown and screw-down caseback embossed with the famous Ultra-Chron emblem. Inside beats the legendary Cal.431, a 36,000 bph high-beat automatic movement once touted as “the world’s most accurate watch,” recently serviced and running excellently as shown in the last few images.
