Vintage Longines Bi-Compax Chronograph with Tachymeter and Telemeter Scales

Description

This vintage Longines chronograph is an elegant example of mid-20th-century watchmaking, characterized by its sophisticated bi-compax dial layout. The silvered dial features applied indices and multiple scales (tachymeter and telemeter), typical of aviation or racing watches from that era. The case, likely steel or gold-plated, and the brown crocodile/alligator leather strap enhance its classic and timeless appeal. Despite visible patina on the dial, this piece retains significant historical and aesthetic value for discerning collectors.
