Description:
The LONGINES wrist alarm clock automatic date was a highly stylish product around 1970 and really useful, as the watch runs reliably and wakes you up precisely. The slightly square case shape with the integrated solid stainless steel bracelet was extremely modern and can also be found in this style with other Swiss manufacturers of the time. A striking watch, sporty and unmistakable!
