Longines, divers watch, very rare 1st generation model, chronograph with flyback function, circa 1968.
It is a sports type watch, which is different from other 30CH watches of the 60s. The specifications are different between 7981-1 and 7981-2, this model is equipped with Cal. This model is a precious first model with leaf hands on the dial and "LONGINES/WATERPROOF" engraved on the back cover. The overall condition of the dial, case, and movement is excellent, and we may never see such a precious 1st generation watch again in the future. It comes with an archival document (1968).
