Very Good Condition
This Longines La Grande Classique 22mm from 2013 is presented in very good condition. Crafted in stainless steel with a white dial, Roman numerals and bracelet, it offers a refined, petite look. Ideal for work, lunches or formal occasions, this elegant watch brings understated sophistication to both day and evening wear.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size is this watch, and how does it wear? A: This watch has a 22 mm case, giving it a very petite and elegant look on the wrist. It is ideal if you prefer a slim, understated dress watch rather than a larger modern style.
Q: Is this Longines La Grande Classique a quartz or automatic watch? A: This reference is a quartz model, meaning it is battery-powered and designed for simple, accurate day-to-day timekeeping.
Q: What wrist size will the bracelet fit? A: The current bracelet is listed as fitting a wrist of 16 cm or smaller. It may be adjusted smaller if needed, but buyers with a larger wrist should check sizing carefully before purchase.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized? A: Yes, a stainless steel bracelet like this can usually be resized by a watchmaker. If you need a larger fit than the current size, extra links may need to be sourced separately.
Q: Is a 22 mm watch very small? A: Yes, 22 mm is considered a small watch size by modern standards. Many buyers choose it for its refined, vintage-inspired look and jewellery-like presence on the wrist.
Q: Can I wear this watch every day? A: Yes, this model is well suited to everyday wear if you enjoy classic, lightweight watches. Its slim profile and clean Roman numeral dial make it especially easy to dress up or wear casually.
Q: Can this watch be worn in water? A: This style is best treated as a dress watch rather than a sports watch. With any pre-owned watch, we recommend avoiding swimming, showering, or full submersion unless it has been freshly pressure-tested.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: This piece is listed in very good condition overall, with shiny hardware and light scratches. As a pre-owned watch from 2013, light signs of careful use are to be expected.
Q: What product information is included with this watch? A: This watch is listed with no product information included. If you are looking for original box, papers, or spare links, please assume they are not included unless stated otherwise.
Q: Can the serial number be used to identify the watch? A: Yes, Longines keeps historical records by serial number. This watch is listed with serial number 38024829, and because it is over ten years old, it may be eligible for archive-related information through Longines.
