Longines - Tropical Calatrava between Dress- & Sportswatch, Horological Lungfish, 22A-Automatic-Pioneer

We are proud to offer Lemon Calatrava 22A: 1951 Important Automatic-Longines, Tropical.

WHY WE LOVE IT: Because of its patinae: tropical! And because it is moved by the cal22A, Longines 1st ever automatic caliber that has a very exclusive role, given the patent for rotor-wound automatics by Rolex was running until 1953. And because it connects the dresswatch to the steel-sportswatch. An important watch; an important Longines.

Craft & Tailored explained in great words why this could be considered the horological lungfish that bridges the realm of dresswatches to steel-sportswatches -- indeed.

The important cal22A was serviced right now and runs excellent and precise. We connected the Longines-buckle by a dark-blue strap to the amazingly preserved case.
