Here's a detailed description of a rare Longines Art Deco slim pocket watch that dates back to the 1920s. It's a keyless lever watch made of 18ct white gold and measures 44mm. The two-tone cream and silver dial is simply beautiful, with black Arabic numerals, a chemin de fer chapter ring, and a subsidiary seconds register located at six o'clock with original blued steel Fleur-de-Lys hands.

The 18ct white gold case is quite rare and features a verso snap-on case back, a lozenge-shaped monogrammed cartouche on the polished case back that is fully hallmarked and numbered. The movement is of very high quality, nickel-finished, fully jewelled with a gold train, micrometre regulation, and is fully signed and numbered by Longines.

This pocket watch is an exceptional example of an Art Deco Slim watch from the Belle Époque era of the 1920s. Its rarity, design, and high-quality components make it a true gem for collectors and watch enthusiasts alike.
