Vintage Longines Swiss Watch, Unique Guilloché Dial, Ref. 7033-2, Cal. 12.68Z from 1954

This beautiful 1954 Longines reference 7033-2 is a refined example of classic Swiss watchmaking, powered by the manual-wind Caliber 12.68Z — one of Longines’ most celebrated mid-century movements.

What sets this piece apart is its dial design: a stunning two-tone layout with a guilloché-engraved outer ring that frames the central portion with a mix of fine texture and visual depth. The small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock balances the composition, and the applied indices and Arabic numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 keep the look both legible and elegant.

The 35mm stainless steel case offers clean lines and vintage proportions, and it’s fitted here with a period-appropriate textured steel bracelet that complements the watch’s refined yet slightly sporty aesthetic.

Inside beats the manual-winding Longines Cal. 12.68Z, a reliable 17-jewel movement known for its robust construction and smooth operation. The serial number 9202635 dates this watch to 1954.
