What makes this timepiece exceptional
As the fourth chronograph movement manufactured by Longines in 1947 for chronograph bracelets, the 30CH has a semi-instantaneous 30-minute counter and indicates a 5th of a second.
A worthy successor of the caliber 13ZN, it continues to appeal to watch lovers and collectors of exceptional chronograph movements even today. This caliber is also equipped with a flyback function. The excellent condition of the gold case is the result of a full and thorough restoration by an exceptional jeweler in the Longines Heritage workshop.
