Longines Flyback Chronograph 1952

When it comes to chronograph movements, Longines and the caliber 30CH stand out from the rest. This watch not only features a gorgeous rose-gold case, but also an incredibly fun flyback function.

The caliber 13ZN from Longines is often considered to be the most exquisite chronograph movement ever designed. Its successor, the 30CH, was introduced in 1947, and kept the same assets and the celebrated flyback function.
