Longines vintage Art Deco tank watch from 1938 with a rectangular Staybrite stainless steel case, professionally restored black dial, luminous-style Arabic numerals and the manually wound Calibre 2517.

The striking black dial features non-radium luminous Arabic numerals paired with a geometric minute track, creating a bold and highly legible Art Deco appearance. Matching cathedral-style hands reinforce the period character, while the square-framed sub-seconds register adds depth to the otherwise clean rectangular layout.

Measuring 20 × 35 mm without the crown, the Staybrite stainless steel rectangular case has a slim 9.5 mm profile and tall, elegant proportions characteristic of late-1930s Art Deco design. Serial number 5812643 dates the watch to 1938, while the original case construction preserves the streamlined character of the period.
