1976 Longines Gold Plated Stepped Hexagon 5047-2 34mm
Here we have a 1976 Longines Gold Plated Stepped Hexagon 5047-2, a striking example of the bold, geometric experimentation that defined 1970s watch design. The 34mm gold-plated case features a unique hexagonal silhouette with a stepped bezel that adds architectural depth and visual interest. With a remarkably short lug-to-lug length of 34.5mm and a slender thickness of just 9.5mm, the watch wears with a distinct, integrated presence that sits flat and elegant on the wrist. On the right side, a low-profile gold-tone crown is subtly integrated into the case to preserve the hexagon's sharp lines. Beneath a hexagon-shaped crystal lies a minimalist champagne dial that perfectly complements the case's golden tones. The dial features a brushed vertical finish and is accented by simple, printed black baton indexes and matching thin needle hands, adhering to a "less is more" philosophy that allows the unusual case shape to take centre stage. The iconic Longines winged hourglass logo is applied at 12 o’clock, serving as a hallmark of the brand’s long-standing heritage in Swiss elegance. On the reverse, a stainless steel snap-on case back protects the manually wound Longines Cal. L847.4. This ultra-slim 17-jewel movement, beating at 21,600 vibrations per hour, was a mainstay of Longines' high-end dress watches during this era, chosen specifically to achieve the watch’s svelte profile. It comes paired with its original Longines 18mm strap and a gold-plated Longines pin buckle, providing a sophisticated contrast that highlights the warmth of the gold plating.
