Longines Admiral

Details

A Foundation Of Swiss Quality

The Longines Admiral line represents a core part of the brand's identity from the late 1960s and early 1970s. These watches were built to be reliable, handsome, and technically competent pieces for everyday wear. The "Five Star" designation was reserved for models fitted with high-grade automatic movements, signaling a superior level of quality and performance. This reference 8336 is a clean example of that philosophy, offering a robust build and a clean design from a powerhouse of Swiss watchmaking.

A Textured Dial On An Original Bracelet

What sets this example apart is its vertically brushed silver dial, a subtle but distinct detail that gives the watch a unique texture and presence on the wrist. It is paired with its original Longines stamped bracelet, a crucial element for collectors that completes the watch's authentic look. The quickset date function adds a layer of practical convenience, making it a vintage piece that is effortless to live with.

Untouched And Ready To Wear

This Admiral is in great, untouched cosmetic condition. Both the dial and crystal are clean and free from any scratches or marks. The stainless steel case and caseback are original, as are the signed Longines crown, dial, and movement. The original bracelet can accommodate a wrist up to 7.25 inches. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

The Perfect Entry To Vintage

This watch is an ideal starting point for someone looking to get into vintage collecting. It offers the heritage and quality of the Longines name in a versatile, understated package. The 35mm case is comfortable and classic, while the unique dial finish provides just enough character to stand out. It is a straightforward, honest watch that works in any setting.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
