Longines Admiral Watchmaker's Tool c.1955

The Longines 'Admiral' are a prestige range of sports and waterproof watches, that have appeared in many different model designs over the decades. In the late 50's and 60's Longines manufactured a waterproof design that encapsulated the movement in a seamless case, relying on the crystal to waterproof and protect the inner mechanism from the ingress of dust and water. During servicing though, the crystal would require removal and in order to do this, Longines supplied its watchmakers with a special Admiral crystal extracting tool. This metal tool is in mint condition and comes with its original protective pouch. An interesting and rare Longines tool that is both collectable and useful for the amateur watchmaker.
