Case: The heavy (135grms) 14ct Gold case with a beautiful high relief of a huntsman and his dog shooting ducks with green gold foliage to the case. The back cover has a high relief vacant shield cartouche with Green gold foliage applied. The inner cuvette signed Longines, Grand Prix Paris 1889 with a description of the movement. The cases are all signed, numbered and Swiss hallmarked.

This is a rare watch to find in such good condition, with this unusual shooting scene to the front cover of the watch.
