Dear Mr. ...,
Thank you for your email.
Following your request, I have the pleasure to give you here below the information I found in our old hand-written registers :
The serial number 5’554’589 identifies a wristwatch in stainless steel.
It is fitted with a Longines manufacture caliber 12.68Z that was first produced in 1929.
It was invoiced to Messrs.’ Ostersetzer in Milano, who were for many years our agent for Italy, on the 20.12.1937.
Hoping this information is convenient to you, I remain at your entire disposal for any additional information you may require.
Best regards,
Jennifer Bochud
Museum Curator
