You're correct that it's pre-1940, and probably from the 20's. Nice heirloom! :thumbup1:

About the "Official Longines" watchmaker: DO NOT LET THAT GUY CHANGE ONE THING!!!! You'll kill the value (both monetary and sentimental). If you can get a clear picture of the movement and the inside of the caseback, we'll be able to give you the details to help you find a donor movement for parts. Then, find another watchmaker who's sensitive to vintage watches and won't take the easy way out. Official or not, the guy who wanted to put an automatic in it is a putz. If you have trouble finding somebody, say so in your reply and we'll see what we can do - either on your side of the pond or ours.
