An exact individual year cannot be determined without accompanying dated documentation. ────────────────── Case The round case is made of stainless steel and has a diameter of 38.5 mm excluding the crown. The case is predominantly high-gloss polished and features the classic long, slightly curved lugs that are characteristic of this generation of the Master Collection. The polished surfaces show light hairlines and normal superficial signs of wear. The overall presentation of the case is well maintained and there are no noticeable major damages or large dents. ────────────────── Dial The silver-colored dial has a very fine, repeating guilloché pattern that adds a lot of depth. Time is indicated with large black Arabic numerals. The classic typography matches the traditional design of the Master Collection. Below 12 o’clock: LONGINES flying sand watch logo Above 6 o’clock: AUTOMATIC GMT At the bottom: SWISS MADE. The actual time display is surrounded by a detailed minute and second scale. The dial is in a very neat condition. ────────────────── Hands The watch is equipped with classic blued steel feuille hands for hours and minutes. Depending on the light, they visually range from almost black to bright blue, which nicely contrasts with the light guilloché dial. In addition, there is a slim central seconds hand. ────────────────── GMT and world time function The special feature of this edition is the combination of GMT and world time indication. Around the central dial there is a 24-hour ring with numbers 1 through 24. Around this sits a wide ring with place names representing various international time zones. Among others, the following are listed: London Paris Cairo Riyadh Dubai Karachi Moscow Dacca Bangkok Beijing Hong Kong Tokyo Sydney Noumea Auckland Samoa Hawaii Anchorage Los Angeles Denver Mexico New York Santiago de Chile Rio de Janeiro Azores Through the combination of the 24-hour indication and the cities ring, the watch can be used to read off different international time zones. This makes the L2.631.4 one of the more distinctive travel complications within the classical Master Collection. ────────────────── Date At 3 o’clock is a clearly framed date window. The date is shown with black numerals on a light background. ────────────────── Movement The watch is powered by the automatic Longines caliber L635.6.
