Electra "Longine" balanced power wrist watch, LWC band.
This watch is made to trick people into thinking it is from the Longines company. But it is not. The face says "Longine" 23
Swiss made, unadjusted 1 jewel, M.Ritz .Electra did this with many other well known watch companies .
The case back says the fallowing: Timed and cased by precision watchcraftsmen diamond tooled, Stainless steel back - base metal bezel, Resistant to shock dust and magnetism. There is no diamond in or on this watch.
It has a very inexpensive watch moment, that happens to keep remarkable time. I am hoping that their is a cult fallowing for these kind of watches.

I graduated from the Bulova school of watchmaking in Oct 1978,
I got my certification from the Minnesota board of examiners in
watchmaking in 1981.
The Minnesota board of directors gave me a symbol to put on every watch I clean and overhaul.
This symbol is a rhombus with the letters BVS in it. I put the date the watch was worked
on near the symbol.
I worked for Fox Valley Trade Shop in Fond du Lac Wisconsin in 1979. Then JJ Smith in Janesville WI then Goodman's Jewelers in Minneapolis Minnesota then had my own watch repair place and now I own my own jewelry store and have since 1985.
