Longines L160.2 Movement Technical Reference | ETA 256.041

The Longines L160.2 is recorded in the Gilded Hour catalogue as a quartz movement cross-referenced to ETA 256.041. It appears in a later Longines Les Grandes Classiques watch and should be identified from the movement itself before any replacement or battery work.

Battery and replacement guidance

SR621SW is the battery currently recorded for the connected Gilded Hour L160.2 listing. Treat that as a watch-specific catalogue observation, not a universal replacement instruction. Confirm the movement marking, battery well, cell height, polarity and clamp before fitting a new cell.

Service notes

Inspect the battery compartment for leakage and corrosion, then check the contact spring, coil, circuit, setting mechanism and hand clearance. A replacement ETA 256.041 should only be considered after comparing diameter, thickness, stem position, hand sizes and dial-foot constraints.
