Bonjour!
There have been some made with five-inch barrels, but they must be very rare, unless this is something being made especially for the French market. I saw some in photos in a gun magazine some years ago. They may have been special order items.
I think Canadians have to have guns with at least five-inch barrels, but don't know that S&W made any for them. (M-19's, I mean.)
The only fixed sight M-19's I know of were for a Peruvian order, but they had four-inch barrels. (10cm)
Can you get a very good assortment of .357 Magnum ammunition there? Are hollowpoint bullets allowed?
Can civilians use pistols/revolvers anywhere but on shooting ranges, as in small game hunting or for defense carry?

The fixed sight model 19 revolvers were called the 19-P and made for the Peruvian government and for export to Europe. Most were 4-inch, but some were 2.5 inch. All were blue. I have not heard of a 5 inch, but anything is possible.

Thanks. Switzerland also is still relatively liberal about guns. We have a Swiss member here.
If you see that gun again, please let us know whether it has a four or five inch barrel.
