Longines watch The Longines Avigation BigEye 41mm petrol automatic chronograph titanium L2.816.1.93.2

Today, Longines blends the original aesthetic of its most significant historical models with the most modern watchmaking technologies. The Heritage models are a tribute to the pioneering spirit that has driven Longines watchmakers since the very beginning. The brand has accompanied many pioneers in their celestial, terrestrial, and underwater adventures. The essence of Longines timepieces is found precisely in this savoir-faire. These timepieces illustrate the longevity of a brand and its continuous ability to honor history with refinement and elegance. Among the exceptional creations of the Heritage line, the most famous is undoubtedly the Lindbergh Hour Angle Watch, a re-edition of the watch developed for American pilot Charles Lindbergh in 1931. The Longines Weems Second-Setting Watch, which pays homage to Commander Philip van Horn Weems' navigation system, and the Longines Twenty-Four Hours, a re-edition of a watch specially developed in the 1950s for Swissair pilots, are also among the most emblematic Heritage models.
