Today, Longines combines the original aesthetics 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 its inception. The brand has accompanied numerous pioneers on their celestial, terrestrial and underwater adventures. The essence of Longines timepieces is found in this savoir-faire. These timepieces illustrate the longevity of a signature, and the ability continues to honor history with sophistication 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 the American pilot Charles Lindbergh in 1931. The Longines Weems Second-Setting Watch, which pays homage to the navigation system of Captain Philip van Horn Weems, 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.
