For nearly a century, Longines has accompanied some of the world’s greatest explorers in their conquest of the air, sea and land. The Longines Spirit collection brings to life the pioneering spirit that drove these extraordinary men and women to surpass themselves, pursue new ambitions and believe in the impossible. Linking history with innovation, the Longines Spirit Chronograph watches take traditional features from aviators' watches and combine them with state-of-the-art horological technologies. All their movements are equipped with silicon balance-springs and are chronometer-certified by the COSC.
Backed by centuries of watchmaking expertise, Longines has pioneered many technical advances and still displays an unfailing will to innovate. Its constant pursuit of excellence has led Longines to equip all its automatic timepieces with cutting-edge movements whose features include a silicon balance-spring. Silicon is not only lightweight and corrosion-resistant, but also impervious to normal temperature fluctuations and magnetic fields. Its unique properties boost the watch’s precision and longevity and allow Longines to guarantee these models for 5 years.
