Watches Longines Spirit Flyback

suggestions

The Longines Spirit Flyback line symbolises the pioneering spirit that has always driven the brand. This chronograph watch with flyback function is testimony to Longines’ pioneering role in developing the technology. The winged-hourglass brand actually produced the first model equipped with a flyback function in 1925, then filed a patent that was registered on 16 June 1936: a world first. A revolutionary tool for conquering the skies, the flyback complication enables successive timing of different stages of a flight, thus facilitating navigation. The Longines Spirit Flyback features a bidirectional rotating bezel with a ceramic insert. Each model is powered by an exclusive Longines calibre, equipped with a silicon balance-spring, resistant to magnetic fields and chronometer-certified by the COSC.

The flyback function

A watchmaking complication invented by Longines in the 1920s, the flyback function enables a chronograph to measure consecutive intervals of time quickly and easily. Unlike a traditional chronograph, where the seconds hand has to be stopped, reset and restarted, the flyback function enables the hand to return instantly to zero and start measuring time again with a single press of the pusher. This function proves particularly useful in situations where precision and speed are essential, such as in aviation.
