Longines Lindbergh Hour Angle Owner Review : Complex, astute and historical

Can we talk about love at first sight when talking about a watch? Love at first sight, for sure. Here is a watch that had all the attributes to not please me and yet, it is one of the pieces that I consider important in my collection. A contained diameter, 38mm, vintage colors, Roman numerals, Arabic numerals, a central disc that turns, a "secret" button that allows you to open the back, hour angles, an aviation story... A watch full of information, complex to use (if you want to use the calculation of hour angles, not to read the time...), the term complications will never have been so apt but very endearing at the same time. It is one of my watches that most often attracts attention when I wear it and that we don't have much opportunity to see. To summarize, a vintage watch, that we enjoy wearing, that attracts sympathy and that is more precise and reliable, or how to treat yourself with a watch that has a story for a relatively "soft" price.
