Longines Spirit Owner Review : Refined, elegant and beautiful

This is a particularly elegant pilot's watch. I like the story it tells. It reminds us that at the beginning of the 20th century, aviation pioneers wore Longines. This is only part of Longines' rich, almost bicentennial history. Technically, it has good specifications considering its price. It offers beautiful finishes alternating between brushed and polished. The assembly is impeccable. The crown is imposing, confirming the pilot's watch side. The sunray blue dial is detailed. The indexes are applied and luminescent. The brand logo and the 5 stars are also applied. These 5 stars mean that this is a model that has benefited from particular attention to chronometric precision. Longines has been using them for a long time. Even the railway is well worked with recesses to make room for the small diamond at each hour. The case back is quite ordinary. As for the movement, it is efficient and certified as a chronometer by the COSC. It is the L888.4, oscillating at 25,200 vibrations per hour with a silicon balance spring and equipped with a 72-hour power reserve. The original bracelet is pretty with a clasp with a butterfly buckle.
