Today, Longines combines the original aesthetics of its most significant historical models with the most modern watchmaking technologies. Heritage models are a tribute to the pioneering spirit that has animated Longines watchmakers from the very beginning. The brand has accompanied numerous pioneers in their celestial, terrestrial and underwater adventures. The essence of Longines timepieces is precisely in this savoir-faire. These timepieces illustrate the longevity of a signature and the ability to continue to honor history with sophistication and elegance.
Among the outstanding 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 Commander Philip van Horn Weems' navigation system, and the Longines Twenty-Four Hours, a reissue of a watch specially developed in the 1950s for Swissair pilots, are also among the most iconic Heritage models.
