Longines Lindbergh Original : born of challenge and triumph
“Well, I did it”
Charles Lindbergh, May 21, 1927
New York, May 20th 1927, 07:43 a.m. – The “Spirit of St. Louis” finally took
off from Roosevelt Airport. Destination: Le Bourget airport near Paris. In the
cockpit was a 25-year old American called Charles A. Lindbergh. Thirty-three
hours and thirty-nine minutes later he landed in Paris, making aviation history
with the first non-stop transatlantic flight. As the official timekeeper of the
International Aviation Association, Longines duly entered his flight in the record
books. Shortly afterwards, close collaboration between Longines and Lindbergh
led to the Longines Hour Angle watch. Conceived and designed by Charles A. Lindbergh,
it served to determine exact longitude during long-distance flights.
Reference
L2.601.4.11.2
The Longines Lindbergh retains the attractive design
worthy of a complex measuring instrument. Its striking
Roman numerals contrast attractively with to its
otherwise soberly functional face. Like its Louis
XV styled turnip-shaped crown and Breguet hands,
they recall an earlier time, when the Art DГ©co
movement decreed that every object had to be beautiful
and suitably decorated no matter how utilitarian
its purpose. The Longines Lindbergh 75th Anniversary
Edition comes in its original 38.00 mm size and is
equipped with a mechanical Longines L614.2 seld-winding
mechanical movement. The watch features a superbly
finished stainless-steel case and a black leather
strap.
