Spirit in The Sky: Aviation, Exploration And Historical Design Inspire New Longines Spirit Collection

But did you know that Amelia Earhart and Howard Hughes also wore Longines watches on their own historic flights? Or that polar explorer Paul-Émile Victor wore one when he crossed the Greenland ice cap in 1936? Channeling the adventurous “spirit” of these pioneers, and the Saint-Imier watchmaker’s history of supplying robust, reliable timekeepers for their exploits, is the primary mission of the new Longines Spirit collection.
