    I do not currently own a Longines. Yet, this brand tugs at my heart strings constantly. I adore Longines history and relish the fact that my wife's father wore Longines watches. Sadly, I never had the chance to meet him as he passed away in 1982. He was a pilot as was my father. Both were born in 1921. My dad flew the PBY Catalina for the Navy in WWII, and I trust he had a great pilots watch similar to what Longines is known for.
    This is why Longines is of interest to me. I could acquire a watch from their heritage line and pay homage to both my father and the father-in-law I never knew.

      Salute to your father, he sounds like a great man. Longines Heritage would make a great choice, I believe it's an homage to the A-11 which was issued to several allied air forces including the USAAF.

      @@kermdeezy5330 Thanks for your kind words. I am biased, and my father was a better man than I have been and most likely will be. He was calm, forthright, and patient. He was my best teacher ever, and taught me practical skills like fishing and carpentry. I somewhat followed in his footsteps by joining the Naval Service, but as a U.S. Marine. He lived to the grand age of 93 and is sorely missed. Again, Thanks for your words and recommendation.

    My grandfather owned a Longines pocket watch and to this day, I’m saving for a watch to honor his work and contribution (his pocket watch was lost since) to our family to continue that legacy. I’m also a Queens native with humble beginnings looking to bring back a piece of history into our family again and continue the Longines spirit. Thank you for posting this wonderful video.

    I fell in love with Longines. My first from the brand was Hydroconquest with ceramic bezel, my first dream comes true. This year i added Spirit 37 in my collection. They are stunning pieces for the money!

    I have a decent collection of Breitlings, Omegas, Panerai, but my very favorite, and the 2 watches I wear every day are my Longines Spirit Zulu Time and Avigation Bigeye (my first Longines). I'm probably going to pick up a Flagship 40 as well. I love the brand. Quality, class, value

    I've just recently got into watches, and did a lot of research before buying my first watch - a Longines Heritage Military 6b/159. Out of all the brands, Longines was the brand that resonated with me during my search. I couldn't put the reason in words but this video seems pretty close. Thanks, really enjoyed it!

  • @sozensugiyama8821

    I love vintage watches, chronographs in particular, and you guessed it. I'm talking about 13ZN. There's everything to love about the manufacturer. Everybody in the vintage watch world feels the same way towards Longines as me (and Movado as well for that matter). Overstatement?
    I recently emailed Longines to have my old monopusher chronograph dated. It only took them a few days to get back to me with the date when the watch was originally invoiced to a retailer - June 3, 1937. Very few watch companies with a long history can do that today.
    They may not be as great as they used to be I must say, but hundreds of other players are in the same boat. Well, you know the reason. Longines, however, is one of the very few companies that have survived and continue to produce respectable watches with great customer care. Longines is a true watch manufacturer and their heritage lives on.
    Great video, thank you!

    Longines styling speaks to me the most. I really like my 36mm Legend Diver. Next will be the Dolce Vita followed by the Zulu unless the newly styled Conquest comes in a smaller case.
