Longines Spirit Prestige Edition 40mm L3.810.4.53.9

Without any doubt, Longines inspires us to fly with this aviation-themed timepiece. The Longines Spirit Prestige Edition 40mm L3.810.4.53.9 reminisces a great history of soaring, as its name suggests. The timepiece gains its roots from watch pieces built for legendary pilots, such as Howard Hughes and Amelia Earhart. Such pieces were trust-worthy navigational assistants, which could accompany each pilot on extended airborne solos worldwide.

What made such timepieces so special is their specifically crafted framework for delivering the required peak performance, even while airborne. Each watch counted as an efficient timing instrument, trusted even in bad weather conditions. All these features make up the Longines Spirit Prestige Edition 40mm L3.810.4.53.9 wristwatch.

The Features

This excellent piece presents itself with a crystal-clear look, coupled with a medium 40mm diameter display. The sapphire display contains anti-reflective shielding, enclosed around by a stainless-steel body. Because of these features and the screw-down crown, the watch can withstand at least 100 meters underwater. One look at the timepiece tells its fantastic story.

From a background representing the free, each Longines Spirit Prestige Edition product package, whether leather-strapped or steel-strapped, offers the user a feel of true freedom. It presents itself as mature and elegant, starting from its dial system to the double straps. In essence, each contributes to an unquestionable classy and modern feel from the Longines Spirit Prestige Edition 40mm L3.810.4.53.9.

The Dial

The dial color ranges from a unique matte black color to a sun-ray blue and grained silver look.

A closer look at the dial identifies a two-tiered layer. The wider spun part carries the surface part hoisting the “minuterie” or minute track. Flipping to the side will show a little rim between the layers, which coalesces to a diamond-shaped lume every hour. From its elegant appearance to its intricate machinery, each detail about the dial further exalts the beauty of this timepiece.

Few watch hour markers elicit a gasp at such a clean look as the Longines Spirit Prestige Edition, complete with a super-LumiNova infused Arabic hour marker. Together, the markers crown the center dial and create a luminescent but beautiful appearance, topped with a no-nonsense outlook. This luminescent setup makes each marker quite visible even at night or during low-light conditions. Added to the dial are finely paced numerals, the quintessential Longines logo and wordmark, and "automatic" text. This piece also scores a high point on its clean design, which reminds us of a real pilot's watch.

The Case

The thick but beautifully crafted 40mm body enclosure adds to this look with long, pointy lugs.

In accordance with its sleek appearance, this timepiece fits quite leisurely around the arm. Coupled with that, it has very readable time-hands and numerals.

The leather strap is brown and has a lug-width of 21 mm, so it is easily replaceable with various colors. The leather strap on the arm is thick but also comfortable. The single stainless-steel buckle ensures that that great feeling remains the same throughout the day.

The Five Stars

Embossed on the dial of this watch are the five stars that remind us of Longines' heritage. These stars represent a promise of quality and standard from the Longines brand. Below the stars is a certified proof, showing that every movement in the Longines Spirit will be reliable.

The Longines Spirit also includes an extra five years warranty. Each year represents an assurance of quality for the timepiece.
