Longines Just Dropped a Titanium Version of One of Its Most Popular Tool Watches
The watch comes on an interchangeable bracelet, also crafted from grade 5 titanium, with a double-security folding clasp and pusher-operated opening mechanism.
The bi-directional ceramic bezel with 24-hour scale is divided into two shades, matte and polished black, to indicate the hours of the day and night, respectively.
The anthracite dial features a date aperture at 6 o’clock, Super‐LumiNova® coated applied Arabic numerals and gold-plated hands.
The matte black GMT hand has a red tip with a luminescent arrow, in the same color as the “Zulu Time” inscription on the dial.
It’s powered by a chronometer-certified GMT calibre
Tucked inside this watch’s titanium case is an exclusive Longines GMT calibre L844.4 that’s equipped with a silicon balance-spring. It offers ten times the resistance to magnetic fields than the ISO 764 reference standard.
This extremely precise self-winding mechanical movement has a power reserve of up to 72 hours, and it is officially certified as a chronometer by the COSC (Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres).
