Story & Heritage

During World War II, Longines emerged as one of the most trusted watch manufacturers for military personnel, supplying reliable and precise field watches that could withstand harsh conditions. This model reflects the exact philosophy that guided the brand during the era: legibility, simplicity, and unwavering dependability.

The rare black dial was highly sought after by servicemen for its superior contrast in low-light environments. The blued hands and luminous numerals added essential visibility during night operations, and the small-second layout allowed soldiers to time maneuvers with better precision.

The stainless steel case, robust Longines mechanical movement, and utilitarian design show the brand’s dedication to producing watches that could endure long missions, extreme weather, and battlefield environments. Today, WW2 Longines pieces like this are appreciated not only for their historical value but also for their understated beauty and timeless mechanical craftsmanship.
