Longines released the newest addition to their Sports line in early June of 2020. The collection is inspired by the pioneering spirit and exploits of history’s most prominent aviators. Amelia Earhart, Howard Hughs and Paule-Emile Victor are just some of the figures who influenced the design and features of the Spirit collection. With a typical Longines attention to detail and outstanding craftsmanship, the models in this line were created to inspire adventure and a desire for you to leave your mark on the world.
