Longines Spirit Pilot and Spirit Pilot Flyback: Where Pioneering Spirit Meets Modern Precision

Drawing on nearly a century of aviation heritage, Longines expands its Spirit pillar with the new Spirit Pilot and Spirit Pilot Flyback designs for 2025. These models remain faithful to the original Spirit collection’s distinctive aesthetics while strengthening Longines’ position in the pilot watch category through design authenticity and sophisticated tool-watch functionality. The new watches blend traditional aeronautical features with cutting-edge horological innovation, embodying the pioneering spirit that has driven extraordinary men and women to push boundaries since the brand’s earliest involvement in aviation.

Longines has a long history of accompanying some of the world’s greatest explorers in their conquest of the skies. From historic transatlantic flights to polar expeditions across frozen landscapes, the Swiss watchmaker has created precision instruments that perform flawlessly under the most demanding conditions. Today, the brand breathes new life into this fascinating heritage through its Spirit product line, launched in 2020 to honour the fearless aviators and adventurers who have trusted their lives to Longines timepieces.

The expanded Spirit collection for 2025 introduces the new Spirit Pilot iterations, representing a thoughtful evolution of the collection’s established designs. The Spirit Pilot advances the three-hand model with refined updates, while the Spirit Pilot Flyback brings enhanced sophistication to the chronograph variant. Both models combine traditional characteristics with state-of-the-art horological technologies in a fusion of elegance and functionality.

The expanded Spirit Pilot collection continues Longines’ proud tradition of creating timepieces for those who dare to explore new frontiers. These authentic pilot watches demonstrate that when technical excellence meets genuine passion for adventure, the result transcends mere timekeeping to become an instrument of human achievement. As new generations of pioneers emerge, they will find in the Spirit Pilot collection the same commitment to elegance, tradition, and performance that has guided Longines for nearly two centuries.
