Taking inspiration from Longines heritage and original Dual Time Zone watch, the Spirit Zulu Time takes a modernised approach to a classic design.
The Spirit Zulu watch takes inspiration from aviation and the original Longines Dual Time Zone watch created in 1925. With a contemporary redesign and all-new features, it’s set to become the new classic.The Longines Spirit collection was created to exalt the glory days of aviation, where intrepid flyboys embarked on legendary exploits in the skies. We first covered the collection on its debut in 2020 in issue #59, with time-only and chronograph models.
For their 41-hour trip across the Pacific Ocean, Longines furnished the American aviators with a special cockpit clock equipped with double hour and minute hands and two concentric 24-hour dials. This technique of indicating different time zones was first developed by the watchmaker for the Ottoman Empire in 1908, and from the cockpit clock it was modified to fit onto the wrists of pilots who set out to cross time zones.
The Spirit Zulu Time takes a modern approach to Longines’ century-old expertise in tracking multiple time zones, using a 24- hour hand in conjunction with a bidirectional rotating bezel graduated over 24 hours. Local time is adjusted independently, granting the watch “true GMT” status.
