Are you looking for a sports-chronograph model that will accompany you in any environment? If your answer is yes, then this Longines is perfect for you.
Longines, one of the leading brands of the Swiss watchmaking industry, has been among the watch enthusiasts' favorite brands for years with its wide product range and successful price/performance ratio. The brand, which offers amazingly put-together models, especially when it comes to the Heritage concept, is once again on our pages with the Master Collection Chronograph model.
The Master Collection model family is known for its versatile models that can present both classic and sporty themes. The model we have selected for you from this powerful collection is the Bi-Compax chronograph version bearing the reference L2.629.4.92.6.
Today, it is possible to find many different brands and models of sports-chronograph watches on the market. Among these, some models fully adopt the classic style or come as directly Re-Issue versions, while there are also very modern themed examples. However, to work this concept with both sporty and classic details and to offer it at an affordable price specific to the segment requires solid know-how like Longines has.
Longines Master Collection Chronograph (Ref: L2.629.4.92.6) offers details that reveal the brand's experience in this regard. The model comes in a 40mm diameter case, which we can consider as an optimal value in today's standards. Although the thickness of the case, measuring 11.70mm, is not at a record-breaking dimension in terms of thinness, it does not make you feel the slightest discomfort. The case, featuring scratch-resistant sapphire crystals on both sides, is resistant to water pressure up to 30 meters. Despite its strong lines, the case, which sports short chronograph pushers designed following the concept and a winding crown with Longines emblem, does not compromise on its elegance with its shiny surface form.
The most highlighted contribution to the versatile character of the model comes from its cobalt blue dial. The dial bears the Bi-Compax, or double sub-dial, chronograph sequence that we see in classic themed models. Hosting a sun-ray pattern background, the dial gains movement with the circular motif on chronograph counters. The dial, which takes on blue-purple colors under the light coming from different angles, has a date window at 6 o'clock. Equipped with baton markers and leaf-style hands, the dial, features just one downside, which is not having any phosphor at all.
Longines Caliber L889 brings the stylish model to life. The automatic Bi-Compax and date enabled caliber operates at a frequency of 4Hz (28.800vph) and offers up to 54 hours of power reserve when fully wound. The movement, which sports a Longines signed and perforated logo rotor, can be viewed through the crystal partitioned back cover.
Another significant contribution to the versatile character of the model comes from its metal bracelet. The bracelet complements the sporty character of the model with its strong image while preserving the elegance appeal with its double-tone surface and button-release butterfly clasp. The price for this stylish model is 24.200,00 ₺.
