Longines SPIRIT PILOT FLYBACKvsYema YEMA x Silberstein Marine 2 CMM.20 Limited Edition

The Longines Spirit Pilot Flyback is widely praised for its refined 39.5mm case size, improved wearability, and clean dial design, incorporating enthusiast feedback by removing the five stars and date. Reviewers and owners consistently highlight its exceptional finishing, well-acting ceramic bezel, and the value it offers. The manual-winding L792.4 column-wheel chronograph movement is COSC-certified and offers a power reserve of approximately 68 to 72 hours. Some owners expressed disappointment with the removal of the five stars from the dial, and one reviewer noted that some numerals are partially cut off by the subdials. The watch is priced around $5,350 to $5,550 USD. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Longines Spirit Pilot Flyback highly for its improved dimensions, finishing, and value proposition.

The YEMA x Silberstein Marine 2 CMM.20 Limited Edition is noted for its slim 39mm case and in-house CMM.20 micro-rotor movement, offering 300 meters of water resistance and a 70-hour power reserve. Reviewers highlight the watch's thin profile and flowing case design, as well as its black lacquered enamel dial. However, the bezel's lack of numbers is considered a practical drawback, and one reviewer noted the audible spin of the micro-rotor, which was unexpected given the €1,990 price for the 200-piece limited edition. The included leather strap is also seen as less suited for the watch's dive capabilities. Overall, reviewers appreciate the YEMA x Silberstein Marine 2 CMM.20 Limited Edition for its slim design and in-house movement, though practical considerations regarding the bezel and strap are noted.
