Longines has expanded its Spirit Pilot collection with new matte blue dial variants for both the time-only Spirit Pilot and the Spirit Pilot Flyback chronograph. These new models maintain the existing case sizes and modern specifications while introducing a contemporary blue aesthetic, replacing the previous gilt-style accents with a cleaner, more modern look.
- 39mm stainless steel case for Spirit Pilot
- 39.5mm stainless steel case for Spirit Pilot Flyback
- 100m water resistance
- COSC-certified movements
- Available on bracelet or rubber strap
- Not a limited edition
The new variants feature a matte blue dial, with the chronograph also receiving a glossy blue ceramic bezel insert.
The shift from gilt-style accents to a modern aesthetic marks the latest generation of the Spirit Pilot as a decidedly modern product.
Both movements, the L888.4 and L792.4, are COSC-certified and feature silicon balance springs, exclusive to Longines and produced by ETA.
The bracelets include on-the-fly micro-adjustments in the clasp.
The time-only Spirit Pilot lacks a date window and the applied '5 stars' at 6 o'clock, presenting a cleaner dial.
The Spirit Pilot Flyback features a two-register layout with running seconds at 9 o'clock and a 30-minute elapsed-minutes register at 3 o'clock.
The Spirit Pilot Flyback's movement is visible through a transparent caseback, showcasing the column wheel and chronograph mechanism.
The Spirit Pilot Flyback's bidirectional rotating bezel has a new blue ceramic insert with a countdown timer.
