The Charles Lindbergh Hour Angle watch from Longines is a timepiece with a story on its back. Back in 1927, the aviator’s 33-hour flight had been timed by Longines.
After achieving a world first with his solo transatlantic flight from New York to Paris, Lindbergh came up with the design of the self-winding Hour Angle watch. Fast forward 83 years and the watch today is a re-issue in the original size created in that moment of triumph – by a man who flew himself into the record books.
