Longines Record collection

The Longines Record Collection represents a significant milestone in the brand's dedication to accuracy, craftsmanship, and traditional Swiss watchmaking. Launched in 2017, the collection was designed to showcase Longines' expertise in precision timekeeping, with each model in the series certified as a chronometer by the prestigious COSC. The Record Collection combines the brand’s rich heritage with modern advancements, offering a blend of elegance, high performance, and reliability. It is aimed at those who value precision and classic design in their timepieces.

Features And Design

The Record Collection features a timeless design with a variety of case sizes, ranging from 26mm to 40mm, catering to both men and women. The watches are crafted from high-quality stainless steel or a combination of steel and 18k gold, which adds a luxurious touch. The dials are available in a variety of finishes, including white, blue, black, and mother-of-pearl, often adorned with diamond indices, Arabic numerals, or Roman numerals, enhancing their classic and elegant aesthetic.

Each timepiece in the collection is equipped with sapphire crystal glass, ensuring scratch resistance and providing excellent clarity. The watches are also water-resistant up to 30 metres, adding a level of durability to their refined appearance. The Record Collection offers both men's and women's models, with variations in dial design, case size, and material. Some models also come with diamond-set bezels, elevating the luxury feel of the collection. The minimalist yet sophisticated design, combined with precise craftsmanship, makes the Record Collection a standout in Longines' offerings.

Iterations And Movements

At the heart of the Record Collection is the use of advanced mechanical movements. Most models are powered by the Longines calibre L888.4, an automatic movement with a silicon balance spring which ensures long-term reliability. The movement provides a 72-hour power reserve, making these watches not only beautiful but also highly functional.
