The Pilot's Majetech is one of LONGINES' most famous tool watches. Looking back, this watch was introduced in 1935. As its name suggests, it was originally designed for aviators and has attracted many people with its simple, highly readable construction and high functionality. After disappearing from the watch market for a while, it was revived last year and has been attracting a lot of attention.
This updated version of the watch features a 43mm diameter case made of grade 5 titanium. This alloy is known to be harder and lighter than ordinary titanium.
As with the earlier models, the rotating bezel is an indispensable element of the Longines brand.
The monotone face features a small seconds at 6 o'clock. A minute track surrounds the gray Arabic numerals coated with Super-LumiNova®. The back of the watch, engraved with the model's name and other information, also has a cool look.
The movement is the Longines Exclusive Caliber L893.6, which is anti-magnetic and boasts a power reserve of approximately 72 hours, and is chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute) not as a movement alone, but as a watch. It provides stable performance.
