Longines Spirit Zulu Time iN Titanium
Longines expands its celebrated Spirit Zulu Time collection with a new 39mm titanium model, offering a blend of lightweight durability and classic GMT functionality. This latest addition, designed with adventurers and watch enthusiasts in mind, features a striking anthracite dial with gilt accents and a sleek, bi-directional ceramic bezel. Building on the success of previous models, this titanium Zulu Time continues the brand’s tradition of crafting versatile, reliable timepieces, now with an even more modern and refined aesthetic. Crafted from Grade 5 titanium, the case of the new Longines Spirit Zulu Time measures 39mm in diameter and 13.5mm in thickness, making it both robust and lightweight. The case’s overall structure is enhanced by its polished and brushed finishes, which emphasize the sharpness of its lines and add a subtle elegance to the watch. The design retains the classic integrated lugs, contributing to a comfortable fit on the wrist.
The caseback of this model is solid and screw-down, providing durability and protection for the movement within. The back also showcases a detailed engraving that reflects the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship and heritage.
It comes equipped with a bi-directional rotating bezel with a ceramic insert. The screw-down crown, adorned with the Longines logo, adds an extra layer of security. Water-resistance can reach up to 100 meters (330 feet).
Time is exhibited on a sandblasted anthracite with applied Arabic numerals and small cut-out diamond index markers beside them; while circling around the flange is a 60-minute scale with seconds/minutes markings. The gold-plated accents on the numerals and hands offer a luxurious touch that contrasts beautifully against the anthracite background, giving the watch a sophisticated yet sporty appearance.
At the center of the dial, the black GMT hand, tipped in a striking red, adds a pop of color and ensures easy tracking of a second time zone. The dial also features a date window subtly positioned at 6 o’clock, maintaining the watch’s balanced and symmetrical design. The signature “five stars” emblem, located above the date, symbolizes the high quality and reliability of the Longines Spirit collection.
Completing the dial’s design is the applied Longines logo, positioned beneath the 12 o’clock marker, reinforcing the brand’s legacy and attention to detail. The black bi-directional ceramic bezel frames the dial perfectly, with its lacquered numerals adding a subtle yet elegant finish to this well-crafted timepiece.
