FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS THE CLASSIC LONGINES AVIGATION BIG EYE COLUMN WHEEL FLIEGER CHRONOGRAPH WITH ORIGINAL BOX, HANG TAGS, AND BOOKLET.
-
CASE: MASSIVE SOLID STEEL CASE IN PRACTICALLY MINT CONDITION. THIS GUY MEASURES A LARGE 41mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING SIGNED OVERSIZED CROWN AND HEAVY DUTY PUMP PUSHERS. THE ALL BRUSHED FINISHING AND THE BEEFY PROPORTIONS GIVE THIS A REAL TOOL-WATCH FEEL.
-
DIAL: ONE OF THE MORE ICONIC FLIEGER DIALS WITH THOSE GORGEOUS LUMED ARABIC NUMERALS. BUT, IT’S THAT SUPER GROOVY BIG-EYE MINUTE TOTALIZER WHICH REALLY SETS THIS ONE APART. THERE’S NO WASTED SPACE OR UNNECESSARY TEXT ON THIS WELL EXECUTED FACE. ALL VIEWED UNDER A SUPER BUBBLY DOMED SAPPHIRE WHICH REALLY EXUDES VINTAGE COOL.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS MACHO FLIEGER IS POWERED BY THE LONGINES L688 IN-HOUSE COLUMN WHEEL AUTOMATIC CHRONO MOVEMENT. CHRONO ACTION IS SNAPPY, AND THIS PERFORMS ULTRA SMOOTH.
- THIS FLIEGER COMES ON ITS ORIGINAL 20mm LONGINES STRAP WITH VERY MINIMAL WEAR. THE AVIGATION BIG-EYE WAS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECES LONGINES HAS RELEASED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS. PULLING FROM ITS LEGENDARY BACK CATALOG, THIS IS A REISSUE OF A RARE FLIGHT CHRONO FROM THE WWII ERA. THIS MODEL PULLS TOGETHER THE VINTAGE FEEL OF A CLASSIC MILITARY FLIGHT CHRONO INTO A MORE MODERN WEARING PIECE. INCLUDED ARE THE INNER/OUTER BOX, THE ORIGINAL HANG TAG, AND BOOKLET. THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR ANY CHRONO FAN OR LONGINES COLLECTOR
