Hands On: Longines Spirit Zulu Time 42 mm Watch Replica With Low Price

As a long-established watchmaking brand, Longines draws inspiration from aviation heritage to release the Spirit Forerunner watch in 2020. This series of watches is equipped with a self-winding movement certified by the Swiss Official Observatory (COSC), and offers different models such as three-hand calendar and chronograph. In 2022, Longines launched a new Longines Spirit Zulu Time 42 mm watch replica with dual time function following the aviation theme.

The Case

When it comes to aesthetics, the Spirit Zulu Time replica falls in line with the previous offerings in the Spirit collection. The 42mm stainless steel case features sharp lugs, an oversized crown, and a new bi-directional 24-hour bezel with a ceramic insert. The numerals on the insert are lacquered, and the triangle is filled with Super-LumiNova. 

The 42mm size is increased somewhat by the long lugs, giving the watch a 49mm wingspan. However, thanks to its 13.9mm height and downwards-sloping lugs, it hugs the wrist nicely. 

The Dial

The dial, visible through a domed and AR-coated sapphire crystal, has all the beautiful depth that you know, love, and expect from the Spirit line. The outer minute track features a distinctive brushed texture with a metal ring separating it from the main dial. Embossed diamond-shaped hour markers sit within that ring, aligning beautifully with the diamond-tipped sweeping seconds hand.

In line with the other models from the Longines Spirit replica collection, the retro-inspired dial focuses on legibility with applied luminescent Arabic numerals, diamond-shaped hour markers and baton hands. It comes in 3 different colours: matte black, anthracite sandblasted or sunray-brushed blue. The brand’s winged hourglass logo and the five stars appear in relief. The second time zone is indicated by a contrasting arrow-shaped hand linked to a 24-hour scale. The sapphire crystal is slightly domed and features anti-reflective coating on both sides.

The Movement

Inside the watch is the automatic calibre L844.4, an exclusive and extensively modified version of the calibre ETA A31. It is a chronometer whose precision is certified by the COSC. This movement runs at 25,200 vibrations per hour and features a silicon balance spring for antimagnetic properties. It comes with a comfortable, week-end proof, 72-hour power reserve. It displays the hours, minutes, seconds and the date via an aperture at 6 o’clock. Last and most importantly here, there is a 24-hour hand for the second time zone indication.

Conclusion

The Longines Spirit Zulu Time replica comes with a three-row stainless steel bracelet or a brown/beige/blue leather strap with a safety clasp, sophisticated, comfortable and sturdy. At the same time, the chain belt adopts a convenient replacement system, which can be quickly replaced in a few seconds without any tools.

Prices for the Spirit Zulu Time start at €2,680 on the leather strap, and range up to just under €3K on the steel bracelet. More information, please visit our latest replica Longines watch listing, we are selling almost all model AAA grade 1 :1 cloned Longines watches.
