Longines Lindbergh Hour Angle

It´s the first Longines that i include in this Luxury Watch blog.
A partnership between Longines and Lindbergh gave birth to the Longines Lindbergh Hour Angle.Turn the 47.5mm case of gold on its back and open the hinged engraved back for a view of the Longines caliber L699 (Valgranges A07111 base) through sapphire crystal. Place it on your wrist with a durable brown leather strap and view the white lacquered dial, which presents black painted double minute track, black painted Roman numerals, and blue painted degrees in Arabic numerals. The rotating center dial allows for synchronization of the seconds hand with radio time, and indication of longitude (in degrees and minutes of arc) may be determined in conjunction with the bezel. A truly marvellous wrist watch from Longines.
