Longines Pilot Majetek first impression - new arrival

Awkward looking to many but unmistakably different, this might me a perfect weekend warrior for me! The case shape feels more like an hybrid between a dive watch and a pilot watch. One can even find (I personally do) some design resemblance with some Pane...

Very nice 👌 …

Sure is. Really love their vintage inspired collection…

Really like this one!

Thanks Ted.

That was fast! And, you are already experimenting with straps! Looks great and enjoy!

Thanks. I bought this direct as my AD was not going to get one for quite some time if at all. Great service I must say buying online from Longines

Congrats

I like the brand a lot. They have a lot of cool vintage inspired references!

Yes, there are some very cool and tempting ones.

I am enjoying discovering this brand!

Congrats on a nice acquisition! This watch is a handsome chonk and a credit to Longines for expanding their Heritage line to include historically based models that push past safe, mainstream aesthetics.

Thank you Bill! I think I will like it a lot! The dial is simply awesome!

I knew you would get this! ;))

And the dial is really cool! Now I need to order a few straps!

Congratulations. Imposing piece. It oozes quality. Among all the straps you have shown, the dark blue/black the best to my taste. Best.

Thanks. It does feels solid!

Looks better on the wrist than in the box. Congrats on this special piece. Enjoy!

Indeed. From the initial pictures I always preferred the one on a wrist…cheers

Did the seconds hand fall off (green strap)?

It's reflecting off black... LOL!

😉👍

You have a good eye Mike! Fortunately for me it’s just the lighting 😁! Cheers

Looks great, particularly that last shot +++

Thank you kindly

Lovely!

Thank you Filip! However I think this case will prefer straps that do not taper - aka 22mm at lug and buckle - similar to my panerais straps 😋🤪

Just as cool as when I first saw it 🤩

Totally! It certainly cannot be mistaken for something else!

Lovely watch...

Yeah it’s pretty cool with that one indeed! 🙏

Wow, another strap monster in your collection. ;) Congrats, my friend, and enjoy.

Thank you Nicolas.

Wow this one is cool!

It’s around 13mm. Not bad and less than a speedmaster for example. I think on a normal strap it’s very wearable (as with a Nato it adds to the thickness)

That is fantastic

👍👍 pleasure!

Congrats! It looks great on you and so versatile with the straps.

Thanks Fernando. Something different for sure!

You da man! That was fast; I’m waiting for mine. And all the strap changes are so cool 😎!👍👍🙌

Cool you’re getting one too! This is the type of reference that you either love or hate I guess! Cheers

Congrats! I rather like the massive metal case and smaller dial

Indeed there is something cool about the case design and the dial. Now on to find the perfect combo strap for it!
