Praised for its countless (and often appealing) vintage re-editions, inspired by some glorious watches of the past, Longines last year relaunched an important historic initial watch, the Czech Initial watch known as “Majetek Vojenske Spravy” or more simply, the actual Pilot Majetek. A follow-up to a model of 2014, this re-introduction was done with style and boldness. It has become time for a limited edition made of titanium, with a more technical and monochromatic look, the particular Pilot Majetek Pioneer Edition.
The modern Longines Pilot Majetek, just like the 2014 Longines Heritage 1935, is a modern interpretation of the Longines Pilot Majetek Czech Start watch developed in the nineteen twenties and supplied to the Czechoslovakian Air Force in the 1930s. The watches were marked as Majetek Vojenske Spravy, meaning “property of military administration”, earning the Longines Majetek nickname among collectors. As Antlubis said within the previous post, “I believe Longines Vojenske would be a better name, converting into Longines Military and not Longines Property, but it is too late for that. ” History made it typically the Longines Majetek. So be it.
The 1935 model produced by Longines to fill often the order for the Czech army had a 40mm cushion-shaped stainless steel case, a black porcelain face with big white Arabic numerals, and a fluted turning bezel with an internal producer. Turning the exact bezel with the triangular marker and the crystal in unison, you can execute several simple but helpful moment functions. A big case was necessary to fit the pocketwatch calibre 15-94 and to operate it while using gloves. The watch was anti-magnetic, reliable as well as well-built to survive in a dangerous environment.
Like many modern reinterpretations of past models, Longines Flier Majetek did not go for a wholly faithful reproduction and brought last year the very steel Aviator Majetek, which was bolder, more technical, larger and overall more modern. That being said, it did bring an essential element that was missing from the 2014 edition: the moving bezel. This year, the collection has been extended having a special series in Grade 5 titanium, an alloy that is both lighter and also stronger than steel.
The new Longines Pilot Majetek Version most certainly advantages of the use of ti, as we are looking at a fairly large watch measuring 43mm in diameter, 13. 30mm tall and a substantial length of 51. 40mm. No need to say much, it is a bit pilot/military watch on the arm, with a presence that’s reinforced by the cushion shape of the case. That being said, titanium is about a third lighter compared to steel and it does participate in making this new Majetek Pioneer easier to wear. If you’re into oversized pilot’s watches, then you’ll be pleased. The case is mostly cleaned, adding the darker grey colour to this watch along with a more technical/instrument feel.
Faithful to the classic watch, the main Longines Preliminary Majetek is now back to its original construction with a fluted bidirectional bezel coupled to the internal fluorescent mobile triangle marker, or Starting Time Indicator. The latter is put under the blue crystal, that it is independent and on the dial. On the historic 1935 model, the bezel and the glass fitted with the sign rotated as a single unit. In this contemporary edition, the actual sapphire amazingly is fixed and contributes to the water-resistance of the brand new case.
This Majetek Leader Edition retains elements through the steel version, such as the solid back secured by four screws, any screw-in overhead with lateral guards and also a very decent 100m water-resistance. The side is home to an engraved “1935” commemorative tooth plaque, housing the particular patented gear mechanism for your bezel coupled with the triangular marker.
To match the specialized look of the titanium situation, this new Initial Majetek is fitted with some sort of black grained dial, with raised hour markers along with Arabic amounts coated within grey Super-LumiNova, with a bluish emission - compared to beige-toned SLN on the steel edition. The hands, as well as the track for the small seconds, undergo the same treatment with a greyish colour.

Inside the case is the calibre L893. 6, an automatic movement created specifically in addition to exclusively in order to power typically the Longines Traditions collection timepieces by ETA. It is chronometer-certified by COSC. It operates at 25, 200 vibrations/hour and has an energy reserve up to 72 hours, as well as antimagnetic properties with its silicon balance spring.
The final instrument-like touch comes from often the strap. No more retro-styled brown or dark green distressed leather strap here, but instead a dark technical fabric strap closed by a ti buckle. It comes in a special History box within the same colour.
