If you’re the type of watch enthusiast that really enjoys vintage reissues, you’re likely already very familiar with the excellent Longines Heritage line. Even if you’re not particularly fond of this extremely popular and ever growing watch genre, chances are there’s a watch in the Heritage line that speaks to you. I speak from personal experience: when it comes to watches I’d personally consider owning, straight up vintage reinterpretations generally don’t do it for me. But the execution on many of the recent Longines releases is so good, well, I might not exactly be a convert, but I can see the appeal in a way I hadn’t before. Part of it, maybe the biggest part, is Longines’ uncanny ability to pick and choose just the right pieces to bring back. They are great curators of their own back-catalog, and that’s proven once again with the newest pair of releases, the Heritage Classic Tuxedo watches.
