What is the Longines Flagship?

The Longines Flagship is a stainless steel automatic dress watch, and Longines calls it one of its very first collections. The brand launched it in 1957 and files it as Flagship Classic, in its Elegance family beside DolceVita and La Grande Classique. The name comes from the flagship of a fleet, the ship that flies the commanding officer's flag. Every Longines Flagship at La Maison Monaco is automatic with a stainless steel case. Nearly all come on a metal bracelet, in plain steel or two-tone steel with a yellow or red PVD coating, and a few are on an alligator strap.

Which Longines Flagship size and movement should I choose?

Choose the size first, because it sets the movement. The 38.5 mm and 40 mm watches are the men's and unisex sizes: self-winding at 25,200 vph with a silicon balance-spring and up to 72 hours of power reserve. The 30 mm and 26 mm are women's sizes, running at 28,800 vph with up to 45 hours. Examples from our catalog: the 38.5 mm L49744126 is $2,500, the 40 mm L49844792 on alligator is $2,650, the 30 mm L43744792 is $2,350 and the 26 mm L42744126 is $2,300. White dials make up about half of the range, with blue, black, champagne and green among the others.

Is the Longines Flagship a good dress watch?

Yes. The Longines Flagship suits anyone who wants a classic dress watch for daily wear. Longines fits it with a sapphire crystal, a silicon balance-spring and, on bracelet models, a triple safety folding clasp. It is rated 3 bar, about 30 m, so it handles rain and hand washing but is best kept away from pools and hot showers. The 38.5 mm and 40 mm run up to 72 hours between windings, which covers a weekend off the wrist.

Which Longines Flagship size should I choose: 26, 30, 38.5 or 40 mm?

Choose the 26 mm or 30 mm Longines Flagship for a women's size, and the 38.5 mm or 40 mm for a men's or unisex size. The 38.5 mm is the more compact of the two larger sizes and the 40 mm has the larger dial. The two larger sizes offer up to 72 hours of power reserve, the two smaller sizes up to 45 hours.

What is the difference between Longines Flagship Classic and Flagship Heritage?

Longines Flagship Heritage is a separate Longines collection from the Flagship Classic. It comes in one 38.5 mm size on an alligator strap, as a date version with 50 hours of power reserve or a moonphase with 72 hours, with a hand-painted enamel caravel on an 18-carat gold medallion in the screw-down case back. The Longines Flagship Classic comes in 26, 30, 38.5 and 40 mm, mostly on a metal bracelet.

Is the Longines Flagship water resistant, and can I swim with it?

The Longines Flagship is water resistant to 3 bar (30 m), which covers rain, splashes and hand washing but not swimming, showering or diving. For time in the water, Longines makes dedicated dive watches such as the Longines HydroConquest and the Longines Legend Diver, both available at La Maison Monaco. Have the Flagship's seals checked at each service.
