Longines release a replica of a watch once used by the scientists on the Expéditions Polaires Françaises – Missions Paul-Emile Victor which began in the 1940′s with the purpose of exploring the coast of Greenland and the Adélie Coast.

The piece features a self-winding movement, the Calibre L619 with a power reserve of 42 hours. The wearers of the original model required practicality, therefore the styling was functional and utilitarian – just perfect for today’s vintage-inspired niche of the watch market which continues to grow.

In honour of its origins the Longines Expéditions Polaires Françaises – Missions Paul-Emile Victor watch features the names of the two locations, Greenland and Adélie engraved on the back of the stainless steel case and the piece in true Longines fashion is unfussy and classical.
