Thank you so much for this review. Videos are still so rare for the 37mm. This is my next watch. And one of the reasons is, as you said, that it's so comfortable to read the time super quickly with the numerals. And all the rest is top notch anyways. Thanks again!
@@MinuteMon Hi, can you tell me where you've got the black nato strap from that can be seen at 00:42? Can't find this style of nato anymore, especially not in black without striping! Looks high quality! Thanks in advance!
We need more shots like the one you have at 6:11, those give a much better idea of the sizing than wrist rolls and such. Not sure why YT reviewers rarely do it.
Just got it. Same as yours, black dial on bracelet. I think I have a slightly larger wrist and I could probably wear the 40, but I love the classic sizing and the date positioning. So happy about it, I feel it will be my go-to watch for a long long time.
The 40mm titanium is my favorite Spirit, but this is a smart release. I do think it would be nice if they revised the other sizes to have a 6 o'clock date, though I am not sure how that would look with the same movement in the 42mm.
I've been trying to look for a watch that is overtly attractive. I know it isn't the only way, and probably not the best, but when I nerd out on watches that way I do, "does it look good with my personal style" is most often left behind in favor of things like movement, brand recognition, originality, history, Etc. This watch and its Zulu time counterpart are just good looking watches.
I think for most people including me, the fit / the look / design of the watch is the first priority. If I don’t like that, then everything else won’t matter. I realized that movement is actually one of my last priorities when looking at buying a watch these days
37mm is such a perfect size. I also love how they moved the date window to 6. The only thing I still don't like about the spirit is the 5 stars they put above the 6. It reminds me of the Amazon star ratings lol. Wish it just said Chronometer without the stars above it - it will make the dial less busy and look more refined
I put this watch (37 mm) in my bucket list from the first day it was released. And only now it's finally on my wrist. Perfect watch for me. On a bracelet.
Stunning. This is truly the full package. Look forward to trying it on wrist! And maybe borrowing some of your Grand Seiko straps in the process that you clearly have in excess. ;) As a typography nerd, what first hooked me are those arabic numerals. They are beautiful, and applied to boot. But everything else on the dial is also perfectly laid out. The Spirit series in general nails it; the GMT is flat out gorgeous (if too big for me).
I have 7in wrist so could wear both easily but would go 37mm. My main watch is a Reverso duoface medium, so I’ve been looking for a smaller daily wear/grab n go that isn’t too big in comparison to the JLC… and this ticks all the boxes to be honest. Just got to decide between the Tudor bb58 with a bezel or this with a date…
Good watch. Have the 40mm blue dial in leather strap around a year now. + Beautiful design + Top movement and power reserve + Lume on par with more expensive watches + 5 year warranty - Can hear some ticking noise on occasions. Not noticeable on the Black Bay but 2x the price. + Like Black Bay probably a very durable timepiece dropped the pilot once and glass not a scratch, movement, crown etc unaffected. + No vibration felt on wrist which can happen on cheaper/non-swiss watches. Fits almost all occasions and clothing. A staple watch for sure worn often no regets. Overall best pilot watch around $3k and next level is IWC pilot but 3x the price.
Nice review. I love the Spirt series, it’s the best of dress and sports. I picked up a Zulu spirt time, which is perfect my wrist just over 7. It’s great to see models in different sizes for different wrists. I’ve owned a variety of watches over the years, from Rolex to Zenith to IWC. I’m loving the Spirt, this is all you need.
Thank you for the great review and side by side comparison. I have to be honest I have never fancied any of the Longines watches until the 40mm Spirit! a while back I was in an AD, I put it on and disappointed with the long lug to lug distance of 50mm which is too much for a 40mm watch, that lug to lug distance is usually a 42 or 43mm watch territory! then came along the 37mm which is the absolute sweet spot! hence I ordered one and I am a happy. Thanks to you again. Your review made my buy it.
Nice, Longines are bringing out some great relaeses the last years.....just the issue with the (too) long lug to lug size stays...a dealbreaker for many
Always felt the Spirit was a dressier pilot watch; however, the polished hands and especially the 6:00 date window of the 37 elevates it even more which I like. I wish the 40 had similar details.
Thanks for the great review. I'm right on the edge of buying the 40mm but I do think the 50 mm lug to lug is too large even for my 7.25" wrist. The 37 mm size seems like it might be too small but the 49 mm lug end to end might make it acceptable. I have no where to try this on so it's a difficult decision.
Sorry but if the 40mm version have 50mm lug-to-lug, how is possible that the 37mm have 49mm lug-to-lug? There is not proportion at all. The 37mm version should have a maximum 46mm lug-to-lug width.
I tried the 42mm version in a watch store (the didn't have the smaller ones) and it looks amazgin, although a little too large. I can't wait to be able to try the smaller ones. This is a SURE BUY for me.
This checks a lot of boxes for me. I would really like a screw-down crown on it, though. It's always disappointing when features are removed for smaller versions of watches.
I used to think like you in the past and refuse buying watches if they didn’t have it. However, screw down crown is not that important. It does nothing to the water resistance and could possibly create more issues in the future, for example with the thread.
As someone who rotates between a vintage Longines 5-star Admiral and a Certina DS-1 Titanium...this is absolutely going to be the next watch I buy; it's like Longines read my mind, and they are hitting homers with their recent releases!
Hello sir, I totally confused with the available colours,which one I should chose? How about champagne dial ? How it looks? Because in photos & videos it doesn’t give proper justification.
Excellent review and great photography This one has been on my radar for a while and this might be the video that made up my mind Keep up the good work
Bought the blue dial in 40mm. The "long lugs" don't present a problem for my 7.5 inch wrist but I can see why there would be a problem for those with smaller wrists.
Both watches are excellent. I own the 40 but would definitely also wear the 37. In my opinion, the bracelet is the only aspect that is not top notch, but everything else is great.
Thank you for your video! I'm considering to buy this for the next watch and it's really tempting to me especially black dial & 37mm. Nowadays Im sick and tired by my 40mm submariner, and want to have mid size tool watch. Actually I experienced several longines wathes before, but this watch is quite diffent by its finishing and dimentional in dial compared with previous models! And I love your sense of humor in every 6th date in 6 hour position & 19mm lug strap of gs (because I have several 19mm straps too.. 😂😂) anyway, thank you for video again, and I subscribed!
Great video! I loved these Spirits when they came out originally but since then my enthusiasm cooled off a bit. I didn't consider looking closely at the 37mm because I thought it would look just too small. But this video completely changed my mind and now I have to try it somewhere. It looks great on the bracelet! So thanks but no thanks. :)
It is so different than a Aqua Terra. But that is good. I already have the 40mm version, it will never be symmetrical, but a beauty for its own with its highlights. I will buy AT next year
The domed crystal looks great on the 37. I do not think this is coming out of the standard parts bin. Kudos to Longines for the extra costs to make a smaller but no lesser watch.
Great review! I was on the fence until I watched this video and I just pulled the trigger with my AD. I loved the look on the rubber strap in the video, would you mind telling me where you got it from?
Go with the iwc as you'll keep looking at it and eventually buy it, Longines is a nice watch but iwc is thr king of pilot watches, the designs are better imo.
Everything I’ve read is that the bracelet has push pins, except one person on a forum who said it has screws, but split pins can look like screws if you don’t know any better. Are you positive it’s pin and collar? Did you size it yourself? Great review by the way, I’m hoping to pick one of these up later this year.
Yes I sized it myself, you are correct it is technically split pins - not pin and collar. Thanks for catching that. Yes sometimes the split pins looks like screws but Longines typically uses those split pins in their bracelets
Really great review and as others have said the best one out for the 37mm version. One bit of a correction though is that the hairspring is Silicon and NOT Silicone
Love it, but what makes this a "pilot's watch"?? I'm genuinely curious what's happening to watch categories right now, as to my eyes this is more a field watch than a pilot's watch.. Anyone?
Thank you very much for the great video and information. Could I please ask you, if you had the chance to only have a 37mm and you did not have the 40mm already, which color would you pick between the blue or the black dial? Also, What are your thoughts on each color? I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
If I didn’t have the blue I’d still go for the black dial. At least for my collection - I don’t have a lot of black dial watches and I think it matches the aesthetic of the Pilot watch the best.
@@MinuteMon Thank you immensely for the feedback. Although it’s hard to decide, I think I lean towards the black one as well as my next purchase. All the best to you and enjoy your watch in good health.
Great review. I had the 40mm in blue last year. I have a 7" wrist and the 40 felt a little too big even on my wrist. I flipped it and got the 37mm in black on a leather strap this year. The black date wheel on the blue annoyed me a little to although, I understand the 37 in blue now has a matching date wheel. The 37 is perfect. I much prefer the vintage aesthetic of the size and colour of my 37mm. The date at the 6 o'clock position just looks so much better as well.
Wish they had kept the screw down. Then it would be perfect. Its not a deal breaker though. However, its tough for me to buy when i can get a Hamilton Khaki automatic for 3 quarters of the price. Don’t get me wrong though, I still love it just can’t justify the price.
Hi! Pls help which brand to go.. between Longines and Hamilton? Because hamilton is much cheaper than longines. For example is the Hamilton Intra matic chrono vs the Longines Avigation big eye... Which holds more for value of money and the brand.... Thank you... Btw, already subscribed to ur channel...😊
Hi! Im thorn between this spirit 37mm black and the Tag heuer Aquaracer 200mm (40mm)... Can you pls help me to choose? I will highly appreciate it... Thank you
I heard from a Longines SA said that the lume on the 37mm is noticeably weaker than the 40mma and no screw-down crown on the 37mm but you're paying a higher price just for the bracelet. I really like the proportion of the 37mm but too bad it feels like a downgrade in spec!
I can believe the Lume would be weaker since the Lume plots on the 37mm are smaller anyways. Having a screw down crown for the 37mm would be nice but I’m still happy it is 100m water resistant either way and reduces the risk of over threading the crown.
Great review! The Spirit is such great watch, easily at the level of eg Black Bay or IWC Mark series. The quality is hugely underrated, unless you've had one on wrist. Unfortunately, while I had a 40mm, I couldn't get on with the lug-lug, even on 18cm wrists. But this 37, ideal. As you say, brilliant that Longines din't 'pink and shrink' it. A great, strong woman's watch or for men who prefer classic proportions, or need a smaller size. I hope we see more colours and maybe a 34mm.
I love the bracelet! The links feel more rounded since it’s smaller than the 40mm. I was also between the champagne & black dial but opted for black dial as I have a lot of light colored dials in my collection already
is it just me or I think that the 40 mm version still looks great on you? in the end it is a pilot watch as they used to be bigger and more legible back in the glory aviation days! I want to point out that I prefer the bead blasted hands of the 40 mm version in comparison to the polished hands in 37 mm version! Also the screw down crown helps define its aesthetics! the only negative of the 40 mm version is the no micro adjustment on its bracelet and the date wheel at 3 o clock! all in all for me the 40 mm version excels as a pilot aesthetics watch while the 37 mm is preferable as a more elegant and refined watch. But for the nostalgy of aviation never sell your 40 mm!
The 40mm works, but I prefer the smaller size of the 37mm since it fits the confines of my wrist better. I don't disagree with your other points though, its a great watch!
37mm is a perfect size for wrists 7 inches and smaller. I prefer the 37 to the 40 - Longines made a great looking pilot's watch!
Thank you so much for this review. Videos are still so rare for the 37mm. This is my next watch. And one of the reasons is, as you said, that it's so comfortable to read the time super quickly with the numerals. And all the rest is top notch anyways. Thanks again!

@@MinuteMon Hi, can you tell me where you've got the black nato strap from that can be seen at 00:42? Can't find this style of nato anymore, especially not in black without striping! Looks high quality!
Thanks in advance!
Your review made up my mind to seriously consider the 37mm over the 40mm. We have practically the same wrist size(6.5”). Well done 👍🏼👍🏼
Do it I have a 6.75 and it is perfecr
This will be my next watch. Almost pulled the trigger on BB58, but Longines just hit it out of the ball park with this watch. Well done.
Truthfully - both the Tudor BB58 & the Longines Spirit are great watches. Can’t go wrong with either!
We need more shots like the one you have at 6:11, those give a much better idea of the sizing than wrist rolls and such. Not sure why YT reviewers rarely do it.
I’m surprised by how nice the smaller version is! Looks great even on bigger wrists. I’m sure it’ll look great on custom straps as well.
I have a big wrist, and wearing 37mm right now looks amazing! The long lugs make it wear like 40mm
37!!!! perfect for us guys with smaller wrists! thank you for making this, truly helps me!
the champagne colorway is the one I am eyeing!
You brought it ?

This may be my next watch, I have struggled to find something for my 6.25" wrist and this looks perfect
I agree with you about the efficiency of Arabic numerals. Great review as always!
The 37mm with that 6 o'clock date is just, plain and simple, perfect.

Go with the iwc as you'll keep looking at it and eventually buy it, Longines is a nice watch but iwc is thr king of pilot watches, the designs are better imo.
It is the perfect watch!
Does the leather strap have the quick release strap option as well to quickly switch to a bracelet? Very well done review.

Also which brand between Longines & Hamilton is more high end? Thank you
Longines
Thanks for the review. How would you compare this to a BB36? Does it have a similar fit on the bracelet?
I haven’t tried comparing with the BB36 so I’m not sure at the moment but I’m sure this Spirit 37mm with its lugs will still wear larger than that
Which dial colour is fantastic,Champagne or blue ? Videos & pictures doesn’t give justification.
Love the woven NATO, great fit for the watch, who makes that strap?

I can believe the Lume would be weaker since the Lume plots on the 37mm are smaller anyways. Having a screw down crown for the 37mm would be nice but I’m still happy it is 100m water resistant either way and reduces the risk of over threading the crown.
Great review! The Spirit is such great watch, easily at the level of eg Black Bay or IWC Mark series. The quality is hugely underrated, unless you've had one on wrist. Unfortunately, while I had a 40mm, I couldn't get on with the lug-lug, even on 18cm wrists. But this 37, ideal. As you say, brilliant that Longines din't 'pink and shrink' it. A great, strong woman's watch or for men who prefer classic proportions, or need a smaller size. I hope we see more colours and maybe a 34mm.
Couldn’t agree more!
Love the 37mm spirit debating on whether to get the champagne or black dial both are stunning. How’s the bracelet quality I heard it’s great.
I love the bracelet! The links feel more rounded since it’s smaller than the 40mm. I was also between the champagne & black dial but opted for black dial as I have a lot of light colored dials in my collection already
What black leather strap is that with the white stitching? I love that strap.
37mm watch 👍👍👍👍👍
Hopefully with Duratex Titanium
Nice watch. I don’t really see a pilot’s watch, however. It has much more of a field watch aesthetic IMO.
I would agree
Excellent review thx! Which case color would you rate as more “classy”? Black or champagne? Can’t decide 😂
Champagne! I wear that more than the black dial now 😆
This or Sinn 556i for a daily?
I hope that Longines produce a 37mm Spirit Titanium without the date.
is it just me or I think that the 40 mm version still looks great on you? in the end it is a pilot watch as they used to be bigger and more legible back in the glory aviation days! I want to point out that I prefer the bead blasted hands of the 40 mm version in comparison to the polished hands in 37 mm version! Also the screw down crown helps define its aesthetics! the only negative of the 40 mm version is the no micro adjustment on its bracelet and the date wheel at 3 o clock! all in all for me the 40 mm version excels as a pilot aesthetics watch while the 37 mm is preferable as a more elegant and refined watch. But for the nostalgy of aviation never sell your 40 mm!
The 40mm works, but I prefer the smaller size of the 37mm since it fits the confines of my wrist better. I don't disagree with your other points though, its a great watch!
@@MinuteMon Enjoy your both timepieces! I subscribe to you!
beautiful
