Longines, the Swiss watch brand with a history of over 190 years, is currently holding the 'Longines Archive Exhibition: The Trajectory of Watchmaking Spinning Time' at Cité du Temps Ginza in Tokyo. At the 'Longines Archive Exhibition Pop-up Store' adjacent to the venue, a special sale featuring reissue models inheriting Longines' heritage and pocket watches will be held from Friday, April 24, 2026, to the final day of the exhibition on Sunday, May 10. It will be a rare opportunity to view heritage pieces and panel displays that tell the story of history, alongside current models that inherit that tradition and spirit.
Furthermore, the pop-up store will feature a full lineup of the new 'HydroConquest' models, which have garnered high popularity since their launch at the end of March, including boutique-exclusive models. The archive exhibition will also convey the appeal of the collection by showcasing the original 'HydroConquest' model and diver's watches that served as the design roots for the new works.
Selling Timepieces that Carry on an Inherited Legacy
During the event, the 'Longines Archive Exhibition Pop-up Store' will link with 'Pioneering Spirit,' one of the themes of the 'Longines Archive Exhibition: The Trajectory of Watchmaking Spinning Time.' It will sell iconic pilot watches such as the 'Longines Lindbergh Hour Angle Watch,' a reissue of a historical masterpiece, and the 'Longines Avigation BigEye,' as timepieces that breathe the genealogy of pilot watches pioneered by Longines. It will also feature a variety of models from the popular 'Longines Spirit' collection. In line with the exhibition theme of 'Elegance,' timepieces filled with classic charm and pocket watches that are difficult to obtain today will be gathered. (*Quantities are limited)
