The Longines Ultra-Chron Classic brings a sharp, modern edge to one of watchmaking’s most important technical milestones. Nearly sixty years after the first Ultra-Chron redefined accuracy, this 2025 evolution reimagines high-frequency watchmaking for a new generation. Beneath its domed silver sunray dial and vintage-inspired details beats a heart of pure technology: the Calibre L836.6, a self-winding movement oscillating at 36,000 vibrations per hour. This high-frequency mechanism, enhanced by a silicon balance spring and anti-magnetic protection ten times stronger than standard, ensures the Ultra-Chron Classic stays precise when others falter.  The new Longines Ultra-Chron is inspired by the aesthetic codes and professional diving features of the 1968 model. Photos courtesy of Longines. Certified by the Observatoire Chronométrique de Genève, the Ultra-Chron Classic isn’t just tested—it’s proven. Each finished watch undergoes a grueling 15-day evaluation across varying temperatures and positions to verify accuracy under real-world conditions. The result is a timepiece that bridges the artistry of 1967 with the technical prowess of now, where every vibration, every component, is engineered for resilience and refinement.  These chronometer-certified watches are powered by an exclusive Longines calibre equipped with a silicon balance spring and resistant to magnetic fields. Photos courtesy of Longines. With its sleek 37mm or 40mm stainless steel case and ultra-thin 11mm profile, the Ultra-Chron Classic wears like precision made visible. Alternating brushed and polished finishes give it quiet depth, while its reimagined bracelet and trapezoidal date window nod to the original with minimalist sophistication. In an age obsessed with excess, the Ultra-Chron Classic proves that clean, simple, and modern are the rarest details of all.
