Master Collection 40mm

How it wears

Wears true to its 40 mm case size

Longines Master Collection 40mm measures 46.8 mm lug-to-lug on a 40 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.17 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 54% of the 7,413 watches in this database and shorter than 42% of the 495 Longines watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 52 mm (2.05 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 63 mm (2.48 in) it starts to look compact. Below 46.8 mm (1.84 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 9.35 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 89% of the watches with a listed thickness.
