An inventive construction that reads to a tenth of a second at the hand tip, on the principle of a vernier scale. Fitted with the flyback Cal.538, a descendant of the celebrated 13ZN. An asymmetric dial that makes it a historic collector's piece.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— The idea behind the Nonius —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA tenth-of-a-second scale is laid along the tip of the chronograph hand, so that readings can be taken to 0.1 second on the principle of a vernier caliper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt made a precision of reading impossible on an ordinary chronograph — and that originality is why it is called the Nonius, the vernier chronograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— The beauty of calibre 538 —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCal.538 is built on Cal.CH30, the flyback movement that succeeded Longines' famous Cal.13ZN.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt carries forward the lineage of Longines chronograph engineering while combining beautiful bevelling and finishing with real practicality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— The appeal of asymmetry —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere most watches put the brand logo at twelve, this one sets it at nine. A single 30-minute register sits at three, and the asymmetric layout is the model's signature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVisual character and function live together here, and the result is an iconic collector's piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— The name \"Nonius\" —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbroad the watch is called the Nonius, after the Portuguese mathematician Pedro Nunes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a fitting name for a model that brought the idea of precise measurement into a wristwatch, and one that stands for Longines' appetite for technical enquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LONGINES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40604460384385,"sku":null,"price":868000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/4313\/6385\/files\/IMG_20260104_155840.jpg?v=1769874851","url":"https:\/\/watchtenderjapan.com\/en\/products\/%e3%83%ad%e3%83%b3%e3%82%b8%e3%83%b3-%e3%83%95%e3%83%a9%e3%82%a4%e3%83%90%e3%83%83%e3%82%af-%e3%83%8e%e3%82%ae%e3%82%b9%e3%82%af%e3%83%ad%e3%83%8e-ref-8225-1-longines-nonius","provider":"WatchTender","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
