Planes Wine and Watches

Hi all just had a weekend away to attend a wedding in the wine growing region called Blenheim which is at the top of the South Island of New Zealand. If you are planning on visiting NZ would recommend that you visit this area.
Air NZ flies the ATR27 on this regional route.
What is the flight time recorded on my Longines Hydroconquest.
Will give a thumbs up to the correct answer. PS for a bit of fun.

One beautiful Longines. One the map, it looks like a short flight. If just counting air time (take off + landing), I am going with an hour and twenty-seven. I want to say 1:30, but figured I would go a little less.

Very Close have a good look again and good luck 🤞
I'd like to say 45 minutes flight, give or take? When I hear short flight time, I think of 45 minutes. 15 minutes take-off, 15 minutes flight, 15 minutes landing. So....did I get right?

Great effort but not close AllTheWatches is very close just off by 1 minute and a few seconds have another go 🤔😀

I counted 42 225 liter new French oak barrels & 1 2000 liter neutral French oak storage amphora 🙄
1:27:38
Or 1:26:38 if the Longines minute register changes gradually and doesn't move in discrete minute increments like most chronos.
