Longest lasting

Which of these records is filed under the longest keeping class?

Provisional data

The scores, keeping classes, rarity values, and use tags behind these picks on this site are unsourced placeholders, not measurements or tested advice. Nothing here has been tasted, verified, or reviewed. Values may change or be replaced once research and editorial review land.

How these three were chosen

Rule: Every record, ranked by keeping class with long before medium before short, then by crispness from highest to lowest, ties broken by display name from A to Z.

Ranked by
keeping class, then crispness, then display name from A to Z
Scope
Every record, with no use-tag requirement.

The rule is applied to the provisional 1-5 fixture numbers, so this ordering is arithmetic on placeholders, not a recommendation.
