Longines | 190th anniversary

Mastering the measure of time… Since 190 years, the winged hourglass brand has ceaselessly striven to combine its quest for precision with an aesthetic standard that still underpins its identity today. Centuries-old craftsmanship forged in tradition, elegance and performance has raised Longines to the ranks of the great watchmakers.

To mark its 190th anniversary, Longines is presenting a series of three exclusive timepieces from the Master Collection, a line emblematic of its rich heritage. Combining classic elegance and excellence, these watches are available in stainless steel and gold. The 18-carat yellow gold and rose gold versions are presented in a limited, numbered edition of 190 to underline their exclusivity.

These new timepieces stand out aesthetically through their meticulous workmanship and the special care lavished on every detail. The grained anthracite, brushed grey or sandblasted silver dial is distinguished by a unique finish and delicately engraved Arabic numerals. Elegant pink, gilt or blued steel hands mark the passing hours, minutes and seconds, highlighting the dials’ refined purity. The 40mm round case with its classic design houses a Longines exclusive calibre with a silicon balance spring, guaranteeing high-precision. All the painstaking craftsmanship of this movement can be admired through the transparent back, which features a commemorative engraving. A soft, anthracite grey leather strap completes the style of these high-end timepieces.
