The rich technical heritage of Longines constitutes one of the components of its mastery in the sector of high competition. But sporting performance is not just a question of thousandths of a second or less: it is equally a matter of attitude, of spirit and or form. It is the elegance of the action that imparts that special, inimitable class to prestige sports. And it is that same elegance that Longines’ watchmaking craftsmen breathe into their timepieces, in their own way imbuing a performance marked by excellence...
