VILLAGE KEEPER. Located in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, since 1832, Longines has established close links with the village that has seen the foundation and development of the company.
The company recently launched the Longines Saint-Imier Collection, a series of exceptional timepieces inspired by the foundations of the watchmaking tradition on which the brand has been built. The shape of the case – inspired by a model dating from 1945 – is a common theme throughout the collection. The sleek lines and the distinctive lugs provide these new models with a subtle balance between classical and contemporary design. All the models in this collection are fitted with mechanical movements whose intricate workings can be admired through the transparent sapphire back cover.
