High-Frequency Dive Watch, The Longines Ultra-Vhron

Ultra-Accuracy, Ultra-Resistance, and Ultra-Chronometry are the main attributes of the Longines Ultra-Chron. Which of these do you relate most to in your life? I’m going to go with Ultra-Resistance. Over the last 16 years of being in this industry as an 18-year-old, it takes a certain kind of character to not be affected by naysayers. People, whether close to you or not, will sometimes try and bring you down. You got to build resilience and, in turn, resistance to keep moving forward. I might have been very broken if I only had half the resistance I did in my early years in the industry.

The Longines Ultra-Chron is Longines’ next-generation dive watch designed to handle whatever is thrown at it with ease. How much do you appreciate such a creation as someone who leads an active lifestyle? I can always appreciate such an intricate thing of beauty that has been crafted with the fullest attention to detail. I resonate with that because as a presenter who deals with content day in and day out, I need to make sure I don’t miss out on any bits of details for my audience. Such is the respect and love I have for my craft of hosting and radio.
