LONGINES HAS UNVEILED AN EXCITING EXPANSION TO ITS RENOWNED FLAGSHIP HERITAGE COLLECTION THIS YEAR, INTRODUCING THREE EXQUISITE NEW VERSIONS THAT BOAST AN IMPRESSIVE MOON-PHASE COMPLICATION. THE TIMELESS ALLURE AND SOPHISTICATED SIMPLICITY OF THE FLAGSHIP MODELS HAVE SOLIDIFIED THEIR STATUS AS A TRUE CLASSIC IN THE LONGINES LINE-UP. 

In terms of design, these new additions feature an understated yet captivating aesthetic. Crafted with utmost precision, the stainless steel case measures 38.5 mm in diameter, with a screw-down back that ensures secure protection. Notably, the redesign incorporates satin-brushed finishes and shortened chamfered lugs, resulting in a watch that is perfectly proportioned to adorn any wrist.

One cannot overlook the distinctive domed dials, which draw inspiration from the original 1957 watch. Available in three captivating options—silvered opaline, sunray silver, and sunray blue—the dials are further enhanced by 11 meticulously applied hour markers, available in gilt or silvered finishes. The elongated hour markers gracefully extend at 3, 9, and 12 o’clock positions. Meanwhile, the hands for hours and minutes, boasting gilt or silvered polish, are coated with SuperLumiNova® for exceptional readability regardless of the lighting conditions, be it day or night.
