Hands-on: LONGINES Heritage Classic – Tuxedo – Chronograph. Let’s dance & celebrate.

The new Longines Heritage Classic – Tuxedo creations – one with 3 hands (the video will follow in the next days) and the chronograph shown in this video – are inspired by two historic pieces designed in the spirit of their time. Longines herewith once again combines the original aesthetics of its most remarkable historic models with the most modern watchmaking techniques.
