The 18-carat satin-finished yellow gold case shows two horsemen and their horses against a mountainous landscape. A laurel branch, symbol of victory, frames the scene.
Since the brand was founded in the 19th century, Longines has cultivated a genuine passion for equestrian sport with watches engraved with horses, riders and jockeys.
