Elegance, character and purity are the pillars of The Longines Master Collection, which is aimed at those who love the exceptional

A singular alchemy occurs when purely feminine elegance meets the world of watchmaking complications. The energy this generates is cyclical and recurring, and a constant source of inspiration for the designers and watchmakers of the winged hourglass brand, who wanted to expand The Longines Master Collection with a piece that is as feminine as it is technical.

The case now comes in a 34 mm diameter with a choice of different coloured straps (red, blue, taupe) or a stainless steel bracelet designed to hang elegantly and comfortably. Elegance and utter simplicity, you might think… but hidden in this timepiece, a moon phase display and date hand at 6 o'clock. The addition of this complication is delicate and has called for painstaking work to ensure the harmonious proportions of the case.

Observable through a sapphire glass, the exclusive L899.5 automatic calibre is fitted with a silicon balance-spring that is light, non-magnetic, hard-wearing, stainless and impervious to thermal expansion. The timepieces driven by this movement benefit from a 5-year warranty, a proof of reliability.

On the visible side, the mother-of-pearl dial rivals the diamond hour markers in subtlety. It is also available in sunray blue, and purists will appreciate the now classic and unmistakable silver "barleycorn" pattern, emblematic of The Longines Master Collection.

These new models aspire to adorn the wrist of a woman with a strong will and character. To be able to offer her the Moon is a real privilege. This requires a heart packed with outstanding technology, beating to the rhythm of elegance and femininity, in the purest watchmaking tradition.
