Being the Official Timekeeper of all events organized by the Meydan Group, Longines has been timing the nine races of the Dubai World Cup, held on Saturday 26 March, at the facilities of the Meydan Racecourse. This event marked the end of the Dubai international flat-racing season 2016.
On Saturday, the Dubai World Cup race was won by Victor Espinoza on California Chrome, while the other highlight of the day, the Dubai Sheema Classic presented by Longines saw the victory of Andrea Atzeni on Postponed. The winning jockeys, trainers and owners of these two races received Longines watches..
In line with its famous slogan “Elegance is an Attitude”, Longines honoured Abir Bennani as the Longines Most Elegant Lady of the racetrack. She was awarded Longines watch.
The Dubai World Cup offered the perfect opportunity to discover the Official Watch of the event, a model of The Longines Master Collection. This men chronograph features a refined silvered stamped barleycorn dial with a moonphase display and its transparent case back reveals the self-winding mechanical movement.
