Set up in 1997, the Longines Prize for Elegance is aimed at honouring the most elegant and charismatic gymnasts. Apart from purely technical considerations, the criteria are based rather on grace, harmonious movement and emotion during the performances.
Symbolising the contemporary elegance of the brand, the Longines DolceVita collection has been one of the stars at Antwerp. With its combination of sparkling diamonds, gleaming steel and glowing rose gold, the official watch for the event is fitted with a quartz caliber and features a white dial with ten rose pink hour symbols and one Arabic numeral. This contemporary rectangular timepiece is mounted on a bracelet of steel and rose gold and is set with 32 diamonds – a perfect illustration of the famous Longines slogan “Elegance is an attitude”.
