[品牌新闻]Longines evidenza XXL – An expanding universe

Longines evidenza XXL – An expanding universe Since its launch in 2004, the Longines evidenza collection has been received with enthusiasm all over the world. Applauded as much for the classical elegance of its tonneau case as for its strictly horological attributes, it shows that technology can express itself in an entirely elegant and refined manner. Its success has led Longines to extend the line to include XXL-size watches for men. The Longines evidenza collection takes its inspiration from the dynamic renewal of the fine arts and the artistic exploration that made the 1920s such a lively and exciting period. This was the age of Art Déco, which culminated in 1925 in Paris with the famous exhibition from which it takes its name, the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, in which Longines took part. Anticipating one of the principal trends of the future, Longines had already begun to make its first tonneau-shaped watches in 1911. This exceptionally productive period, also known as « The Wild & Crazy Years », saw the arrival on the global stage of jazz and cinema, the growing power of the automobile with the accompanying rattle and roar of open touring cars, and the beginnings of civil aviation, not to mention the explosion of audacious new fashions and tastes in literature, fine arts and theatre. Transforming refinement into pleasure, the Longines evidenza collection is a perfect homage to the 1920s, that fabulous age of artistic creativity and the spectacular emergence of styles and fashions. Over the years, exceptional figures have become associated with this time, among them Humphrey Bogart and Audrey Hepburn, whose charisma and distinction embody so successfully the elegance that Longines represents today. In point of fact, didn’t Bogart himself wear a Longines watch in those years ? Exhibiting exuberant pride in its sizeToday, the sheer exuberance expressed in its size is the key to the seductive allure of the Longines evidenza. Its generous new stature allows this latest variation to affirm an elegance and refinement that is worn easily and convincingly on the wrist. With its enhanced dimensions, this new interpretation contributes to the formation of a serene and contemporary masculinity.

Fitted with a caliber L074 quartz movement, the Longines evidenza XXL features a date aperture that emphasizes its masculine look and feel. Presenting itself in this way, the watch becomes that of a man living in a modern world in which elegance finds its place. It is offered with different dials, which lend it unique character : a silvered dial with blued steel Arabic numerals, a black dial with silvered Roman numerals. Reinforcing its impressive size are dedicated bracelets in stainless steel and genuine brown or black leather.
Longines evidenza—an increasingly varied collection, attentive to the needs of all its markets, traditional and emerging, on all continents. The elegance of its curved tonneau lines, fashioned in 18 carat yellow or red gold or in stainless steel, the seductive prestige of diamond-set models, a choice of numerous mechanical complications and of different sizes. Here, the real values inherent in the watchmaking tradition are clearly evident, signed by the name that conquered and has continued to earn the world’s admiration for centuries.
