VIDEO: Longines and ski timekeeping, a match made in the mountains a very long time ago…
When you visit the heart and home of Longines, at Saint Imier in the Switzerland’s Jura valley, the brand’s link with skiing is immediately demystified.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 4th August, 2017 – the fashion edition
Bear with me this week as I go a little off script. This week’s Wind Down is less about watches and more about all the stuff around them. Fashion. Technology. Business.
