Les Elégantes de Longines
Written by Chuck Peterson
We have thought long and hard about what to put up for our 400th article. We have come a long way from when JewelersLounge.com first started. We are now proud to have become a premier luxury watch blog. Now on to the watch…
This Longines Diamond watch is unique. We are starting to see a new trend in the gold within the watches. I see more red/pink/rose and white gold as opposed to the usual yellow gold. We are also seeing people move away from ETA movements. We will write about this later….
Worthy representatives of the Art Deco movement, the Elégantes de Longines pay a new tribute to this creative source in the form of three shimmering white gold jewelery watches, each limited to 20 pieces. Presented this year in oval, rectangular and tonneau shapes, they are true to tradition with their authentic manufacture-made movements dating from the 1970′s.
