1982 marked the birth of the iconic Agassiz collection of the Longines brand of Swiss heritage. The solid gold models were a luxurious tribute to the founder of a brand which celebrated the 150th anniversary of the watch brand. Inspired by the same extravagant orchestration presented by the Agassiz, the La Grande Classique was defined a decade later in the year 1992 and treated as a refinement to the previous collection. The Longines La Grande Classique De Longines collection soon evolved into one of the most desired collections of the brand.
Longines has a multitude of devoted wearers and just as many famous brand ambassadors such as Simon Baker, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and Chi Lin Ling to name a few. Celebrated actress and Oscar winner Kate Winslet also holds the post of Ambassador of Elegance for the Longines brand and wears the stylish La Grande Classique model in stainless steel with a black lacquered dial set with diamonds.
Features
The La Grande Classique hosts a myriad collection of models that are suited for lovers of slim unambiguous beauty and finesse. It is offered in various sizes, worn by both men and women. The La Classique is available in various dial colours such as white, grey, lacquered black, gilded, and Mother of Pearl. Artistic Roman numerals or indexes are used to elevate the style of the timepiece. Among many noteworthy characteristics of the Longines Le Grande Classique is the ultra slim design of the case, a feature that endears this collection to men and women alike due to the stylish and comfortable habit of this watch. This has been achieved by incorporating the lugs of the bracelet into the back case, a design patented by Longines.
