Throughout this season, all eyes will be on the Norwegian Aksel Lund Svindal, the previous winner of the Overall World Cup, the Super-G crystal globe as well as the gold medal in Super Combined at the World Championships in Val d' Isère. Longines would like to take this opportunity to wish its ambassador of elegance every success during the coming season.



Throughout the 2009-2010 season Longines presents the Admiral model from the Longines Sport Collection. It evokes the prestigious dimension of sports, in which aesthetic and precision predominate. The frequent travelers and the adventurers will especially appreciate the 24h (second time zone) watches.
