LONGINES Column-Wheel Single Push-Piece Chronograph

Longines celebrates 2012 under the sign of its 180th anniversary.

The house of St. Imier takes this opportunity to present limited edition commemorative models, like so many worthy heirs of watchmaking expertise.

Timeless elegance is in the spotlight with The Longines Column-Wheel Chronograph Single Push-Piece 180th Anniversary Limited Edition, a tribute to the first wrist chronograph developed by Longines in 1913.

With its exclusive chronograph movement with column wheel, powered by its single push, the counting of seconds and minutes is easy.

From a careful design, the white dial and painted red number 12 refers to the dial Agassiz period, while moving the handles of the bracelet are part of its prestigious heritage.

A rose gold model limited to 180 numbered pieces.

Price range: 4100 to 7500 Euros
