From Longines, presenting the Master Collection (ref. L2.714.4.78.5), a distinctive model that balances proportion, precision, and presence.

Mechanically, the watch prioritizes accuracy: the L697.2 caliber. The silhouette offers presence without excess, lending confidence in a range of situations. Finishing showcases disciplined attention to detail across facets, edges, and surfaces. For buyers researching specifications and real-world impressions, this reference stands out for coherent design, dependable mechanics, and lasting relevance within modern horology.
