Story & Heritage Founded in 1832 in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, Longines is one of the most respected names in Swiss watchmaking, internationally recognized for its elegance, precision and long horological tradition. Throughout its history, Longines has combined technical innovation with refined aesthetics, creating watches that reflect both traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. The Rodolphe by Longines collection represents a particularly creative chapter in the brand's design heritage. Associated with designer Rodolphe Cattin, the collection explored unconventional shapes, decorative dials and jewellery-inspired bracelet constructions, bringing a distinctive artistic identity to Swiss wristwatch design. Rather than following the traditional appearance of a classic wristwatch, Rodolphe designs often emphasized sculptural forms, unusual proportions and the relationship between the watch case and bracelet. This particular example captures that philosophy beautifully. Its rounded stainless steel case, embossed white dial and integrated bracelet create a harmonious composition in which the watch becomes both a functional timepiece and a decorative design object. The original bracelet is especially noteworthy, featuring polished oval elements integrated into broad metal links, creating a distinctive architectural rhythm. Powered by a Swiss quartz movement, the watch combines reliable timekeeping technology with an expressive aesthetic characteristic of late-20th-century watch design. Today, Rodolphe by Longines watches appeal to collectors who appreciate unusual Swiss timepieces, vintage designer watches and distinctive jewellery-inspired creations. A sophisticated and unconventional vintage Swiss watch for collectors of Longines, Rodolphe designs and artistic horological objects. Internal Reference Number - FLO 221
