The ribbon-cutting ceremony took place among an intimate group of special guests and media in front of the boutique, located at 3, rue de S\u00e8vres, on the Parisian Left Bank.<\/p>\n<p>The elegant environment of the boutique, covering 120 square meters, enhances the 500 models on display. It has a natural warm wooden interior with deep brown display cabinets, each branded with the Longines logo, giving the space a timeless atmosphere.

I have been an ambassador for the brand since 2008 and have been living numerous memorable moments with it: at Roland Garros of course, but also at other sports events and today at the inauguration of the very first Longines boutique in France. I think that its sophisticated atmosphere really fit to the elegance of Longines and its timepieces.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new Longines boutique is a modern interpretation of the brand\u2019s traditional values and about two centuries of craftsmanship. With each new boutique opening, Longines takes the opportunity to show different facets of its passion for elegance and constant innovation.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/812_3055.jpg\" alt=\"Inauguration Longines boutique -
