Longines and Equestrian Sports
LONGINES and the equestrian world were united by a timeless bond rooted in tradition, elegance, performance, and excellence. This enduring relationship began in the 19th century, shortly after the brand’s founding in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, and continued through Longines’ presence at prestigious equestrian institutions and events worldwide, reflecting a shared heritage shaped by precision and sporting excellence.
Across equestrian sport, Longines supported multiple disciplines that defined the sport’s diversity and skill. These included horse racing, driven by speed and competition; show jumping, demanding harmony and precision between horse and rider; eventing, combining dressage, jumping, and cross-country challenges; and dressage, where technical mastery met artistic expression.
A pioneer in sports timekeeping, Longines continuously raised standards of precision as a trusted partner of leading competitions worldwide. The brand remained engaged as Official Timekeeper and partner of events such as the Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™, Longines Global Champions Tour™, and major international racecourses, reinforcing its role in elevating equestrian sport on the global stage.
