The golden dial, complemented by clear Arabic numerals and a precise minute track, ensures excellent legibility despite its elegant proportions. The recessed small seconds subdial adds depth and symmetry to the dial, subtly elevating the design beyond a simple two-hand watch. Powered by a reliable Swiss quartz movement, it offers effortless daily wear while preserving the aesthetic codes of traditional horology. A charming and tasteful piece, this Longines Small Seconds is ideal for collectors or enthusiasts who appreciate classic shapes, compact dress watches, and the enduring elegance that has defined Longines for nearly two centuries.
