During the Summer Festival at Longines Tops International Arena, the winged hourglass brand is proud to highlight the Longines DolceVita X YVY line. A new identity has been given to the iconic rectangular-shaped timepieces, with sophisticated leather straps. Referencing the equestrian world so dear to Longines, their design is evocative of bridles and harness.
As summer invites watch-wearers to bare their forearms and reveal the timepieces adorning them, Longines unveils its line of Longines DolceVita X YVY models. The Swiss watchmaker has matched its watches here with subtle double leather straps, in three shades: double beige leather, brown and with black with rivets. Dressed in this contemporary design accessory, the youthful and glamorous Longines DolceVita X YVY line adapts to the desires of every wearer, as well as the events of their day thanks to the interchangeable strap system. Although it can be worn on its own, when the slim, complementary strap is combined with the watch, they transform into a stylish object that will captivate and touch every generation.
The V22 range has taken a step further in innovation with the use of a multi-purpose foam designed for wearable impact protection. Its molecules instantly react upon impact to form a protective shell around the body, then returning to its resting state.
PORON ® XRD ® padding in Lami-Cell’s V22 Boots protects the horse from external impact, offers unrivalled shock absorption, and provides excellent support to further reduce injuries. The unique material feels remarkably soft until exposed to pressure or impact; at which time it hardens to protect the horse’s leg from external injury. This innovative material absorbs up to 90% of the impact energy.
Lami-Cell strives to be at the forefront of technology with a deep concern for the environment and the use of nontoxic materials that offer your horse the best protection.
