TV spot equestrian sports 2012 "At the Heart of Passion" [00:31]
Longines sweeps you deep into the heart of the equestrian action in which it is today passionately involved. Its new commercial was shot in the grandiose setting of the Chantilly Racecourse, where Longines is the official timekeeper and where the Prix de Diane Longines is staged.

Jockey and mount are then but one... Celebrating its 180th anniversary in 2012, Longines is the invaluable partner of the world's most celebrated horse races.
