About Longines Dolce Vita Watches
"Dolce Vita" is an Italian phrase that translates to "sweet life" or "good life" in English. The Longines Dolce Vita collection pays homage to the glamorous and carefree spirit of the Italian Riviera during the 1950s and 1960s, a period characterized by luxurious living, fashion, and a sense of style.
The design of the DolceVita watches incorporates elements of Art Deco, an artistic and architectural movement that flourished during the early 20th century. This influence is evident in the collection's rectangular case shape, clean lines, and geometric details.
Longines adorns some of the watches in this collection with diamonds, adding a touch of glamor and opulence to the already exquisite timepieces. You'll find models with exquisite mother-of-pearl dials, intricate sunray or guilloché patterns, and other decorative elements on the dials and cases. The Dolce Vita collection caters to those who appreciate classic designs.
If you're looking for a perfect balance between tradition and innovation, the Longines Master collection offers a variety of timepieces, from simple, timeless watches to sophisticated complications like moon phases and chronographs.
Dolce Vita watches have been associated with various iconic moments and events, from red-carpet appearances to glamorous soirées, reinforcing its status as a watch of choice for those who appreciate refined luxury.

Today, the Longines DolceVita collection stands as a testament to the enduring allure of Italian-inspired elegance and Art Deco design.
