The Longines Master Collection L2.449.4.97.6, launched in 2026, represents an evolution within the Master Collection series. This model maintains the classic aesthetic characteristic of the range but boasts improved case dimensions and modernized dial designs, offering a more defined and up-to-date look. Its round stainless steel case is adorned with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal featuring multiple layers of anti-reflective treatment on both surfaces. With a water resistance level of 30 meters, this timepiece is also equipped with a stainless steel bracelet, which is secured by a triple safety folding clasp that includes a push-piece opening and a fine adjustment capability. The dial showcases a frosted blue finish with a sunray pattern and is embellished with 11 Top Wesselton VS-SI diamonds, totaling 0.047 carats, as hour markers. Silver-polished hands serve to indicate the hours, minutes, and seconds, complemented by a date window at 3 o'clock. The watch is driven by the Longines calibre L592, a self-winding mechanical movement operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour. This movement features a monocrystalline silicon balance spring and boasts an approximate power reserve of 45 hours.
