During the Longines Grosser Preis von Berlin, Longines had the pleasure to present its new second screen application, which is using the Longines Positioning System. It provides a live experience of horse races and real-time accuracy, as it produces detailed statistics about horses, such as average speed or intermediate time to tablet users.

This new application also allows the users to see the races on replay, providing additional data, essential to a younger audience, used to receive information anytime and anywhere. During the Longines Grosser Preis von Berlin day, Longines gave the opportunity to horse racing enthusiasts to discover and test the application in a dedicated area.

Longines is the Official Partner, Official Timekeeper and Official Watch of the Hoppegarten Racecourse and is proud to have lent its name to the highlight race of the day, the Longines Grosser Preis von Berlin, which saw the victory of Dschingis Secretridden by Adrie de Vries. The winning jockey, owner and trainer received a Longines watch to honor their performance.

Alongside the races, the Swiss watch brand organized the Longines Prize for Elegance and honored Helmut von Finck as the most elegant lady present at the racetrack. Longines also presented the Official Watch of the Longines Grosser Preis von Berlin, a new variation of The Longines Master Collection, displaying a sunray blue dial. This fashionable chromatic variation is perfectly in line with the classic and understated spirit of this collection. The elegant timepiece, housing a mechanical self-winding movement, is complimented by a blue alligator watch strap.
