Official description

To celebrate the Year of the Dragon in 2024, Longines has launched a special edition of its FLAGSHIP HERITAGE moonphase model. Renowned Chinese artist Zinan Lam was invited to create the special design, which features an auspicious dragon with its head raised and soaring upwards, intricately engraved on the case back. This is the first Asian Zodiac timepiece ever to be launched by Longines, in a limited edition of 888 pieces.

One of the most significant figures in Asian culture, the dragon has long been a symbol of nobility, power and courage, representing invincibility and good fortune. Inspired by astrology and the ancient oracle bone script – the oldest known form of Chinese writing – related to the dragon, Longines has partnered with Chinese artist Zinan Lam to create a dragon emblem in celebration of the upcoming Year of the Dragon in 2024.
