During the press conference, top models presented the various models from the Longines BelleArti collection for guests to experience the elegance and femininity of the new series. The new Longines BelleArti collection, with their curved cases, continues to exude the elegance of Longines while creating a new image for the watches. Longines held an event at the International Equestrian Centre to celebrate the birth of this series. Carina Lau, Longines Ambassador, attended the event sporting a new Longines BelleArti watch, which comes with a stainless steel or rose gold case and diamond studded models. The case comes with a subtle engraved design reminiscent of the 20s Art Deco movement. The curved rectangular shape of the case fits seamlessly on the wrist, complementing Carina Lau's grace and elegance to perfection. The top models who presented the Longines BelleArti collection to friends of the media also demonstrated the elegant spirit of the watches exemplarily. Since Longines has always considered elegance an attitude, the brand supports graceful sports where a person's elegance is demonstrated through body language. To this end, Longines invited Karen Mak , Hong Kong 's equestrian representative, to demonstrate a series of equestrian movements. Karen has been riding since she was four and became a member of the Hong Kong equestrian team in 2000. She has won numerous awards, especially in show jumping where her superb technique and rapport with the horse result in a highly technical and elegant performance synonymous with Longines' professional spirit. She was presented with a Longines BelleArti watch as a tribute to the elegant attitude and individuality that represent both the aesthetics of Longines and the sport of riding.
