The Longines Paris Eiffel Jumping was in 2017 on the Champ de Mars with the Eiffel Tower in Perspective. In 2018 (July 5-6-7), it will return with Drums and Trumpets for the Parisian Stage of the Prestigious Circuit of the Longines Global Champions Tour. Longines' Passion for Equestrian Sports dates back to 1878, when it produced a Chronograph engraved with a Jockey and his Mount. Three Years later, it can be found on American Racecourses, adopted by Horse Enthousiasts. In 1912, the Company partnered for the First Time with an International Show Jumping Competition. Today, Longines' Involvement in Equestrian Sports includes Show-Jumping, Flat Racing, Endurance and Eventing Competitions.
