Longines, as the Official Partner of the legendary French Open at Roland-Garros since 2007, has consolidated its links with the world of tennis by choosing Andre Agassi the same year and Stefanie Graf in 2008 as Ambassadors of Elegance. The couple share a love of excellence, elegance and beauty with the Swiss watch brand; together they embody the brand’s values and slogan perfectly: “Elegance is an attitude”.
