At this year’s Prix de Diane in Chantilly (France), Longines introduced The Mentalist’s Simon Baker as their “Ambassador of Elegance.”

This is the second year in a row Longines partners with the 2,100-meter horse racing event. Longines also unveiled its new line, the Saint-Imier Collection, at the event.

The sumptuous setting of the Château de Chantilly and its racecourse was a dream backdrop for the first photo-shoot featuring Simon Baker with the Swiss watch brand.

Simon Baker joins the family of international Longines Ambassadors that comprises British actress Kate Winslet, Andre Agassi and Stefanie Graf, Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Asian stars Chi Ling Lin and Aaron Kwok.
