Following the success of the acclaimed debut season Rising Above, Longines and the Longines Global Champions Tour are proud to announce the next chapter in this original content franchise: Season Two – The Art of Time.

Produced once again by Longines Global Champions Tour in partnership with Longines, The Art of Time expands the Rising Above narrative beyond the arena to uncover the artistry that defines both elite sport and timeless creation. Through cinematic storytelling and intimate portraits, the series celebrates the shared values of precision, patience, and elegance -those that unite the world of show jumping and the heritage of Longines watchmaking.
Where the first season of Rising Above told stories of perseverance and human resilience, The Art of Time turns its gaze to the craft behind greatness -the devotion, detail, and discipline that transform skill into art. From riders and grooms to farriers, designers, and tailors, each episode captures the rhythm and beauty of lives dedicated to perfecting their craft.
