Longines Flagship White Wristwatch Parallel Import 2-Year Warranty L4.774.3.21.7
| Brand Story | |
| In 1832, Auguste Agassiz, brother of the renowned naturalist Louis Agassiz, delved into the world of watchmaking at a watch sales company in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, under the name "Agassiz & Co." He successfully expanded the distribution network of watches made through domestic industry at the time, reaching as far as America and other continents. In the mid-1850s, Ernest Francillon, Agassiz's nephew, took over the business. Francillon consolidated the scattered manufacturing processes of watches into one location, striving to improve the methods of watchmaking. In 1867, at a place called "Longines" on the right bank of the Suze River in the Saint-Imier Valley, the "Longines Factory" was established, where watch assembly and finishing could be done in a mechanical manner in one place. Francillon later brought in his young relative, engineer Jacques David, to develop the necessary machinery to enhance the watchmaking process. Production continued to expand relentlessly until the 1930s. By 1911, the "Longines Factory" employed over 1,100 workers and was shipping its products worldwide. Longines' technical research efforts were rewarded in various ways, winning over 10 Grand Prix awards by the time of the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition, establishing itself as the "most awarded brand." In 1989, Francillon registered the name Longines and the winged hourglass logo as trademarks. Longines, registered with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), is a brand that uses the same registered trademark and logo as it did in the past, making it the oldest brand to do so. Evolving watchmaking technology at the factory gradually established special relationships with the world of sports, providing expertise in various fields including the flagship sports of the 20th century. Since its founding in 1832, Longines has been based in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, continuing to create watches with the themes of "tradition," "elegance," and "performance." | |
