Longines Presence Silver × Yellow Gold Wristwatch L4.819.2.11.7 - Imported with 2-Year Warranty
| Brand History | |
| In 1832, Auguste Agassiz, the brother of naturalist Louis Agassiz, delved into the world of watchmaking at a watch sales company in Santimier, Switzerland, under the name "Agassiz & Co." He successfully expanded the sales network of watches made in domestic industries to America and beyond. In the mid-1850s, Ernest Francillon, Agassiz's nephew, took over the business. Francillon consolidated the manufacturing processes of watches, previously done in separate locations, to improve watchmaking methods. In 1867, at a place called "Longines" on the right bank of the Suze River in the Santimier Valley, the "Longines Factory" was established to assemble and finish watches using mechanical methods in one place. Francillon then brought in young engineer Jack David to develop the necessary machinery to improve the watch manufacturing process. Production continued to expand 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 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 since its inception. Evolving watchmaking technology at the factory gradually built special relationships with the sports world and provided expertise in various fields, including the flagship sports of the 20th century. Since its founding in 1832, Longines has been based in Santimier, Switzerland, continuing to create watches with the themes of "tradition," "elegance," and "performance." | |
