Longines Watches

Founded in Saint-Imier, Switzerland in 1832, Longines holds a long-standing reputation for prestigious precision. The company developed its first chronograph watch in 1878, which earned Longines an exceptional reputation in the world of equestrian sports. The company would go on to be the official timekeeper of F1 racing, the French Open, and alpine skiing competitions, among other major sporting events. After completing the first non-stop solo flight across the Atlantic in 1927, Charles Lindbergh worked with Longines to create a navigational watch for aviators. Other notable Longines owners include Albert Einstein, Humphrey Bogart, and Audrey Hepburn. For anyone seeking sophisticated timepiece design with a historic pedigree, look to Longines.
