Longines Silver Watch with a Silver Dial by Stern Freres of Patek Philippe – 1915

Longines Watch Company is an iconic Swiss watchmaker that was founded in 1832 by Auguste Agassiz. The company's original name was Raiguel Jeune & Cie, but it was later renamed Longines after trademarking its famous winged hourglass logo. Longines has become one of the most recognizable and prestigious brands in the watch industry.

The company is renowned for producing exceptional timepieces that are known for their precision and reliability. Longines has been involved in many major sporting events around the world, including the Olympic Games, the Formula One World Championship, and the America's Cup.

Longines has also created many groundbreaking innovations in watchmaking over the years. In 1912, it became the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games, a position it has held ever since. The company invented the Lindbergh Hour Angle watch in 1931, which was specifically designed for Charles Lindbergh to allow him to calculate his longitude during his historic solo flight across the Atlantic.

Longines is also famous for its Ultra Chron movement, an ultra-fast beating movement that kept exceptional time and is highly sought after by collectors.

In addition to producing exceptional timepieces, Longines is also renowned for its exceptional service and dependability. As a former official retailer of Longines watches, our family jewellery store in Los Angeles can attest to the brand's commitment to providing the highest level of service to its customers.

Overall, Longines is a brand that embodies precision, elegance, and innovation, and its watches are highly prized by collectors and watch enthusiasts around the world.
