One of the most respected names among Swiss Watch manufacturers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Longines watch making origins date to 1832 in Saint-Imier, Switzerland. In 1867 a new watch factory was built at a location called "Les Longines" and the legendary Longines watches brand was born.
Symbolized since 1867 by the winged hourglass logo still present on each Longines watch, Longines enjoys a rich heritage rivaled by few watch manufacturers. The first Longines watch in 1867 was also the first watch to be wound and set with a crown. Longines was the first watchmaker to produce a mechanical wristwatch in 1905. It was Longines which timed Charles Lindbergh's 1927 non-stop transatlantic flight from New York to Paris. Lindbergh later designed the "hour angle air navigation" watch for Longines which has been faithfully reproduced in the design of the current Longines model L26014112. Famed aviator Emelia Earhart was also equipped with a Longines watch during her pioneering flights. Longines watches have provided the timing for nearly every Olympic Games since 1952. Longines' record of ten "Grand Prix" and 28 "Medailles d'Or" watch making awards has never been equaled by any other watchmaker.
Today, Longinesfocus is to produce classically styled timepieces which combine the best modern Swiss watch making technology with designs that recalls the elegance and style of earlier times. Longines watches consciously and successfully evokes the style of 1940s and 1950s film stars such as Audrey Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart who wore a Longines watch almost identical to those in the current Evidenza Collection.
Currently, Longines offers seven major collections: La Grande Classique de Longines, Longines DolceVita,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Longines Lungomare, LonginesFlagship, Longines Evidenza, Longines watch Masters and the Heritage Collection.
