LONGINES Watches

   Longines was founded in 1832 by Auguste Agassiz. During the 1850s, Agassiz’s nephew Ernest Francillon took over the business. Francillon purchased two adjoining plots of land at a place locally known as Les Longines on the right bank of the River Suze that flows in the Saint-Imier valley and setup Longines factory. Longines watches have carried on the heritage and symbol of horological innovation and expertise, which have captured the hearts of many royal princesses, sports figures and artists.
