Longines is cited as having the oldest registered logo for a watch manufacturing company. In fact, the winged hourglass celebrated its 170th year in 2002. Considering that it was founded by Ernest Francillon in St. Imier, Switzerland back in the 1830s, there is no doubt that Longines is one of the oldest watch manufacturers in existence. The long history of Longines goes well beyond its historic logo, or original founding.

Longines watches are especially favored by explorers, aviators, and pioneers all over the world. Thanks to an expression of interest by the American aviator Charles Lindbergh, Longines manufactured a watch that would be appreciated by all in air navigation. The watch created under Lindbergh's suggestion is still being sold today.
Longines has been the official timekeeper for the World Olympics a number of times, dating back to 1892. The company made another mark in the world of sports in 1912 when it introduced the utilization of electric wire in the activating and stopping of timing mechanisms. Since then, Longines acted as the timekeeper for other major sports events besides the Olympics, such as the Alpine World Cup competition, Concours Hippique International (equestrian sports) and the Tour de France.
Aside from watches with aviators and sports enthusiasts in mind, Longines manufactures watches for women with a penchant for style and activity. The most popular of which is the Dolce Vita collection. The collection embodies the words “simply elegant” with its rectangular face and straightforward hour makers. The dial is available in black, white, or pink mother of pearl. The case is usually made of stainless steel with inlaid diamonds and can come with either a stainless steel bracelet or a lacquered black or white leather strap. There are also cases made from gold with .32 carat diamonds, which comes with matching gold bracelets as well.
