All About Longines Heritage Watches

Longines has been known for its affordable and noteworthy watches for over 180 years. Its distinctive winged hourglass logo is one of the most recognizable logos in the world. 

The company was established in the year 1832 by businessman Auguste Agassiz. Along with his two partners and later his family, Auguste had successfully made the brand the world’s top watch manufacturer with its superior quality timepieces. Later the company was renamed “Longines” as we can see today. Its name was taken from the area the company later purchased for its manufacturing, “Les Longines” which meant “the long meadows”. 

At the time when the watchmaking industry was using key wound mechanisms for the pocket watches, Longines brought to the world a brand new mechanism that had changed the whole industry. The company launched the world’s first pocket watch that can be wound by its crown instead of a key. This revolutionary invention has made the brand one of the most recognised watchmakers in the world. 

Longines has been producing watches in a wide range of styles and purposes. All the Longines watches are well crafted to perfection with reasonable prices. With its rich history in the field of aviation, the Longines pilot watches and tool watches are considered as the signature of the brand. 

Amongst its most popular collections, the Longines Heritage. This is a notable collection that pays tribute to the legacy of Longines. Incorporating the modern technologies, it revives the historic designs of the vintage Longines models in a refined look. Upholding its historic achievements, these distinct characteristics of this watch have attracted massive attention of watch lovers over the globe and brought significant success to the brand. 

The Longines Heritage collection pays tribute to its rich heritage and watchmaking accomplishments by reissuing its classic models with modern features. The collection offers a wide range of vintage-inspired sports watches and tool watches in fields of military, pilot, and diving. Some models in the collection can even be traced back to its first watch of 1832, carrying the classic vintage look of that era, with advanced calibers and complications of the modern days. 

The brand has continued to bring back the timeless models that took part in their glorious watchmaking history. Its sporty models such as diving and military watches are particularly popular like the Heritage Military Marine Nationale, and the Legend Diver Watch. Its classic dress watches, such as Longines Heritage Classic Tuxedo, have also gained a huge group of admirers over these years.
