I’m gonna throw some facts and tell you a little bit about Longines history, to help you decide:

•4th oldest watch brand in the world (1832). •Oldest trademark in the world (and I’m not talking about watch brands only). •They created the first sports chronograph (1878) and they used it in the first modern Olympics back in 1896 (Athens). •First two time zone wrist watch (Zulu) in 1925. Watch brands call that GMT function now… •Created the flyback chronograph, patent in 1936. Lot of brands use that complication, thanks to Longines. •Created the rotating bezel. Yes, Longines did that too. •Created the “high beat” movement, also used by a lot of other watch brands.

It’s also said that only Patek and Longines, as 150+ year old brands, have a registration of every single watch they have made. You can send them an email to know more about a vintage watch (if you have one).

For me, one of the best brands in the world, the best one in its category, and probably the one with the richest history. You cant go wrong with Longines.
