Watch Repair and Clock Repair Shop
Tel.: 617-812-6303 233 Washington St. Brookline, MA 02445Longines has been driven by a passion for innovation since its inception in 1832. The Swiss company has always been based in the small town of Saint-Imier deep within the Jura Mountains, and the stunning scenery provides all the inspiration needed for exemplary timepieces. Founder Auguste Agassiz and his nephew Ernest Francillon skillfully turned a small watch workshop into a state-of-the-art factory and in the process became pioneers in mechanizing the production of Swiss watches.
The winged hourglass logo that has accompanied every Longines timepiece since 1867 remains a mark of premium quality to this day. Now sold in more than 150 countries, the timepieces continue to be internationally embraced thanks to an unwavering dedication to details and precision timekeeping. Village Watch Center is pleased to offer superior Longines watch repair services for the company's devotees.
The company's initial foray into advanced timekeeping instruments came with the first chronograph pocket watch for timing sporting events in 1878. Sports are integral to the company's history, with U.S. horse racing events utilizing Longines timepieces in the late 19th century and well into the 20th century. Beyond horse racing, Longines timepieces have been relied upon by aviation legends Amelia Earhart, Elinor Smith, and Howard Hughes, just to name a few. The company's shift from pocket watches to wristwatches was accompanied by numerous world firsts, including the first wrist chronograph in 1913, the first wristwatch with a rotating bezel in 1931, and the introduction of the electronic quartz clock in 1954.
It's thus no wonder that the company is known as the Official Timekeeper of World Championships and maintains a close relationship with International Sports Federations. World-famous individuals are comfortable relying upon their timepieces on account of this extended history of excellence. Plus, every single serial number continues to be carefully recorded by the company to ensure authenticity and exemplary performance.
