The Longines museum retraces the fascinating history of the brand known by its winged hourglass logo, throughout the previous centuries. It’s also a witness of the great epic Swiss watch history.
Longines is one of the finest examples of the region's watchmaking industry. The Longines Museum takes visitors on a journey to the heart of the company that has been established in Saint-Imier for more than 190 years. Nearly 400 timepieces, navigational instruments and timekeeping devices illustrate the technical innovations introduced by Longines throughout four thematic sections. Driven by a pioneering spirit, the brand has developed high-precision instruments to meet the needs of the greatest aviators and sports timekeeping. The Longines Museum is an invitation to admire timepieces that combine timeless aesthetics with watchmaking tradition.
