In the mid-1850s, Ernest Francillon, Agassiz's nephew, took over the management. Francillon consolidated the separate manufacturing processes of watches into one location to improve the watchmaking methods. In 1867, at a place called \"Longines\" on the right bank of the Suze River (flowing through the Saint-Imier valley), the \"Longines Factory\" was established where watch assembly and finishing could be done in a mechanical way in one place. Francillon then brought in a young engineer from the family, Jacques David, to develop the necessary machinery to improve the watch manufacturing process. Production continued to expand constantly until the 1930s. By 1911, the \"Longines Factory\" employed over 1,100 workers and was exporting its products worldwide. Longines' technical research efforts were rewarded in various ways, winning over 10 Grand Prix awards by the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition, establishing itself as the \"most awarded brand.\" In 1989, Francillon registered the name Longines and the winged hourglass logo as trademarks. Longines is a brand that has been registered with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and continues to use the same registered trademark and logo as in the past. Evolving watchmaking technology at the factory gradually established a special relationship with the world of sports, providing expertise in various fields including the flagship sports of the 20th century. Since its founding in 1832, Longines has been based in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, continuing to create watches with the themes of \"tradition,\" \"elegance,\" and \"performance.\"\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"font-weight:800; padding:5px;background:#d9d9d9;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eLongines, since its establishment in 1832, has been based in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, and is a brand that continues to create watches with the themes of \"tradition,\" \"elegance,\" and \"performance.\"\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #5d5d5d;font-weight:600;\"\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 2 years\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #5d5d5d;font-weight:600;\"\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;\"\u003eMay 20, 2025\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #5d5d5d;font-weight:600;\"\u003eRetail Price\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e¥ 193,000.00 JPY\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"LONGINES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42184023572564,"sku":"L4.309.4.97.6","price":194687.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/7401\/5828\/files\/L4.309.4.97.6_1.jpg?v=1773112493","url":"https:\/\/www.ippojapanwatch.com\/ja\/products\/longines-womens-metal-belt-watch-parallel-imported-with-2-year-warranty-l4-309-4-97-6","provider":"IPPO JAPAN WATCH ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
