We seldom see these early Longines Campaign Style watches. And, never in this fine condition. The dial on this watch was likely produced for them, by the worlds finest Swiss Dial House known as Stern Freres. In the early 1930's due to the Great Depression Patek Philippe, the worlds most famous watch company filed for bankruptcy. Stern purchased the Patek Philippe and still owns the marque today. This watch is still fitted with its original blued steel screws holding in the strap bars attaching the strap. It also appears to have the original crown and the hands are done in the classic Breguet Moon Style, with Breguet numbers as well. If you are a serious collector this is a watch worth considering.

In 1846, Raigeul and Morel retired from the watch industry, leaving Agassiz as sole company head. Several years later, Agassiz brought in his bright, enterprising nephew, trained economist Ernest Francillon, into the business. Francillon was the mastermind behind several impressive innovations that would distinguish the company from its competitors. In 1880, Francillon trademarked the Longines name and its winged hourglass logo. The winged hourglass is a symbol of precision and timekeeping, and it has become one of the most recognizable logos in the watch industry. In 1912, Longines became the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games. The company has held this position ever since, and it has been involved in every Olympic Games since then. Longines has also been the official timekeeper of many other major sporting events, including the World Championships in Athletics, the Formula One World Championship, and the America's Cup. In 1931, Longines invented the Lindbergh Hour Angle watch...
