Are Longines watches assembled in China?

Not assembled domestically.

The assembly of watches is not as simple as the assembly of ordinary digital products. Genuine Longines watches are produced in Switzerland, and those assembled and produced in China are definitely fake watches.

In addition, there is no Hong Kong or European version of Longines watches. It is produced in Switzerland. The Hong Kong version or the European version are all fakes, and the movements are all domestically produced. There are no versions of real watches.

If the Hong Kong market sells brand-name watches from Switzerland, other European countries, Japan and other places, these are luxury goods and will be subject to high tariffs in the mainland, so the price is tens of thousands of yuan or more. There will be a big gap between the price of luxury watches in Hong Kong and the price in China.

The development history of Longines watches:

In 1832, Auguste Agassiz came to Soimia (Saint-lmier) worked in a small watch shop in a small village. Soon he took over the entire shop and renamed it "Agassiz & Compagnie".

In 1867, Francillon established the first Longines watch factory and produced the first key-controlled pocket watch, winning the bronze medal at the Universal Exhibition in Paris, France. The first Longines watch was born.

On May 10, 1880, Longines officially became a registered trademark in Switzerland and is the oldest trademark in the Swiss watchmaking industry.

In 1969, it once again took the lead in producing the world's first quartz watch. Another achievement of the LONGINES watch is the use of the characteristics of quartz vibration to produce a jumping display, becoming the first timepiece to use a liquid crystal display.

At 4:00 pm on May 27, 1889, Longines’ flying-wing hourglass trademark was officially registered in the Product Intellectual Property Office of Bourne, with patent number 2684. Since then, the flying-wing hourglass has become a prominent image of Longines.

In 1904, the Longines Express Monarch was praised by an American Antarctic expedition team. During the 429-day journey, Longines' timepiece could maintain a difference of only four seconds, with amazing accuracy.

At the 1912 Federal Games in Basso, the Longines chronograph accurately calculated the speed of 3,500 athletes and once again became the target of praise. In view of the fact that the timepieces produced at the Longines watch factory are highly accurate and have contributed a lot to navigation research, they have been issued high-level certificates to prove this.

Later, in 1964, Longines won the Observatory Champion Award with the world’s smallest electronic quartz marine timepiece.

In 1938, Longines produced the second navigation watch, the Siderograph. In 1945, the L22A movement was created, symbolizing the birth of Longines' first fully automatic men's movement.

The "Longines Circle" promotional campaign in the 1950s. In 1953, Longines launched a series of innovative promotional activities named "Longines Circle".

In 1979, LONGINES launched the thinnest watch in the world at that time, with a body thickness of less than two millimeters.

In 1982, Longines launched the Agassiz “Agassiz” slim gold watch series to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Longines. This series of watches is only 3 mm thick and equipped with waterproof function. Later, in 1983, through continuous research on miniaturized components, Longines launched the L961 "bagUette" small movement specially designed for women's watches, with a thickness of only 1.75 mm.

In 1984, Longines launched the Conquest watch, equipped with a Very High Precision movement, which was a major development for Longines.
