Longines
Founded in 1832 by Auguste Agassiz, Longines is one of the oldest and most respected Swiss watch brands, known for its elegant timepieces, precision sports timing, and strong aviation heritage. The brand's winged hourglass logo is the oldest registered trademark for a watchmaker. Famous models include the HydroConquest, the Master Collection, and the Spirit, a tribute to pioneering aviators. Longines has produced numerous iconic in-house movements, such as the Calibre 13ZN and 30CH chronographs, highly prized by collectors. Longines continues to embody Elegance is an attitude," blending tradition with contemporary appeal."
Spring
Springs are used throughout a watch movement to provide tension, return force, indexing, or stored energy for different mechanisms. They can be found in winding systems, setting mechanisms, chronographs, calendars, and other functions. Watch springs are commonly replaced when weak, bent, broken, corroded, or no longer providing the correct pressure for reliable operation.
