Longines are known the world over for providing the highest-quality Swiss timepieces. Founded by Auguste Agassiz in 1832, this Swiss brand has built a reputation for delivering expertise, tradition, elegance and performance in each timepiece they produce. However, as with any other high-precision instrument, in order to keep a Longines watch functioning at its very best, maintaining its reliability and appearance, it needs to be serviced on a regular basis by a trusted specialist.
Whether you have a sporty Hydroconquest, a classic Heritage or traditional Longines 1832, our team – led by our expert Master Watchmaker – is experienced in the repair and maintenance of any luxury Longines timepiece.
