LIP - MANUFACTURE GÉNÉRALE HORLOGÈRE

An elegant watchmaking house, the LIP brand was born in 1867. Founded by Emmanuel Lipmann, a 23-year-old watchmaker's son, the company began by opening a boutique in Besançon. Throughout his life, the man would continue to modernize his models and techniques, advances that would be carried on by his descendants. Over the course of its existence, the brand has marked important historical events, dressed great men - such as General De Gaulle - and evolved with the times. Elegantly designed and resolutely modern, the LIP watch has a well-deserved reputation as the brand of the world's greats. Today, the main production site is in Besançon, but the head office is based in Lectoure in the Gers.
