Lip

Founded in 1867 by Emmanuel Lipmann in Besançon, France, LIP is one of the most iconic and influential French watchmaking brands in history. Initially, the company specialized in making pocket watches and became known for its precision and high-quality craftsmanship. Over the years, LIP has been at the forefront of innovation in the watch industry, introducing cutting-edge technologies and design concepts.

In the 20th century, LIP played a significant role in the evolution of mechanical watches and became a leader in the field of sports and aviation timepieces. The brand’s bold designs and technical prowess made it a favorite among adventurers, pilots, and explorers. One of its most famous releases was the LIP Nautic-Ski, a revolutionary diver’s watch introduced in the 1960s, which combined stylish design with technical reliability.
