The machinery inside a watch that keeps things ticking is called the movement or a calibre. A synonym of size, the word ‘calibre’, first used as a watchmaking term in 1715, originally referred to the build of a watch movement—the layout, dimensions, shape and size of the wheels, barrels, bridges and so on. Today the word is a substitute for movement, the complete mechanism with the mainspring, escape wheel, bridges, gear train, and other components, including the rotor in automatic watches. Calibres are either mechanical or quartz-based. While the latter are powered mostly by a battery, the former can either be manual winding, or self-would by an oscillating mass or rotor. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION HISTORYThe ‘Aviator’ watches, manufactured by Longines, are widely known and admired by all. This brand was founded by Aguste Agassiz in the year 1832. It has its headquarters at Saint-Imier in Switzerland. Owned by the Swatch Group of companies, this Swiss based watch making brand was the first watchmaker to register its winged hourglass logo. The brand stands as a symbol of quality. Longines has a reputation of manufacturing watches, which are beautiful and have different appearances. They celebrate their motto, ‘Elegance is an attitude’, in its very essence. The company also holds the record for manufacturing the thinnest Quartz watch (1.98 mm thick). The Longines Saint-Imier Collection is one of those ranges provided by the company, which offers a great blend of traditionalism and beauty. DESIGNThe Longines Saint-Imier Collection L2.563.5.72.7 has been designed for comfort. It provides an ideal formal wear for modern women who love traditional beauty. The round case is made of 18k gold and stainless steel and measures 30 mm in diameter. Its silver dial has white and gold hour and minutes hands pointing at indexes and a highlighted Arabic numeral at 12 o’ clock. The dial is protected with scratch resistant sapphire crystal, increasing the durability of the watch. Provided with a deployment clasp for a better grip, the bracelet features a dual tone of gold and silver and fastens round your wrist elegantly. FEATURESThe beautiful design of the watch is clubbed with great mechanism. A date display window is placed at 3 o’ clock, allowing you to keep pace with the calendar. The watch is powered with an automatic movement, which results in higher precision. It is water resistant up to 30 metres, meaning it can withstand the occasional splash and accidental spill with ease.
