The company was founded in 1867 by Emmanuel Lipmann in Besançon, France. Initially, the brand focused on producing pocket watches, but with technological advancements, it also began producing wristwatches. Over the years, Lip designed and produced approximately 40 different movements for pocket and wristwatches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLIP watches are known for their elegant and timeless design, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. The brand has collaborated with renowned designers and artists such as André Donat (designer of the T18 model) and Roger Tallon (designer of the Mach 2000 model).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the most iconic LIP watches is the \"Baignoire\" model, designed in 1925 by the company's founder. These watches have a rectangular case and a unique crown placement at 12 o'clock. They were worn by famous personalities such as Pablo Picasso and Marilyn Monroe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecenter center hide\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn indelible mark in the watchmaking world\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmong watch collectors, the most sought-after watches are probably those launched in the 1950s and late 1960s. At that time, LIP helped the then practically unknown brand Blancpain with the marketing and sale of their waterproof watches. Models from this period bear not only the Blancpain logo but also the LIP logo on the dial. Moreover, initially, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms series was indeed powered by a Lip R23 movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLIP watches also made history by being the first brand to introduce electric watches in 1952. The watch worn in space in 1961 by Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was powered by a licensed LIP movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVandaag, LIP continues to innovate and produce quality watches that combine elegant design. Their watches are sold in over 70 countries worldwide and are highly popular among watch enthusiasts and collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LIP","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":57304510464348,"sku":"MPS-WATCH-LIP-CH-671015","price":4890.0,"currency_code":"CZK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/5479\/2540\/files\/5ca54b29af9ef9d17f37b4afe377ae87.png?v=1775674701","url":"https:\/\/www.infinitywatches.cz\/en\/products\/lip-churchill-t18-hnedy-reminek","provider":"INFINITY Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
