About Lip
From the 19th century to the present, Lip has always known how to innovate by proposing models ahead of their time. The history of this brand begins in 1867 with Emmanuel Lipmann in his watchmaking workshop in Besançon. The first phosphorescent dials followed in 1904 and then the Lip name was deposited in 1907. Later, General de Gaulle and President Eisenhower were offered the first electric watch in the world. In the 20th century, Lip embarked on the adventure of design and collaborated with many artists such as Isabelle Hebey, François De Baschmakoff, Roger Tallon, etc., creating particularly avant-garde models.
