In 1912 Longines introduced the principle of an electric wire, which at the start and finish of a race, activated and stopped the timing mechanism.
It has since been appointed official timekeeper for many international sports events, including many winter and summer Olympic Games.
Longines also timed Charles Lindbergh's first solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean and, subsequently developed the Hour Angle watch according to a design drawn by Lindbergh himself.
