A French story

After his trip to the United States, Fred Lip returned to Europe convinced of the future of the electric watch. It was a real technical challenge. The prototype of the world's first electric wristwatch was presented in 1952 at the Paris Academy of Sciences. This innovation represented "a masterpiece of chronometry and quality". The watch equipped with the revolutionary R27 movement was marketed in 1958. Fred Lip was proud to offer this watch to General de Gaulle and then to General Eisenhower.

Why this watch?

The Timeless Elegance of French Minimalism

This automatic reinterpretation features a 35mm polished gold-plated case with elegant lugs. The slightly silvery sunray white dial illustrates the power of minimalism with its three-hand and date display functions. The Miyota automatic movement offers a 42-hour power reserve, visible through the screwed transparent case back with its meticulous finishes. This automatic version perpetuates the collection's legacy of innovation while modernizing the caliber. Mounted on a brown crocodile-embossed cowhide leather strap with tone-on-tone stitching and a gold-plated pin buckle engraved with the LIP logo, this emblematic watch captivates with its refined simplicity. Popularized over time, it remains a symbol of French elegance and national watchmaking heritage.

Watch history

The prototype of the world's first electric wristwatch was presented in 1952 at the Paris Academy of Sciences by Fred Lip. This innovation, a masterpiece of chronometry, would be commercialized in 1958 with the revolutionary R27 movement, the result of ten years of passionate research. Fred Lip proudly presented this exceptional electric watch to General de Gaulle and then to General Eisenhower. This avant-garde watch, recognized for its rigorous accuracy coupled with its great readability, would be given to heads of state and become "the presidents' watch," worn by Charles de Gaulle, Eisenhower, and Bill Clinton.
