The Ingersoll Brand – American, Exceptional, High-Quality
Watches from the brand Ingersoll have long been popular timepieces that impress not only with their exceptional design, but also with their high quality and especially precise, reliable movements at a highly attractive price. The Ingersoll brand draws on an extensive range and therefore offers the right model for the widest variety of needs – from luxury watches to rugged outdoor or diving watches.
Ingersoll draws on a long history
The Ingersoll company looks back on a very long history and was founded as early as 1892 by the Ingersoll brothers in New York. The small family business initially focused on selling watches produced by other manufacturers. In 1896, however, the brothers introduced the legendary one-dollar watch, a pocket watch sold for one dollar under the model name “Yankee”. The Dollar Watch became so popular that several million of these watches were produced. Famous figures such as Thomas Drake, Thomas A. Edison, T. Roosevelt, and James Dean wore and loved their Ingersoll watches. Today, the main headquarters of Ingersoll Ltd. is in London, but the manufacturer now sells its extensive watch range worldwide.
What is so special about Ingersoll watches?
Watches from the Ingersoll brand are considered luxury watches because of their exceptional design and high-quality inner workings. Only the finest materials are used in the production of Ingersoll watches. The watches are extremely robust and durable. In particular, the watches designed specifically for outdoor use and diving can withstand strong shocks and impacts. All models in the Ingersoll collection are equipped with an automatic movement, which makes handling a mechanical watch exceptionally convenient. The rotor is powered simply by the movement of the arm, and thanks to the power reserve, it keeps running for one or two days after the watch is taken off. Automatic watches therefore do not require a battery.
Current collection
Although Ingersoll always stays true to its style and retains its classic design in its wristwatches, modern trends also leave their mark on Ingersoll watches. Watches from the Bison series reflect the spirit of the times and impress
with a striking look. In this collection, large cases are combined with rugged leather straps or eye-catching metal bracelets. This creates expressive, dominant watch models that reflect the wild and exciting side of the American lifestyle. Models in the Active Watches series are especially suitable for sporty, ambitious people. The watches in this series are particularly robust and therefore especially well suited as sports and outdoor watches.
Ingersoll's women's watch models also offer an exceptional design. Although Ingersoll primarily launched men's watches on the market, there are now also several Ingersoll women's watches that stand out in particular through playful details and the deliberate use of color.
