Have you ever thought what kind of watch a great scientist collected? When speaking scientist, I believe no body will ignore Albert Einstein. Because he is a great scientist committing all his life to his work and peace, he is highly respected by many people. Today I will introduce two Longines watches collected by Albert Einstein. Let’s discover what watch Einstein likes, thus knowing more about this great scientist.
One of the two Longines watch is an elegant rose gold timepiece. On October 16 2008 this watch was auctioned Antiquorum in New York. The Longines watch belonging to Einstein was created in 1929, and perhaps in 1931 was owned by Einstein in Los Angeles. Let’s see the details of the watch: tonneau case, pure and white dial, 12 simple Arabic numerals, 60-second counter at 6, thin skeleton hands, black leather strap, case back engraved with “Professor Albert Einstein, Los Angeles, February 16 1931”
The other timepiece is the Longines pocket watch made in September 6 1943. Einstein gave it to his eldest son in his wish. This watch also looks plain but smart and clean. As one of the things that treasured by Einstein, this Longines pocket watch still keeps good time. Can you imagine all the happy and sad time Einstein spent with this watch?
