About general de gaulle

A French history

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 to the Académie des Sciences in Paris. 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. This General de Gaulle model is the result of ten years of research carried out with efficiency and passion to develop the first electric watch that would pave the way for quartz watches.
