Wittnauer, founded in 1885 by Albert Wittnauer, has a distinguished history in American watchmaking. The company gained prominence for producing reliable timepieces for aviators, explorers, and military personnel. Wittnauer's partnership with Longines in the early 20th century further enhanced its reputation for quality and precision. The Professional Chronograph line, developed in the mid-20th century, exemplifies Wittnauer's commitment to creating functional tool watches that could withstand the rigors of professional use while maintaining accuracy and legibility.
