Maurice Herzog, a friend of Fred Lipp, also contributed greatly to the success of this watch. Maurice Herzog was the first mountaineer to summit Annapurna. The identity of this watch comes from the Himalayas, the mountain range that contains the world's highest peaks. A 1959 advertisement states that the watch was chosen by nine out of ten of the mountaineering world's greats for its incredible resistance to the elements and shock. The history of LIP began in 1867 when Emmanuel Isaac Lippmann established a watch factory in Besancon in eastern France, which borders Switzerland. As France's leading watch brand, it is also known as the president's watch, and has been used by former presidents Charles de Gaulle and Macron, as well as former British Prime Minister Churchill, and former U.S. presidents Eisenhower and Clinton. It has been loved by many celebrities to this day.
