About Ingersoll Watches –‘THE TRUE ORIGINAL’ : 

Sometimes it can feel like we’re living in an era besotted with newness. Within months of their anticipated release, fashion items, technology and a myriad sparkly products are forsaken for what seems like an endless stream of superseding usurpers. In this fast, cut-throat market place, it can appear that objects just aren't built to last anymore, and if they are, they become quickly outdated, their longevity equating to obselation in the eyes of the masses. 

Thankfully, following the latest trends is not a consumer’s only option. For the discerning buyer, it is often not the latest fandangle item on the market that is the most enticing option, but the timeless classic, the proud and venerable staying power, that holds the most appeal. Here at York Jewellers, we believe that timeless design trumps newness any day of the week, a sentiment manifested in our elegant collection of Ingersoll watches. 

Founded in 1892 by Robert H Ingersoll and his brother Charles, the Ingersoll Watch Company is among the oldest and most renowned in America, possessing a rich and inspiring history. Pioneers in their industry, the Ingersoll brothers followed a simple and admirable mission: to offer their watches to the general public at an affordable price, whilst maintaining real quality and credibility.

Initially, each Ingersoll watch was produced by hand in the New York Factory, but thanks to the brilliance of Henry Ford, Ingersoll succeeded in developing a seamless production line for their pocket and wrist watches, bringing a once unachievable item to the general American public. 

To this day, the Ingersoll Watch Company continues to grow, striving to meet the customer's demand. Over their long history, Ingersoll have proven to be forward thinking watch manufacturers, developing the following notable innovations:

• The smallest existing pocket watch.
• ‘RADIOLITE’: the world's first glow in the dark watch.
• The first ever military watch, which was designed with the involvement of the armed forces.
• The first character watch, which was commissioned by Disney to feature Mickey Mouse.

Ingersoll watches have been sold continuously since their inception and today the Ingersoll brand is renowned the world over. Ingersoll continues to maintain the ethos of the Ingersoll brothers and is proud to present a new range of quality, precision timepieces of which the Grafton is exemplary. So, what are you waiting for enter the Time For Dad competition, today, for the chance to win your dad a Father's Day gift he'll never forget.
