Ingersoll 1892 is one of the oldest American watch brands, founded by Robert H. and Charles H. Ingersoll in New York. The brothers were pioneers in watchmaking and, thanks in part to Henry Ford, developed an automated production line for pocket watches and wristwatches in 1892.

The brand became particularly famous for the "Dollar Watch," of which over one million units have been sold.

Today, Ingersoll 1892 stands for groundbreaking innovations and a rich history in watchmaking.

Founded in New York in 1892, Ingersoll made the watch affordable for everyone. Today the focus is on open automatic movements.
